    Default New, or featured etc products to show at the bottom of a product listing

    Am I completely being blind and missing this as an option in admin, or is this not actually possible, and needs coding.

    I just want to have the new products, or featured to show on every product page below the product listing.

    Thanks..

    Maybe I should reword it - when I mean listing, I dont mean the list of all the products, I mean the actual individual product page.

    I don't think I've ever seen this question before, but far as I know, there's no option to display the New Products, Featued, etc. on the product info page.

    You could probably code it to do that.

    stevesh is correct that there is nothing built into Zen Cart for this feature and that you could customize the code to manage this type of display ...

    You might look at the shopping_cart template to see how it is calling the centerboxes ...

    Then, you can customize it for your needs ...

    I thought it would be a good idea, as you could have 'related' products. Say for instance you have an electrical item, and most would people would need certain adaptors or accessories to fit, it could be in the category below the product description.

    Default Re: New, or featured etc products to show at the bottom of a product listing

    Well I found the code that calls the boxes on the tpl_index_default.php...


    /**
    * display the Featured Products Center Box
    */
    ?>
    <?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_featured_products.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_featured_products.php'); ?>
    <?php } ?>

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



    And pasted it in the tpl_product_display.php in various places for testing, but it just makes the centrebox and right column vanish no matter where I put it....

    Any ideas?
