Hi All,
I'm using various headers and trailers thruout my site with no problem, but I can't seem to change the trailer when i'm displaying a product in Shopexd.asp. In the template I see [ADD_ShopTrailer] but I'm not sure what to do to change to another trailer. Can anyone help with this?
Thanks
Jack

Hi All,
I found how to change the trailer in Shopexd.asp. In shopfileio.asp around line 704 the sub for the page trailer is this:

Sub Handle_PageTrailer (value, parsearray)
dim templatedisplay
templatedisplay=parsearray(ptemplatedisplay)
Value=""
If TemplateDisplay="No" then exit sub
ShopPageTrailer
end sub

add this sub under it, In this case I used PageTrailernew as the handle,

Sub Handle_PageTrailernew (value, parsearray)
dim templatedisplay
templatedisplay=parsearray(ptemplatedisplay)
Value=""
If TemplateDisplay="No" then exit sub
ShopPageTrailernew
end sub

also had to add this new case under
the original case around line 434 in shopfileio.asp

Case "ADD_PAGETRAILERnew"
Handle_PageTrailernew value, parsearray
rc=0


Now just change the [ADD_PageTrailer] call in your template to the new trailer name. in this case [ADD_PageTrailernew]

Also works with headers

Thanks
Jack

Jack:

How do you name the new trailer?
shop_pagetrailernew.htm?

I can not get it work because I don't know how [ADD_shoptrailernew] at shopexd.asp can find the new trailer file.

Thanks.

Hi all,
You must first create new headers and/or trailers and create the appropriate subs in shopheaders.asp ( If you want to change trailer add the ShopPage trailer sub. same precedure though)

this is how to do it In version 6.X, it may work in 5.5 ?

in shopheaders.asp, there is a procedure (sub) called ShopPageHeader. Copy the entire function (to the first place you see 'end sub' and then paste it below. Call this sub 'ShopPageHeader_Default', or whatever you want to call it. Then edit the line in the newly pasted sub that says

%>
<!-- #include file="shoppage_header.htm" -->
<%

change this to the template file you want to use.

Finally, in your default.asp, change the the line
<%shopPageHeader%>

to the name of the sub you just created. Repeat the process for the trailer templates if you like as well.

Then just modify shoppage_header.htm to make it look the way you want and save it as
ShopPageHeader_Default.htm, or whatever you want to call it.


Special Thanks to - craig simons who helped me with this on January 16 2006 11:55:14
