Custom Page For Each Category

Hi

I've created a custom main page (by commenting out all elements except the footer) using an image with links to the 4 categories in my catalog.

I'd like to take this one step further by having the links from my main page link to another single image with links before going to my cataloge (either that or a large single image between the sideboxes and the user could use the categories sidebox to navigate).

My site can be found at http://www.imagocollections.com.au

Any help on achieving this would be really appreciated. I'm selling designer clothing so image is fairly important - most of the designer clothing sites have at least two levels of images before you reach their catalog.

Thanks

Re: Custom Page For Each Category

You can use the top category description field to put whatever images/links you want on the category landing pages.
Admin > Configuration > Index Listing will let you control some of what appears on those pages.

Alternatively, you could use an ez-page for each category, which then links to the subcategories. This would take a bit of customization to keep the standard top category pages from appearing in menus etc..

Re: Custom Page For Each Category

Excellent - putting the html into the categories description was just what i was after. Thought it was going to be alot harder.
