Done..

OK I got it now..

.catablog-row .catablog-image.catablog-subimage {
width: 45%;
padding: 2px;
}

https://www.nailtech.com/images/catablogITEM3_offkilter.gif
circled stuff, renamed and uploaded.. all the columns are off one.. Date in Order column, Order in Categories column, Categories in Product code column, Price in Link column and the link is not showing anywhere.. the link you see in the description column IS in the description as you can see from
https://www.nailtech.com/images/catablogITEM_offkilter.gif
that item from the edit screen, TEXT mode shows:
Dress up your Nail Art by adding a little slice of life with <a title="Nail Art FIMO Clay Canes" href="https://www.nailtech.com/shoppe/nail-clay-canes-c-163.html">Nail Art FIMO Clay Canes</a>. Flowers, Fruit and Bugs, plus a large assortment of designs including Holiday, Casino and more.

Like I said this is a VISUAL THING only apparently.. the gallery is displaying and behaving properly.. its just a visual layout problem in the library view

sorry dont know where that one uploaded ?? its there now..
just jetpack is installed — NONE of the photo sections are active

I thought I tried that.. ok will try again and report

this is a screen shot of the library page:
https://www.nailtech.com/images/catablog_offkilter.gif

the price is zero.. I am not selling this item, its merely a link to one of the stores I manage, as are all the items on that page

and this is a screen shot of the item in the edit screen:
https://www.nailtech.com/images/catablogITEM_offkilter.gif

As I move along and I am final editing each item the same thing happens in the library list screen..

I’ve tweaked the CSS quite a bit today using Simple Custom CSS.. but I still think I need 4 columns or 3 at least

[catablog_gallery id="69"]

here are the custom changes I made:

.main-navigation .main-nav ul li a, .menu-toggle {
  line-height: 40px;
}

.inside-header {
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}

/*.catablog-catalog .catablog-row {
  float: left;
  width: 47%;
}
*/

.catablog-catalog .catablog-row {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  padding: 5px;
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px black solid;

}

.entry-content {
    margin-left: 20px;
    width: 100%;
}

.catablog-row .catablog-description
 {
	font-size: .9em;
 }

OK I got it now.. I did have to take the default and merge it with the store to create:

<div class='catablog-row %CATEGORY-SLUGS%'>
	<div class="catablog-images-column">
		%MAIN-IMAGE%
		%SUB-IMAGES%
	</div>

	<h3 class='catablog-title'>%TITLE-LINK%</h3>

	<div class="catablog-description">
		<p>%DESCRIPTION%</p>
<form method='post' action='https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr' target='paypal'>
	<input type='hidden' name='cmd' value='_cart'>
	<input type='hidden' name='business' value='[email protected]'>
	<input type='hidden' name='item_name' value='%TITLE-TEXT%'>
	<input type='hidden' name='item_number' value='%PRODUCT-CODE%'>
	<input type='hidden' name='amount' value='%PRICE%'>

<input name='on0' type='hidden' value='Size' />Size:
<select name="os0">
<option value="Select a Size">Select</option>
<option value="Small">Small</option>
<option value="Medium">Medium</option>
<option value="Large">Large</option>
</select>

	<input type='hidden' name='shipping' value='3.00'>
	<input type='hidden' name='shipping2' value='0.50'>
	<input type='hidden' name='currency_code' value='USD'>
	<input type='hidden' name='return' value='https://www.nailtech.com/NTmain'>
	<input type='hidden' name='quantity' value='1'>
	<input type='hidden' name='add' value='1'>
	<input type='image' src='https://images.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but22.gif' border='0' name='submit' width='87' height='23' alt='Add to Cart'>
</form>
</div>

</div>

and that did the trick using:
[catablog category="size_only" template="store_size_only"]

IMHO though this is really backwards.. I feel the options should be attached to the items/images.. thats where my first stab at this was headed.. this item needs options color R,B&G, that one needs G, W&Blk, the other item needs both a color and size choice, but not all sizes are available. the last item has all sizes available but no color choices.. see where I’m trying to head with this? <G> the categories still are very useful in grouping and sorting.

Better not great yet..

I think I am over analyzing this ??

Here’s what I did.. Copied the STORE template to a new template:
store_size_only
and removed the code for the color option

that gives me the code:
[catablog template=”store_size_only”]
but that produces 22 lines with the size dropdowns and add to cart button ONLY– no image, title or description..

changing the code to:
[catablog_gallery id=”69″ template=”store_size_only”]
produces the exact same result, 22 lines with the size dropdowns and add to cart button ONLY– no image, title or description..

changing the code to:
[catablog_gallery id=”69″ template=”store_size_only” category=”size_only”]
(2 items have been assigned to size-only category, 1 item has been assigned to size-color category)
produces the exact same result, 22 lines with the size dropdowns and add to cart button ONLY no image, title or description..

changing it to:
[catablog template=”store_size_only” category=”size_only”]
has no change either..

changing to:
[catablog category=”size_only”]
does give me ONLY the 2 items in the size_only category with the size dropdowns and add to cart button ONLY– no image, title or description..

now changing to:
[catablog template=”store_size_only” category=”size_only”]
does give me ONLY the 2 items in the size_only category with the size dropdowns and add to cart button ONLY no image, title or description. The links are correct so if I choose a size and add to cart it does this correctly..

Using
[catablog category=”size_color”]
gives me everything.. image 2 dropdowns, add to cart

Right now it is set at:
[catablog category=”size_only” template=”store_size_only”]
[catablog category=”size_color”]

ok.. I would think it should be shown in the library also maybe with a notation it is a sub-item.. but I’m OK with that, maybe allowing it to be added as a sub item to other’s without duplicating the image?

oh but the editor keeps changing the single to double quote marks ;(

OH OH OH… I see where I’m having an issue here.. You have it adding the option code to the “store” template I was adding it to the item description.. Now, having moved the option code to the store template it not only adds the options when “adding to cart” it displays much nicer too..

But now the issue is not every item in the cart will have these exact option choices.. how to handle that?

OK read that, got it.. but I’m still not getting the options showing in the cart

Stiletto Nail Tips pack of 10 assorted<br>USD $10.00<br>
<input type='hidden' name='on0' value='Size'>Size:
<select name="os0">
<option value="Select a Size">Select
<option value="Small">Small
<option value="Medium">Medium
<option value="Large">Large
</select>
<input type='hidden' name='on1' value='Color'>Color:
<select name="os1">
<option value="Select a Color">Select
<option value="Red">Red
<option value="Blue">Blue
<option value="White">White
</select>

say I had a tee-shirt to sell and it came in blue, red and white, small, medium and large.. how can I add these as options when purchasing the tee-shirt?

right.. I can add an image as a sub image while viewing/editing an image from the library. when I go back to the library, the “sub-image” does not show in the library list – I can only see it if I click to edit the image it is a sub of. I absolutely am not seeing the sub image in the library. I had 19 images in the library, added 2 subs to one of the images and I still only have 19 items in the library
