The more complex the Magento product, the more you will have to edit each and every category and make them unique.

  • Duplicate your existing list.phtml file. Actually make five copies, just to have one unedited backup(since you have four categories).

app/design/frontend/default/yourtheme/template/catalog/product/list.phtml

  • Change the name of the file to anything you want, but honestly just
    add an underscore and a quick name of the category

list_thisCategory.phtml

  • Add the following code to the category’s “Custom Design” Tab / “Custom Layout Update” section:
<reference name="product_list">
       <action method="setTemplate">
          <template>catalog/product/list_thisCategory.phtml</template>
       </action>
     </reference>
  • Now open up your thisCategory.phtml file and begin editing it.
  • Any changes you make to that file will only effect the one category.
