3 columns with left menu

Hi oelie,
You can create a new block and assign it to the left side:
-- Firstly, you should go to:

Code:

\app\design\frontend\default\jm_feronistemplate\catalog

+ create a new folder inside this dir named: ‘navigation’
+ inside this ‘navigation’ folder, create a file name: sidenav.phtml

Code:

<div class="block block-layered-nav block-hilite-blank">
    <div class="block-title">
        <strong><span><?php echo $this->__('Product Category') ?></span></strong>
    </div>
    <div class="block-content clearfix">
        <ul id="ja-sidenav">
        <?php foreach ($this->getStoreCategories() as $_category): ?>
            <?php echo $this->drawItem($_category) ?>
        <?php endforeach ?>
        </ul>
    </div>
    <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('topLeftLinks') ?>
</div>

-- Next, go to dir:

Code:

\app\design\frontend\default\jm_feronis\layout\page.xml

Scroll down to approx line 120, add a new reference which define a block call sidenav you create above:

Code:

<reference name="left">      <---- set to right if you want to display in right side
					<block type="catalog/navigation" name="catalog.rightcat" template="catalog/navigation/sidenav.phtml"  after="-" />
        </reference>

I don’t know if i need to make an new item but one question.

if you go to the product items everything is showed at the right side (basket, viewed items etc..) is it possible to put this at the left side ? I have searched and put some items left but nothing changes

Hi,
You could go to file: \app\design\frontend\default\jm_feronis\layout\cat alog.xml
and make a quick search for path: <!-- Product view -->
underneath this path, there should be a reference like:

Code:

<reference name="root">
     <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/2columns-right.phtml</template></action>       <<< change to 'left'
</reference>

Hope this helps.
Regards.

I had changed your line but I never had this problem before but only after an index refresh te menu apprears at the left side.

Strange but it works

Thankx Thankx Hien for your help

Hallo,
so there must be a misunderstanding between you and me
That page that you want to change layout is Category View page
http://www.picto-gram.be/pictogram/e…standaard.html
NOT Product View page:
http://www.picto-gram.be/pictogram/e…p-sticker.html
My above solution is for Product View page

To change Category layout, please add new reference underneath reference for catalog:

Code:

<!-- Mage_Catalog -->
  <reference name="root">
    <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/2columns-left.phtml</template></action>
  </reference> 

  <reference name="top.menu">
     <block type="catalog/navigation" name="catalog.topnav" template="catalog/navigation/top.phtml"/>
  </reference>

Let me know whether this helps or not

I won’t listen, so i changed everthing in app 2/colums/left now it’s listening 😉
