Spacing of products and categories

On this particular page of the site i have my categories floated right with a width of 75%.
I did this so that my CherryPicker filter would fit in on the left side.

The problem I have encountered now is that the css i set for the categories also affects my products causing them to be floated right and 75% wide.

Removing the float:right, width:75% causes some styling called "store" to then take preference making my categories 66.6667% wide.

I have tried several other ways of getting around this problem but I'm not a developer so my solutions are limited to CSS and settings within Joomla.

Ideally i would like the /store landing page to be spaced as is and to have freedom to change the products css in a way that would not affect anything else

Hi

Can You please explain it differently ? With screenshots or something like that ? I'm afraid I do not understand.

I apologise if you went to check the site and it wasn't as I described. I hadn't received a response so i made an effort to fix it myself. With no success.

The 2 images attached show my category and product layout. The category layout is how i want it, however the css that affects my category layout also affects my product layout as you can see in the other image.

Ideally i would like my product to not be constrained by the same css as my category so i can style it how i want it using css.

Hi. Sorry if I upset ... I have read your post, and visited your website. I have a question: In what position you add the module that goes left ?, as it is called that module ?, because I wanted to use that same position for a module categories ... thanks, greetings ...

Hi

I think best way would be to add a script to Your site which will recognise what type of virtuemart contnent You are using and depending of what it is to add a class to <body> element. This way You will be able to style categories, category or product page differently.

Add this to /layouts/blocks/head.php

Code: Select all
<script type="text/javascript">(function($) {$(document).ready(function() {
if( $('#gkMainbody > .category-view').size() > 0 ) {
    $('body').addClass('vm-categories-layout');
}

if( $('#gkMainbody > .browse-view').size() > 0 ) {
    $('body').addClass('vm-category-layout');
}

if( $('#gkMainbody > .productdetails-view').size() > 0 ) {
    $('body').addClass('vm-product-layout');
}
});})(jQuery)</script>
