    Default Nothing showing in the center pane when first opening webpage

    Hello,

    I have been simplifying my zen cart (until I learn all the different aspects) and somehow I toggled off
    the section that displays product in my center pane.

    I cant seem to figure out how to get my store items to show up in that middle area when you first open my store.
    Once you click on a product it opens there, but I would like the default to be show stock when you first see the store.

    Any help would be appreciated! :)
    Thanks so much
    Nancy

    Your page is completely loading. So.....
    You have created a blank define_main_page.
    You have set a no display in the css
    You have changed what ZC displays on the main page and sent it to a non-existent page/area.
    Do you have any log files?
    Would you PLEASE answer the posting tip questions
    etc

    Upon second look....

    TEMPLATE MONSTER

    All bets are off. TM could be doing anything. ANYTHING.

    You could try to uncomment this
    <!-- deprecated - to use uncomment this section <div id="" class="content">This is the main define statement for the page for english when no template defined file exists. It is located in: <strong>/includes/languages/english/index.php</strong></div> --> <!-- deprecated - to use uncomment this section <div id="" class="content">Define your main Index page copy here.</div> --> <div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"></div>

    Template Monster is bad? I wasnt aware of this. Do I need to look for a new template?

    I forgot to make a backup, I try to do that each day before I change things.
    The products used to display in the center pane, but no longer do

    TM is a pig with lipstick. If you don't try to touch anything, it might work. Otherwise, every attempt at customization is a nightmare.
    They use ANYTHING BUT standard ZC practices to create their "look."

    Switch to classic and see if they return.

    Hello,
    I reinstalled a fresh zen cart 1.5.1 :)

    I played around and realized where it was ... there is toggle for Index Listing, I think that was the problem.
    Now .. to play! lol

    Hmmm wonder if there is a zen cart for dummies book?
