Connecting similar items was created by tarja

Hello,
In Category list view, can I connect together more items with the same value in one field, like in the picture below?

your image is to abstract ..

you want an odering by a vield value ?
1 in your categorie config do it (ordering by a field value)
2 create a custom template for your display

Hello

yes but as micker said you need a custom template:

1. Order by your custom field (set this the item order in category configuration)

2. if you field ID is 54, then inside your category items do something like:

Code:

if (
  $i > 0 &&
  $items[$i-1]->fieldvalues[54][0] !=
  $items[$i]->fieldvalues[54][0]
) {
  echo "<hr/>";
  echo "New group starts here<br/>";
}

- to open close table cells is bit more tricky to do
