Two columns in Categories view was created by Dycon
Hi everyone, is there a way to have 2 columns in category vie instead of single column...
Right now is like this...
Event 1
Event 2
Event 3
and so on...
What I'd like to do is something like this...
[ Event 1 ] | [ Event 2 ]
[ Event 3 ] | [ Event 4 ]
or...
[ Event 1 ] | [ Event 3 ]
[ Event 2 ] | [ Event 4 ]
it doesn't really matter as long as I can get 2 columns, that would be great...
Thank you

Hi Dycon
In this case, you will need to customize the layout yourself. At the moment, Events Booking doesn't have a columns layout available.

Tuan

Thank you Tuan,
I really don't know how to do that...
I guess I can use the Joomla Category view as a guide...
I'll see what I can do...

Sorry to "re-open" this topic... I just want to let you know that I got this fix... dirty way but is working...
if I remember this correct in previews versions you use tables to display the events, so after the update I was looking at the templates, and I notices that now you are using div tags(much a appreciated), you probably used div tags before I just didn't paio attention to it...
So by using div tag is much easy to make 2 columns...
[event 1][event 2]
[event 3][event 4]
All i did was to add a class to the div tags
.TwocolsEvent {
display:inline-block
margin:0px 5px;
}
and a counter
$ec = 0; // to count events(my own way.... lol
so with that I can count every 2 events I add a div tag at the end of the first row
if ($ec == 2) {
echo '<div class="clearfix SpacerLine"></div>';
$ec = 0; // lets reset the count to 0
} else { $ec ++ // lets sum 1 };
(more or less...)
now my template display event like this:
[event 1] [event 2]
[event 3] [event 4]
Two columns!
nice uh!?
not the best way to do it but it works...

Thanks for sharing the code. Could you send me the link to the page you just customized so that I can see how it works ? If it looks good, I will add this kind of layout into the next release of the extension
.
