Configurable promotion page, "swiss army knife"

[breakdancingcat]

Goal

A template that displays a single promotion group (dynamic content) as either a list, a grid, or either of those grouped by their selected option. This is made possible using one page field with JSON and the parameters outlined below.

Preview

List view, not grouped	List view, grouped

Grid view, not grouped	Grid view, grouped

Configuration

Select template "Promo Page."

Select Custom page field promoPage.

Paste this JSON array into the page field and edit the values to configure the page:

{
"id":00000,
"config":"randomize|limit:60|page_id",
"columns":4,
"singlePromoView":"true",
"showExcerpt":"false",
"showDescription":"true"
}

Param	Usage
id	Promo group ID. Required.
config	Promo group config, pipe delimited. Use 'page_id' for per-page items. Optional.
columns	2, 3, or 4. Default/unset is 1, a list. Optional.
singlePromoview	True or false. False(default) will enable the promotion's link field. Optional.
showExcerpt	True or false. True is default. Optional.
showDescription	True or false. True is default. Optional.

Notes

For compatibility with older versions, the page fields "listing_promo_group_id" and "grid_promo_group_id" still function, but they are not configurable to set the number of columns, individual promo view, or the ability to show/hide excerpt and description.
