Hi,

I’ve installed your plug-in, I love MarketPress and I was hoping someone would do a grid shortcode soon. I’ve activated it and added the new code but it is still showing as a signal product list… someone please tell me what I’m doing wrong???

I’m wondering how to use a template tag instead of the shortcode to initiate the grid view. My goal is to replace the default mp_category.php display with the grid display.

Would calling the mp_product_grid_sc() function in the page template be the right place to start?

Love the plug Chris. Curious though how I can use this shortcode on my store itself. I have it on the main page but wanting to do a grid on the individual store pages (ex. http://www.iarugged.com/store/products/category/camping-outdoors-gear/). No tsure how I can go about doing this. Thanks again for the great plugin.

I am working with a project and am using Marketpress lite. I want to use your plugin aswell. But how to show the products list on the home page??

I tried with market-press and got the success. but the pagination is not working on the home page, rather is working on teh product category pages. I want to try out with your plugin to see if the pagination is working or not.

My requirement is only the pagination to work. Do help me please.

Choose the page where you want products to appear, then put in that short code.

What page you you currently have set up to show your product listings? Go to that one, and replace the MarketPress code with the Grid one.

I activated the plugin, but my products still show up in a list format. You mentioned about adding a short code – I just don’t know where I am suppose to put the short code?? (sorry I’m a newbie too)

Sorry, not quite sure what you mean. It should work as in the example above -

[mp_product_grid paginate="true" page="1" per_page="10" order_by="price" order="DESC" category="downloads"]

I’ve had issues with a couple of themes and the css. Glad its working now!

Thanks much! I was baffled as to why this worked perfectly in Thesis but was unusable in the Edu-Clean theme. CSS change did the trick!

Hey Becky, sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean. You just need to upload the zip file, it's only about 3kb, its tiny. It's called marketpress-grid.zip. You can download it directly here - http://allaboutchris.org/?download=MarketPress%20Grid%20plugin.

Hi Chris,
I want the plugin on my home and products page. I would really like to find your plugin on the wordpress plugin page what’s the exact name of it so I can upload it on my dashboard instead of uploading it on my computer because the zip file is too big and it won’t allow me to upload it, it separates as I do that and can’t get all the files together to upload it. Thanks a ton

So, this is probably a newbie question. But how do I dictate the number of columns I want? Right now, I have 9 products that I want on a 3×3 grid, but they are stuck in 4 columns instead.

Thanks!

So I got the short code working, but, how do I change my Products Categories sidebar, so when I click on the category, it loads a page with all of the products in that category in grid mode? Driving me nuts

Hi guys

Has the pagination issue been resolved. I’ve updated to version .3 from Nick’s original grid plugin but neither one shows pagination for my store page.

With or without adding the page=”1″ attribute.

Thanks

Hi Chris,

Firstly, thanks for this plugin – you’ve created a great step forward in Marketpress development. I left you some WPMU points recently – in fact I emptied my pockets for you dude. You’re doing a great job.

Following on from the last comment in the thread, I’m getting some strange display behaviour too, with Woothemes Canvas in a two column (pretty standard setup).

It seems that some items are dropping onto a line by their own, so for a request of 12 items in a grid, I would expect to see them in 3 columns by 4 rows.

Instead I have:

Row 1: 3 items
Row 2: 1 item
Row 3: 2 items
Row 4: 3 items

http://www.urbancomposter.co/qualityproducts/store/

If you can’t see it in this example, I’ll be happy to take a screenshot for you.

I can’t see why this would be the case. Anything you can help me with to shed some light on this would be great, in particular whether my assumptions about the layout are right.

I am viewing this on a Mac, with Safari and Firefox giving the same result.

Cheers,
James

Upload a screenshot to img.ur or similar, and post the link here!

Do you have any products? Sorry, silly question, but if you don’t then it won’t show any!

A client sent me a screenshot showing a botched-up layout of the grid – they use MarketPress Lite. It appears the layout tries to put four products in a row, but when I checked on my win7 with Firefox, Chrome and IE9 AND on MacOS X Snow Leopard, Firefox and Chrome, I can’t replicate it. I see only three products in a row, which is correct. I can’t include the screenshot but if you want to see it let me know where to send it..

Chris, I am pretty new to using shortcodes. I downloaded/installed and activated the plugin. Which page do I use in Marketpress to add the shortcode? On my products page I put in shortcode [mp_product_grid paginate="true" page="1" per_page="20" order_by="price" order="DESC"] When I preview the page it says "No Products." Any ideas?
