most  dutch car sellers use the autotrader.nl API, so car salesmen can add a car to autotrader.nl which will automaticly also show the added car on their own website. I dont know what kind of project youre working on, but most prefer the autotrader API so they only have to add a car once, which will then show on multiple websites.

Its also possible to use Cataloger module, or change Album module a little and use that one.

Paulus47,

Is it maybe an idea to use the action='recent' in combination with a css related sub-template. As count take a very high number that will only be hit in your wildest dreams (say 1250  : where would you leave all those pretty cars without the insurance company not being sweating around the corner every day

Paulus47,

Check out the following site (in development):
www.mantox.nl/shop.

One of the boxes 'Recent...', shows the five items that I recently added to the site using the cataloger module.

In my template for this main page I've entered:

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='Cataloger' action='recent' sub_template='Recent' count='5' alias='/'}

Now you could change 5 to a higher value.

Hello duketown
What tags that you template recent?

like:

{$title}

{section name=ind loop=$image_url_array}

{/section}
{section name=at loop=$attrlist}
{$attrlist[at].name}: {eval var=$attrlist[at].key}
{/section}

Did you manage to get this working?  I can't seem to get the recent action of cataloger working at all!

Cheers

Sorry, thanks to the bumper of yelwor I see the thread again.
The sub-template Recent contains

Code: Select all

{section name=numloop loop=$items}
<div>
<table>
<tr>
 <td><a href="{$items[numloop].link}"><img src="{$items[numloop].image}" alt="{$items[numloop].title}"/></a>
 </td>
 <td>Prijs: {$items[numloop].prijs}<br>
Info: <a href="{$items[numloop].link}">{$items[numloop].title}</a>
 </td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
{/section}

Template type has been set to Item page.

Thanks for that duketown!  I actually managed to get things working as well after finding what I think is a bug in the latest release of Cataloger (v0.6.2).

If you want more information on the possible bug you can find the report at http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2082&group_id=47&atid=261

Also, the sub_template I used was not shown through CMS and I only found it by looking the through the Cataloger/includes folder in the modules directory of my CMS installation.  The template was called Feature-CSS-based.tpl and contains :-

Code: Select all

<div class="feature_items">
    {section name=numloop loop=$items}
        <div class="feature_item"><a href="{$items[numloop].link}"><img src="{$items[numloop].image}" alt="{$items[numloop].title}"/></a><br /><a href="{$items[numloop].link}">{$items[numloop].title}</a></div>
    {/section}
</div>

Hope this helps.
