I would like to create a new category template that allows us to display the categories in a grid format with a picture for each category. When the user clicks on select for the the category it then takes them to the products for the category. It seems as if all the category templates that come with BV just display the categories as a list.
An example would be that we would like this to look just like the "grid" template, but it would display the categories instead of the "list".
Can this be done and if so can you let me know how? I know how to create a new template by copying a similar template, but there doesn't seem to be a similar template.
Any insight or suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks.

Why don't you use the 'Grid with Subs' template? That will display the categories in a grid (assuming that you've assigned thumbnail images to each category, of course). If you don't have this template you may need to upgrade to the current version. |

I do not see this template in our copy of BV. We have BV 5 SP2 - what version do we need to get this template? Is there any way for me to get this template without upgrading?

I seem to recall that was a free add-on template that BV offered and then was included in a later service pack. I have been using it and it's great. |

Log into your BV Software account and see if you can download a newer version that might include this template. If you didn't purchase the maintenance plan you might not be able to get it. |
