For those who’ve been asking for this functionality, this post should hopefully get you going. I’m only going to be adding the MSRP to the Category Template “Grid”. You can use the same code and add it to other templates. First, open BVModules > Grid > Category.aspx. Add the following “Newly Added Code”. I’ve copied the HTML above and below the newly added code so you could properly place it. Code: <div class="recordsku"> <a id="SkuAnchor" runat="server" href=""></a> </div> <%-- Newly Added Code--%> <div class="recordmsrp"> <a id="MSRPAnchor" runat="server" href=""></a> </div> <%-- End Newly Added Code--%> <div class="recordprice"> <a id="PriceAnchor" runat="server" href=""></a> </div> Next, add the following code to “Category.aspx.vb”: Code:
Dim SkuAnchor As HtmlAnchor = DirectCast(e.Item.FindControl("SkuAnchor"), HtmlAnchor)
SkuAnchor.HRef = destinationLink
SkuAnchor.InnerText = p.Sku
Dim PriceAnchor As HtmlAnchor = DirectCast(e.Item.FindControl("PriceAnchor"), HtmlAnchor)
PriceAnchor.HRef = destinationLink
PriceAnchor.InnerText = p.GetSitePriceForDisplay(0D)
'Newly Added Code
Dim MSRPAnchor As HtmlAnchor = DirectCast(e.Item.FindControl("MSRPAnchor"), HtmlAnchor)
MSRPAnchor.HRef = destinationLink
MSRPAnchor.InnerText = p.ListPrice.ToString("C")
'End Newly Added Code
Again, I’ve copied the code above it so you can add it to the correct location. That’s it. Now we just need to add the styles. Under the “styles” folder for your theme, open “category.css”. Add the following items. You can place them in anywhere though you might want to organize it like the other styles. Code:
.recordmsrp { font-size: 110%; font-weight: normal;padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 5px; border-left: 5px solid #ccc; }
.recordmsrp a { text-decoration: line-through; }
#categorygridtemplaterecords .recordmsrp {text-align:center;border:none;margin:0;padding:0;font-size:100%;line-height:1em; text-decoration:line-through;}

I couldn’t produce enough documents to be as helpful as you have been on the forums Cliff.
I’m glad this helped John!
The dynamic compilation makes implementing such code a breeze. Just copy and paste, no recompiling required. Hopefully I can find time to do more of these in the near future. |

I've really liked experimenting with the ability to make code changes without recompiling the whole thing, that was one thing that kept me from doing more code with BVC2004. If I wreck the store now it just takes 2 seconds to go back and try again.
With this new version little code mods like this become something designers can handle without sending clients off for a coder to do something simple like add a property to a category grid.
Good Stuff. The flexibility is amazing...
ok, now what if I want to do something like this to the product rotator module as well? same idea I assume, right? |

The product rotator is a little bit different. The following will get the price on the page, but you'll have to style it properly: Add the following to BVModules > ContentBlocks > Product Rotator > view.ascx Code:<asp:Label ID="listPrice" runat="server"></asp:Label> I placed mine under Code:<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkProductName" runat="server" NavigateUrl=""></asp:HyperLink> Afterwards, add the "newly added code" to view.ascx.vb: Code:
Dim product As Catalog.Product = Catalog.InternalProduct.FindByBvin(bvin)
'Newly Added Code
Dim lp As Decimal = product.ListPrice
Me.listPrice.Text = lp.ToString("C")
'End Newly Added Code
Dim count As Integer = 1
