Home Page Layout

[Nick1973]

The homepage would need to be a zen cart page in order to update categories, text, etc.

The site I'm building is for a wine merchants and we require featured products to be shown on the homepage only.

The rest of the shopping cart can function as normal.

See the attached document to get an idea of layout. That will be the homepage only.

Many Thanks

Nick

A lot of elements of ZC can be manipulated almost anyway you require.
I have built many custom ZC based sites (as opposed to simply stores) many time manipulating the main page to be beyond simple recognition as a ZC store.

What I am saying is - With ZC almost anything is possible.

Have you thought about setting your landing page as an EZpage?

You can disable header, footer and sidebars for the home page and have all of your code for the functions you want in define_main_page.php. (Ez-pages can't handle PHP code.)

See my site for an example.

In the past I have used EZ-Pages, custom define pages or the built in main page for the website 'home page' - so, yes it can be done.

How to add php into EZ Pages may be useful.

Is there a way to apply a CSS file to just the home page? Or looking at the other side, have the home page call a separate CSS file than the rest of the site.

Thank you, misty. That should help; appreciate it. Another thing I realized, I will need to change the logo to a different .jpg for the home page as well as hide the "Home," "Login," and Search feature. How is this controlled?

I added my code to define_main_page.php yet it does not show on the main page? any ideas?

Currently it starts with one of the categories yet even if i disable that, i just get a blank area.

Thanks
