Display title of looped-over categories in between product lists

Post by rowild » 01 Oct 2019, 19:26

In TYPO3 it is - thanks to this commit:
```https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-typo3/ ... -536996704```
- now possible to assign more catalog categories to a `catalog list` plugin.

First of all: Thanks to the aimeos team for providing this fix so incredibly quickly! That is really fantastic!!!

My question now would be: Is it possible to display the title of each category before the display of their very product lists?
Currently, all products of all categories are displayed in a single list, and only the title of the very first list is shown.

No, the categories are only used for searching the products from those categories but there's no category related information available at all.

Thank you!

Is that on your feature list, by any chance? Or do you not include it because of performance implications?

These information is usually not required so we won't add that by default for performance reasons.
But you can write a decorator with a few lines that adds the categories to the view yourself.

I will dig into the Decorator topic within the next days during my learning process. And will probably come back with questions :-)

Thank you!
