    Idea or Suggestion How can I have random products in the center column of the zencart first page.

    Prior to selecting a category. How can I have random products in the center column of the zencart first page. I like the way it looks just would like to rotate the products shown on the home page.

    The site is here.
    http://pepperspalace.com/cart/

    You always see the same three products every time you visit the site. How can we randomize this so different products come up every time. I saw a random product addon but it only provides a single product sidebox.

    How can I accomplish this either by adapting this contrib or starting from scratch?

    Default Re: How can I have random products in the center column of the zencart first page.

    The featured centerbox should randomize by default. Do you have more than three featured products?

    Your template is heavily reworked, and a bunch of the standard structure is missing or different. It looks like a Template Monster template except that some common diagnostic marks are not showing... Your template maker may have crippled the featured function. Ask them what is happening first, as only they can know how the PHP code is different from standard.

    Thanks I will check that next. This issue is a non issue for most people that did not buy template monster templates. THANKS AGAIN
