Re: How can I add a link to the main page?

Easiest way is to use the Define Pages editor and add the link to the main page -- I have several at the start of mine.

Re: How can I add a link to the main page?

base on your template design, i guess you are not planning on using Ezpages, either in your header or footer or in side box ..
the most logical location to have a link to your Forum at the top in same line as HOME, Login / Register .
if that is the case , let me know , and will help you get the link up there with few tiny modification .

I do want to add in the side box, here is whats in my mind:

  1. move the "information box" above the "Brands Box"
  2. move specials and Featured Product into "information Box"
  3. Add "Beauty talk--- the link" in "information Box"
  4. remove "home" on the upper left corner

I am not sure how to use EZpages.........

Thank you so much,

Re: How can I add a link to the main page?

two out of four is simple , the rest i have to look into ..

to move information side box .. in admin select
Tools > Layout boxes controllers ..

Select category side box , and assign left column sort order grater then 0 ( zero ) ..
but for information side box , left column sort order set to 0 ( zero ) .

this should move information side box , above your category ( brands )

for home link .. now you need to edit some php.. :ohmy:
open tpl_header.php .. it should be in your override . if is not there , then you should override it .
location .. includes / templates / YOUR TEMPLATE / common
BACK UP , BACK UP . BACK UP
look for following php code
<li><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'; ?><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a></li>

remove it .. save , upload .. that should remove the HOME link on top of your tool bar.

will look into other issue .
