Hi Jim,

The Store Menu module is used for select a category. When a user click on a category, the corresponding products are displayed in the Store Catalog module. If you want, you can pre-select a category. Select Settings in the menu module of the Catalog. In the section Catalog Settings > General Settings, check Use Default Category and select the default category in the combobox.

Concerning the templating system, by default the template files, css and images are located inside the folder ...\DesktopModules\Store\Templates. If you need a different style for each portal using the Store module, go to the Store Admin module and check Portal Templates. In this case all needed files are copied inside ...\Portals\n\Store\Templates (where n is the portal number). By default, for display products by category the template ProductList.htm is used. You can copy this file to an other file name, then modify it. This is just HTML and tokens, if you don't want the thumbnails delete the line <td class="NewProduct-Image">[IMAGE]</td>. If you want display the description, replace the token [SUMMARY] by [DESCRIPTION] and so on. When this will be done, select Settings in the menu module of the Catalog. In the section Catalog Settings > General Settings > Category Product Settings, choose your new template file name in the List Template combobox.

Here the list of available tokens: IMAGE, MANUFACTURER, MODELNUMBER, MODELNAME, TITLE, LINKDETAIL, LINKDETAILIMG, SUMMARY, WEIGHT, HEIGHT, LENGTH, WIDTH, SURFACE, VOLUME, DIMENSIONS, PRICE, VATPRICE, PURCHASE, PURCHASEIMG, ADDTOCART, ADDTOCARTIMG, DESCRIPTION, LOCALE, TEMPLATESBASEURL, IMAGESBASEURL, PRODUCTDETAILURL. Every token must be surrounded by brackets, like [IMAGE], [MANUFACTURER] and so on. I think that the names are clear?

It would be so particularly appreciated that your messages begin with "Hello" and end with "Thank you" or any other form of politeness. Ask yourself what your reaction would be, if you were approached by me (a total stranger) on the street to ask you something without saying "Hello" nor "Thank you"? After several years of services dedicated to the community, I begin to be tired to read requests without any form of politeness.

That means all those tokens are available for EVERY template file ? How come that i couldn't use the manufacturer token in the ProductDetails.htm template ? Instead of showing the value of manufacturer it simply writes down MANUFACTURER. I thought this was because of different inheritants ? But if you say it is possible then i wonder what i did wrong...
