Custom Templates

[takumaspin]

I have created a custom template page and product for my site. Is there a way I can edit the code that gets inserted by using the [-- PRODUCT --] code?

Thanks

The product template is what determines what is output for the [-- Product --] tag.

Thanks Jim.

I created a custom product template and it is working in the product list but I am confused about the 'more info' templates.

1. I add a new item.
2. Check the More Info box.
3. Add it to the proper page.
4. Publish.

The product is added using the default template and when I click on the link to the more info page for the product, it is also using the default template.

1. I edit Product Layout for the new item so I get my customized view.
2. Publish.

The product is now using my customized view in the product list. When I click on the more info page, it is still using the default template. From what I read, the more info page is also using the same product template but where do I set this? I can only find one place to set the product template and that is on the Edit Product Layout page.

With some messing around with changing templates a few times, I can somehow get it to use two different templates. One for the product list and one for the more info page but that really isn't a solution.

I guess what I want to say is I need a template for how the product is shown in the list or main product page and also a template for the 'more info' page where the item is shown by itself.

Can you help me?

Thanks!

The more info page is defined as a section in the Product template. Take a look at one of the ShopSite provided templates and look at the Define Moreinformation section.

Thanks Jim, I think I now understand how the more info templates work. At least I got them to work how I want it now. I really appreciate all the help you have been providing me.
