move specials above main page editor

[MB1]

i'm still scratching my head over this issue anyone have any new idea of what could of happened here?

[Calljj]

To display the main page defines text below all the specials and featured products find the line in the tpl_index_defines.php:

<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"><?php require($define_page); ?></div>

Then cut it and move it right down to the bottom of the file and reinsert it before the last </div> on the file, so the last two lines look like

<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"><?php require($define_page); ?></div>
</div>

or why not just make your main page defines text blank...so you can add images etc later if you want to above the featured/specials, and just pick a blank defines page (i.e i've used number 4 in this example) then add the following before the last </div> in the same file

<?php $define_page = zen_get_file_directory(DIR_WS_LANGUAGES . $_SESSION['language'] . '/html_includes/', FILENAME_DEFINE_PAGE_4, 'false'); 
?>
<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"><?php require($define_page); ?></div>

sorry, file is tpl_index_default, NOT tpl_index_defines as i wrote before!

[MB1]

what ever i do to the templates/mytemplate/templates/tpl_index_default.php does nothing i deleted my main custom greeting and the main text stuff in changes nothing on my main page?


then i deleted other random parts of the file still no change on my main page makes me assume this file isn't working for some reason or at least isn't being used

[MB1]

now i'm playing with the /templates/template_default/templates/tpl_index_default.php file and moved the main text content to the bottom of the page with no changes to the frontpage of the site. then i started cutting out everything up to the this peice of code

<?php if ($show_display_category->fields['configuration_key'] == 'SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MAIN_FEATURED_PRODUCTS') { ?>
<?php

nothing changed on the site and i cleared my cache and everything what is this file for and where is there another file that i might of missed

Same for me. Did you find a solution or reason?

I am by no means a PHP developer but so far I have got this to work by looking for the following code

<?php if (DEFINE_MAIN_PAGE_STATUS >= 1 and DEFINE_MAIN_PAGE_STATUS <= 2) {?>
<?php
/**
* get the Define Main Page Text
*/
?>
<div id="indexDefaultMainContent" class="content"><?php require($define_page); ?></div>
<?php } ?>

Cutting it from its present position and pasteing it immediately prior to the last </div>

So far I have only made this change in my localhost test store but it appears to be working fine.

I would appreciate feedback if this is not good coding or may cause problems later.
