[TYPO3-commerce] Different templates for different categories?

[Morten Olesen]

Hi Oberhauser,

While you seem to have solved your problem I thought it might be worth 
mentioning why you category ts didn't work - so if anybody searches for 
a similar issue they will learn what is wrong.


Everything you put in the "category typoscript" box must be contained in

catTS{
}

any values specified inside catTS will override the conf array of pi1 - 
so in your case you should have written

catTS{
	templateFile = fileadmin/templates/commerce/category_product_2.html
}

Do how ever notice that categoryTS isn't inherited by sub categories, so 
it is specific to the category where you specified it.
