Products to show on secondary pages?

Hello -
How do I get my secondary pages (any page except the Main Page) to display my products?

Re: Products to show on secondary pages?

Just to be clear, do I need to point the product listing the the EZ pages? Or is there (hopefully!!) an Admin control that will "turn on" the product listing on other pages like it does for the Main Page.

thanks,

Tony

The product listing page is a separate entity from ez-pages, define pages, etc. You would need some custom coding to get the listing on other pages, if it is even practical at all.

Re: Products to show on secondary pages?

so the only place you can list products is the Main Page?

Re: Products to show on secondary pages?

I think I found a way - I just revealed the categories on the main page, then copied the link-to page, hid the categories again on the mainpage, and finally pasted the link into each category of the Ez Pages that I set up. Not sure if there's a better way to do this but this works for now.

thanks

Aesthetically it's not there yet but the basic function is down. Click on either BOYS or GIRLS - those are the only pages with products.

Check it out:

I think I will have to make the FAQ, ABOUT US and CONTACT US all in HTML unless there is a better way for this?

thanks

Re: Products to show on secondary pages?

I see - you are using the ez-pages header bar to show links to the product listing pages. That was not the impression I got of your intentions from your previous posts.
You can also list the top categories with the categories-tabs menu, though that would appear as another header bar in addition to the ez-pages bar.

Yes, ez-pages can only handle HTML without a coding change (which has been discussed in the forum).
If you want PHP in your pages, your best bet is probably to use the About Us mod, which is really a guide to making new define pages.

Re: Products to show on secondary pages?

Or use the define page generator which is way faster than using the about us example
