Hello all,

I have a simple question.
I want to make the 'grid' view when showing the products default instead of the 'list' view.

Does anyone know's how to fix this real quick?

Thanks!

I thought changing the core was not advisable? Would it be better to use VQMOD and create a search and replace XML file? This way the core does not get changed.

I appreciate this is just a simple change but when it comes time to update the core files again you may not remember.

obviously vqmod is preferable and highly recommended, and you are supposed do it through vQmod , but you can't expect me (or other users ) to provide answer in vqmod format...

I do not mean to sound like 'one of those guys' but why not?

Why not provide a vqmod answer alongside the other answer?

good question, you know its a community forums no one is being paid to answer , everyone is providing answers on their free time , without any incentive . if you want vqmod , try to make it yourself, then ask for problems you are facing or commercial support is always there.
