    Default Problem with homepage (index.php) is being forwarded to another page

    I'm having really hard time figuring out why my main page, index.php is being forwarded to one of my products listing. If you visit my website, www.elegantfragrances.com you will notice that it will forward you to http://www.elegantfragrances.com/ind...oducts_id=6208.

    Has anyone experienced similar problem in the past and knows how to fix this issue?

    Thanks for all of your help!!!!

    Do you have your site set to Always show Categories on main page? And does the Category only have 1 Product to it?

    If so, there is an automatic Skip Product Listing for Categories with 1 product and that could be what is happening there ...

    Configuration ... Layout Settings ...
    Categories - Always Show on Main Page
    Always Show Categories on Main Page
    0= off
    1= on
    Default category can be set to Top Level or a Specific Top Level
    Main Page - Opens with Category
    0= Top Level Categories
    Or enter the Category ID#
    Note: Sub Categories can also be used Example: 3_10

    Categories - Always Show on Main Page
    Always Show Categories on Main Page
    is actually set to 1

    and

    Main Page - Opens with Category
    is set to 0.

    I tried to use the developers tool kit to find "6208" in any of the files, but did not have any luck. It was not able to find this anywhere. Would there be another cause for this problem?

    Do you have both Products and Categories showing in the Admin ... Catalog ... Categories/Products ...

    Categories hold either Products or Categories ... never both ...

    It looks like you have a Product in the Top Level Category ...
