Hi. I'm trying to figure out how to change the format of the categories in the index file. By the default the categories go something like this.
**************************************
Category1
Description of the category1


Category2
Description of the category 2


Category2
Description of the category 3
etc...
***************************************

I would like it to appear without a description line and in a following format:
**************************************
• Category1 • Category7
• Category2 • Category8
• Category3 • Category9
• Category4 • Category10
• Category5 • Category11
• Category6 • Category12


Thanks for your help.

As mentioned numerous times in this forum and in the Discussion and Modification Forums (the latter which you should post questions like this), and there is a FAQ in the Resource Center that addresses this problem...

You need to do the following in the sub site_html_print_cat routine in the site_html_templates.pl file:

1) Delete all defintion list codes (<dt><dl></dt></dl> ).

2) Delete all CSS codes (span and class codes).

3) Put your own font codes before the $category_clean variable.

4) Put <li> before <a href="$url"> and </li> after the </a> codes.

5) Delete all descriptions for main categories, so that you won't have text printed below the categories -OR- delete the $description variable.

Regards,
