How to remove information in Magento catalog, but only for specific product type

I am wondering how can I delete this two divs -
in Magento catalog, but only for specific product type. In short, I would like to have product type which would appear in catalog only with product-image and product-name, without - price, Out of stock, Add to Wishlist, Add to Compare.
It's possible to load different layout updates depending on loaded product type. You can see an example of how it's done in Magento for configurable products here: https://github.com/LokeyCoding/magento-mirror/blob/magento-1.7/app/design/frontend/base/default/layout/catalog.xml#L275-L287
It's possible because view action of product controller makes this to be executed: https://github.com/LokeyCoding/magento-mirror/blob/magento-1.7/app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Helper/Product/View.php#L59-L60
You can change the design for any product from the admin.
You need to create a separate theme with a different product page which will have only the attributes you would like.
Then you can select the design for that specific product. Please see the screenshot, how you can change design for any product

How to display simple product of a configurable product in magento categories?

I am making an e-commerce website and I have a lot of configurable products. Each configurable product has many options (color : red, blue...).
When I am on a category page, only configurable products are displayed. I want to see also simple product and its link is its configurable product with option pre selected.
How can I do that? Is it native? Do you know an extension for that?
If not, I will making an publish an open source one.
Thank you
There is an option called "visibility" in the simple product`s menu where you can change attributes like add description etc. This attribute is set to "not visbible individually" by default. You can change that to "catalog" or "catalog, search" and the simple product should show up in the assigned categories.

Magento 1.4: Disabling all products in a particular category

I need to disable all products that are in a particular category (the category itself is disabled but the products must not show in search, either).
I found this blog post but that's for an older version of Magento than 1.4 - the database structure has changed and I don't know how to adjust the SQL accordingly.
The filtering of products could alternatively be done on a dropdown attribute if that's easier, as all products with this attribute set a certain way are in the category.
Thanks.
with the enhanced admin product grid you can configure it to show the categories: from there you could filter by the category you want and then use "actions" dropdown to disable the products.
HTH.
Just Export the products in your store, then filter the spreadsheet by the category you want to affect. Now you only have the products in that category. Change the Status to disabled and then import the products with the updated status to make the change.
