I am new to Drupal and ubercart, Actually making my first site on Drupal CMS.
I am developing online store with the help of ubercart. I am getting difficulties to display products in grid view for catalog.
As long as I understand correctly, we can create product categories from
Texonomy->add term
when I open url for example, http://[Website_URL]?q=[catalog_term_name]
I end up with the page where products are listed in list form not as Grid.
I am using drupal 7 and ubercarts's latest version[just downloaded two days ago], and as
long as I know ubercart supports grid view but how to display it.... I dont know.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Go to admin > structure > views ( For Drupal 7.x) and customize t he catalog view.

I'm building an inventory/classified for all my products onto a wordpress site. Is this a good idea?
The question i have is how to seperate them all.
I have about 50 product categories (which wont fit the menu).
I need to find a way to query and show the items for each category out as they onto an independant page.
For example. I have engines, tires, rim, hoods. I need a page to show all engines together and not the others.
Thanks it advance, I hope the question is clear
Wordpress is fine, i am working for a company, in which i used wordpress to create an auction. It had a ton of categories and products. I created a custom post to allow users to create items for the auction. Added categories which i used to filter through the products, ie: All, Arts & Entertainment, Sports, Dining, Golf, etc. I created pagination so it shows the products on multiple pages

Ok, so my problem is that i'm creating an antiques directory and i need some help in reccomedding the tools i'll need to do the job. I'm ok with programming but fairly basic.
I want a user to be able to search my website for a phrase or choose a category and then return images of the antiques that they entered in my directory.
What things should i be looking at to do this? i.e. wordpress/drupal/joomla and if so what plugins would i need?! Can anyone help?
Thankyou =]

If you have the patience to learn Drupal & CCK+Views you would have everything you need in a well customizable package, and most likely it could be done with no programming at all, just configuration.
The way you would do it in Drupal is to create a new content type for your antiques, and attach various fields (image, text, this, that, whatever) using the CCK (Content Construction Kit) Module and it's sub modules. Then you would assign taxonomy terms (categories) to individual Antiques when added.
Finally you would create a View or 2 using the Views module and a few views sub modules to filter on taxonomy term categories (using say autocomplete) and then return said catalog however you please...

I want to customize the Ubercart customers list, displaying more fields enabling multiselection, actionsm etc..
I already have a view for drupal authenticated users, but I cannot display informations such as billing addresses from ubecart (or see orders)
Any tip ?
thanks
Did you try Ubercart Views - http://drupal.org/project/uc_views ?
From the module page
It also describes some of the Ubercart data tables to views, so you can create your own views, based on these data using the views_ui.
I am new to drupal, so sorry for this noob question, but I was wondering how to display articles only in the central column. Currently there are also blog entries, etc and I would like to get rid of them. I have a Views plugin installed but I am not sure how to do this.
In your View create a filter for Node: Type. Here, you can tell it specifically what kind of content to show.
you can change your frontpage settings in admin/settings/site-information
so let's say you created a view - with a page display
set the page url of your view (eg. articles), and then in your settings (the path i mentioned before) you set the drupal frontpage to the page path of your view (that would be 'articles')
i hope that's clear enough for you
I have a Drupal 5 website on which I want to display a list (or grid) of affiliate links to different products, sales and offers. Each 'affiliate product' node will have a title, description, an image and a URL. When either the image or URL link is clicked, the user should be redirected to the URL.
I've gotten close to this, using a view, custom pager and adding a custom image field to my node in CCK (Content Construction Kit), but whenever the image is clicked, it goes to the full node page rather than the URL.
Any advice from people who've done this or something similar would be greatly appreciated. If this can be more easily achieved in Drupal 6, I'm prepared to upgrade the site, as that was on the to-do list anyway.
Thanks in advance.
If you want to stick with Drupal 5 you can use a View template in your theme (using the Theme Wizard module as a starting point) to explicitly create an image link to the URL link. That would easily be the quickest solution.
If you upgrade to Drupal 6 you can use the new features in Views 2 to re-write the image field output to include the link. There are a lot of differences between Views and Imagefield between Drupal 5 and 6 though so be ready for a slight learning curve if you go that route.
