Products in the slider instead of categories!

-- HikaShop version -- : Business 2.2.2
-- Joomla version -- : Joomla! 2.5.6

I need create on page the slider with products, instead of categories. I not understand how to display the slider on main (contant) position instead of a new (module) position of template and as a result on the page appears the slider with products (module) and related categories.
Here is example of what I would like to see on my site www.basilurtea.ca/basilur/bouquet.html - its page of some category оn the site, which displayed the slider with products instead of subcategories.

Ok, I was able to integrate slider (module) in page via fied "Position" and {loadposition name position} option. But I dont now how to exclude old subcategories from page?

Hi,

I don't fully understood the problem that you are having with your product listings but can you explain it through some screenshots of how did you configured your module/product listing, and of what you are getting ? also some links of the issue that you are having will probably help.
Thanks .

Just tell me, how would you implement this page structure ( www.basilurtea.ca/basilur/bouquet.html ) in Hikashop?

I did the following:
1) Create categories in main menu and they are displayed subcategories
2) Set a one "HikaShop Content Module" which displayed products of subcategories in slider
3) Via fied "Position" and {loadposition name position} displayed slider in contеnt plаce

But how to switch off old displayed subcategories on the site? Now the page displayed a slider with products of subcategories and themselves subcategories.

Hi,

In HikaShop the easiest way is to set the option "Sub elements filter" to "Grouped by category" in the menu/module option.
By this way the products will be displayed by subcategory of the selected one in the menu/module.
Then you will have to edit the view "product / listing_div" to create your own carousel effect.
It require PHP - JS knowledges.

Else you will have to assign modules on certain menus and it will be complicated to manage that I think.

I dont need the new effect for slider, I just need only structure as on example site.

Hi,

You can probably just use some css properties.
Here is a little tutorial which explains how to customize the layout:

Thanks you very much! Everything works!

And the last question! How to connect a different templates for categories and subcategorie? Hikashop has no defference categories (class="hikashop_subcategories_listing) and subcategories (class="hikashop_subcategories_listing) in the template file:

$layout_type = $this->params->get('layout_type');
if(empty($layout_type) || $layout_type=='table') $layout_type = 'div';
$html = $this->loadTemplate($layout_type);
if(!empty($html)) echo '<div class="hikashop_subcategories_listing">'.$html.'</div>';

In my case I can do this:

if($this->element->category_id=='2' && !empty($html))
echo '<div class="hikashop_subcategories_listing">'.$html.'</div>';
