Making catalogue images larger?

Hi!

Is there any way to make the images in the catalogue larger? Currently, when you visit the catalogue, you see 4 items per line. The images tend to be a little tinier than I'd like. Is it possible to have 3 items per line, and have the images themselves be larger?

I don't think this is a theme dependent issue - it seems that the standard theme, plus some others all have similar behaviour.

So in essence,what I'm after is Latest Products, and all Category pages should have 3 items per line, with larger images so people have a greater idea of what they're getting before they click on the item.

Is this possible?

Cheers!

as far as the image size you can set that in the admin settings. If you want to change the number of items per row you'll have to edit the .tpl files for the different modules etc. There are posts on how to do that.

just edit the tpls and find
$i + 4
and change to
$i + 3
for less images per row

Thanks!

In the admin settings, I made the images larger. And then got down into the template files and changed the iterators.

Thanks again!

Cheers.

Is there any way to do this via VQMOD? I hate editing core files.
Also if I have a custom theme installed, would this change the location of the files I need to edit?
Once again thank you to the community for great support.
;D

I highly recommend OC Bootstrap Pro for OC1.5.6.4/5 based sites. Once you get to grips with Bootstrap there's lots you can do with the theme. It's very flexible.
