    Default Text under new products on main page

    Hi,

    I have done this before but can now can't remember how I did it which is typical :)
    If you look at www.interior-displays.co.uk

    You can see the featured products bit had text underneath them. So which page do info this on and if I want to do it on
    The item slatwall panels...and click on that...then you can see text and sub categories how would I put text underneath those categories

    Just point me in the right direction or file and I can figure it out
    Thanks

    Not exactly sure I understand the question, but when I click on 'Slatwall Panels' I see two subcategory images. If you want text under those, you would add it as a category description in Admin - Catalog - Categories/Products for those categories.

    Hi

    No sorry look at the main page the home page and see I some how managed to add text underneath featured products?

    I want to know how I did that in the first place then do the same for the slatwall panels bit if that makes better sense :)

    Does that make any more sense ? Which page did I alter to add all that text under the featured categories ?

    Then that trick should apply to adding text under the sub categories for slatwall panels ?
    Thanks

    That text has the class name tv_prodesc. Use Admin - Tools - Developers Tool Kit to search for that to find the proper file.

    BTW, the no-right-click script doesn't accomplish anything but to make it more difficult for people here to look at your site code in order to help. I'd get rid of it.

    Is tv_prodesc for the front-page where the lots of text resides under featured products ?

    Yes.

    For future reference, install the Firefox browser and the Web Developer plugin for Firefox. You can use those to see where in the stylesheet you change the styling of the various page elements.

    Ctrl-Shift-Y will allow you to hover over a section of the page and see the class and id names for that section in the box at the top. The statements in the stylesheet that begin with # are id's and the ones that begin with dots are classes.

    Ctrl-Shift-E will open the CSS editor and allow you to edit the stylesheet and see the changes in real time without changing anything permanently. An essential tool.

    Some prefer Firebug, which does much the same thing.

    (If you're using Firefox 4-6, you'll need to remap the editor shortcut, since Firefox has appropriated Ctrl-Shift-E for an internal function - I use Ctrl-Shift-Q.)

    Default Re: Text under new products on main page

    Hi

    Thanks steve using firebug I have located where I need to pit the text those sub categories like on the home page but can't figure out how to do it

    As the pages get the categories loaded into them I can't figure out how to add different text for each page

    Editing the home page was easy enough because I know that page never really changes so i added the text underneath and it works

    These product pages I just can't figure it out

    Any pointers

    Thanks
