Remove new products for.. from home page

Hi All,

Just a quick question about products on home page.
I have set up my main catagories to appear in the navcatswrapper as simple text this works just fine, i have now added images from the main categories in the main body of the page again these work fine. underneath these images i get random new products displayed. I have looked in the admin layout setting and index listing and turned off and on many different buttons but the only way i can get rid of them is to remove through the whole site with the Show Featured Products on Main Page - Category with Subcategories button.
I have set up the site with products showing at the bottom of the final category pages i have to leave them there or there is no way to get to the attribute and checkout.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Andy

Peek in the Configuration ... Index Listing ...

There are several sets of settings for each of the Centerboxes depending on what level of display you are on ...

0 means OFF and any other value is the Sort Order for the Centerboxes within each set ...

To turn OFF the New Product Centerbox, set them each to 0 ...

Hi Linda

Thanks for the quick reply.
I have been through all the options and im not sure if im missing something.
I either loose all product images throughout the whole site or there on the main page as well,
Is there another way or am i just being a simpleton?

Thanks

Andy

What settings do you have on the Configuration ... Index Listing ...

Do you have an URL that we could look at?

Hi Linda

www.niodonline.co.uk/catalog

I have changed the settings so many times there's no telling

Thanks for the help

Looks like you are displaying your Categories via an Always show in the Configuration ... Layout Settings ...

And then in the Configuration ... Index Listing ...

You have the New Products turned on ... where 0 is OFF and any other value is the Sort order of the centerboxes ...

Hi,

I saw the notes as to where to turn off the NEW PRODUCTS and want to delete/hide the products showing here http://pageallaboutit.com/order/ , but when I open /order/admin/index.php and /order/admin/configuration.php I do not see the line for NEW PRODUCTS to set to zero.

Where does it show exactly?

Thanks in advance,
Dave

open your admin panel then:

admin -> configuration -> index listing -> the very first option is:

Show New Products on Main Page set this to 0

Thanks for the help; howeve, I must have an older version - it is green, but when I open the admin folder I have only backups, images & includes as subfolders then I have a lot of php page files.

Where is the configuration?

in the sub folder includes under admin I have folders that are named boxes, classes, extra_configures, functions, javascripts, languages and a few more, but no config folder.

Where should I look in the older version (or the updated version if that is the green admin area).

Thanks again for your help. This is frustrating.

Dave

open your browser navigate to http://pageallaboutit.com/order/admin.

login

now click on the menu option "configuration"

scroll down to Index Listing

click on the very first option (Show New Products on Main Page)

set this option to 0

Whenever you see something in the forum such as:

go to admin -> whatever -> whatever

it is referring to the procedure outlined above.
