no worries.. Turns out I mis-wrote what I was looking for.. I need to ADD counts to my best Sellers..

Open "/includes/classes/order.php" and take a look at line #748. Appears you may be able to comment this out (will also have to do for "Edit Orders") to stop Zen Cart from updating the products_ordered field. However this will break the "admin" statistics for products purchased.

You could also open "/includes/templates/your_template_name/sideboxes/tpl_best_sellers.php" and remove where it adds the count (do not see this displayed in my stock ZC install).

And of course see this after I posted how to ADD the counts... Subsequently deleted my answer... And added how to stop them from incrementing!

Good thing Firefox still had my old response in the cache!

"Oh WHERE oh WHERE can it be?
Not in any settings that I can see,
But perhaps we can code something."

Could not resist ;)

In "/includes/modules/sideboxes/best_sellers.php" add the following (around line 68):

$bestsellers_list[$rows]['name']  = $best_sellers->fields['products_name'];
$bestsellers_list[$rows]['count'] = $best_sellers->fields['products_ordered'];
$best_sellers->MoveNext();

In your template's copy of "/includes/templates/your_template_name/sideboxes/tpl_best_sellers.php" change the following (around line 15):

for ($i=1; $i<=sizeof($bestsellers_list); $i++) {
  $content .= '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($bestsellers_list[$i]['id']), 'products_id=' . $bestsellers_list[$i]['id']) . '">' . zen_trunc_string($bestsellers_list[$i]['name'], BEST_SELLERS_TRUNCATE, BEST_SELLERS_TRUNCATE_MORE) . '(' . zen_output_string((string)$bestsellers_list[$i]['count']) . ')</a></li>' . "\n";
}

I've not tested the changes, but should hopefully point you in the right direction. Feel free to make changes and provide updated code with a better working example :)
