    Default Re: Display of index page, new product image, metatags & SEO

    I see the following on product pages:
    Code:
    <!--bof Product Name--><h1 id="productName" class="productGeneral">Acid Zapper 120-count tablets</h1>
    
    <!--eof Product Name-->
    Which matches the title tag for the page

    On the category page (product listing)
    Code:
    <h1 id="productListHeading">Nutritional Supplements</h1>
    Ezpages have similar behavior of picking up the name of the page as the title and wrapping it in a h1.

    On the main index page you are left to create your own, when you edit page content with the define pages editor(define_main_page)

    What browser are you using? I would suggest firefox with the web developer toolbar. With that tool you will be able to quickly look at the tags for each element on the page.

    I think I'm confused here, and it probably covers it more in-depth in the book under advanced customization (almost there, but not quite, and the client wants his site), but that doesn't confuse the server, for lack of a better phrase? Two folders, named the same, at the includes level? And how do I know which folder is my overrides folder?
    No it doesn't confuse any thing. For an example, you have the following:

    includes/english/, within that folder is a classic folder (that folder is actually an override folder matching the classic template) so you can add a theme136 folder at that level. Copy only those files you edit from that level into that overrides folder. You can do that at each level of the directory tree where you see a classics folder. The classics folder is sort of a roadmap to where overrides can be placed as it is a template with overrides itself. The overrides systems isn't that difficult and once you see the pattern you'll slap yourself in the forehead and wonder why you thought it was difficult. It will just click all of a sudden. The book you refer to doesn't go into much depth about the process of using the overrides system. Using the overrides makes it much faster to find what your looking for and protects you on upgrades....though the next upgrade to 2.0 will be more complicated than in the past
