category tree configuration?

[artyrachel]

looking to customize our category tree a little more (currently just using images vs. the words). is there a way to add some space between certain category links. it's like this now:

Cat1
Cat2
Cat3
Cat4

we want it to look like this:

Cat1
Cat2

Cat3
Cat4


anyway to do that? 4.24 with OUI.

TIA

There are a few ways. You can include spacer graphics after names, or build your own tree using HTML and place that in the Category tree header (you'd need to comment out the original tree by putting comment tags opening in the header and closing in the footer.

We offer a customizable function for the category tree. You have to provide the layout and based on it we build the function which will dynamically display your tree.

Contact me OFF Forum if interested.

where would we put the html for that? after the image directory of where we want the space?

[PCINET - Andreas]

In the Category Header section of OpenUI.

REM Your category tree wouldn't be dynamic. Any changes on your categories wouldn't show on your site.

Sure. Create a new category called </a><br><br><a href="javascript:;:> and move the category where you want the spacing. Adjust as needed

thanks! that seemed to do the trick. will it cause any kind of problem, though, because it's setup as a category?

EDIT:
it does seem to be effecting the category below it. the category below the blank one won't open. says "error on page." ?? i just changed the category to be <br> instead
