    Hello,

    I just ran into a problem i couldn’t find a solution.

    I have a lot of items (products) i need to show in my friends site.

    Each product inlcludes : title, image and details.

    Problem is that the amount of details varies a lot, so if i make a grid view where all elements are listed horizontally or vertically it takes a different amount of space for each item and it looks verry crappy.

    I used flipping plugin, where i listed all images and when hovering a mouse over image it flips and shows description, but still the same problem – different amount of space are used.

    So how i can nicely show the items in my site?

    The items are from this site : http://www.phoenixwheels.eu/?lng=eng&links=wheels&wheelBrand=1200087206

    when you click on a wheel image it opens a pop-up with details.

    This is the source , and now i need to get all those items with description to my site and show it beautifully.

    Any ideas, plugin suggestions or at least some hints how to do it?

    It might be appropriate to display the information in tabs.

    There are a lot of tab plugins available: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/search.php?q=tabs including mine: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/tabby-responsive-tabs/ which might be particularly suitable if you will be using a responsive theme

    Thank you for your response.

    And yes i use responsive theme.
    But there are one downside with tabs – because it would be nice if all images are shown and customer can choose via visual. With (accordion) tabs they have to click on each tab to view the content (with description its okay, but the image is also included in tab) and with over an 100 products it’s quite unlikely that they are willing to do that.

    You could put the image and the most important information in a separate block above the tabs, so only the secondary information is in the tab group.
