modify categoriesblock.ascx to display a catalog

[Former Member]

Is it possible to modify the datasource in the plugin categoriesblock.ascx to show a list by catalog instead of a featured list?

Current code is:

FeaturedRepeater.DataSource = bp.Catalog.PartsListFeatured(DisplayNumber, bp.CatalogCode, bp.AccountID, bp.PriceList);

I have a catalog for specials that I want to show in the same way that featured items are being show as.

You can try that. But I doubt it would work. I think those queries pull back different data so it would probably blow up on bind.

If the layout of featuredblock is what you want, just copy it and rename it categoriesblock.ascx.
