Grid View by Default? Opencart 1.5.5.1

Hi all,

I was looking to change the view to a default of grid view, i was advised to change the tpls in the catalog template files, from:

if (view) {
display(view);
} else {
display('list');
}

Replace that with

if (view) {
display(view);
} else {
display('grid');
}

But this doesn't seem to have worked for us on our Manufacturer category pages, possibly because there was no instance of the above code in the manufacturer tpl's. Any help would be extremely welcome,

Luke

Why don't use an extension for that?

It has to be there in manufacturer_info.tpl Do you use default template?

We use the Journal theme?
Possibly we should go and change the default tpl's also?

Actually, we seem to have changed them now, I must have mis-read. Could someone see if our site now defaults on grid view?

I did notice that only a couple of our tpl's start with:
view = $.totalStorage('display');

Whereas the rest don't have .totalStorage, but .Cookie?

It's grid view
