cpath is it needed?

Do I need to keep the cpath for internal links?

"' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($products_new->fields['products_id']), 'cPath=' . zen_get_generated_category_path_rev($products_new->fields['master_categories_id']) . '&products_id=' . $products_new->fields['products_id']) . '"

"' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($products_new->fields['products_id']), '&products_id=' . $products_new->fields['products_id']) . '"

Is there any risk from removing the cPath section from the links?

Why would you want to remove the cPath from the URL? :unsure:

That would be telling :)

having the cPath in the url breaks what I'm doing, so I either need ALL links to products to have the cPath, or ALL links to products not to have the cPath in the url.

Is there any reason why removing cPath from the link url in all products and new products would break the store in any way.

Also, which file controls the new products listing on the index page, as I would need to remove the cPath section from the link to product url

In theory, it should not break anything with or without the cPath ...

Which file controls the new products listing on the index page, as I would need to remove the cPath section from the link to product url

Perhaps read your other post where I broke down all the files for the Products New Listing page ...

I can't find it the part responsible for the index page list.

Sorry, i'm obviously being an idiot.

You need to be more specific on what it is you are trying to change ...

There are a number of Listings ...

Product Listing is what you see when you navigate the Categories ... and anything in the middle, center boxes are managed separately ...

New Products which is a link from the Categories sidebox is its own page, as described in the other link where you asked about the Products New and All listings ...

The All Products is a separate page where its starting point, similar to the New Products that I broke down for you would start with the:
/includes/modules/pages/products_all/header_php.php

What specific listing are you trying to change? :unsure:

Sorry,

on the main index below your defined text the page can display a selection of your new products.

I need to edit the file responsible for displaying the new products on the index page or perhaps better to call it home page

I'm not talking about the dedicated new products page.

The centerbox for the new products is built in the:
/includes/modues/new_products.php

use your templates and overrides to make these changes by copying the file to:
/includes/modues/your_template_dir/new_products.php

thank you, it is all done now. :)

What file controls the listing if you are looking at a list of products in a category or you are seeing search results?

Look at the:
/includes/modules/product_listing.php

do a search in the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... in the bottom input box for:
product_listing.php

to find the files that call that ...

greatly appreciated :)

there appears to be a slight padding around the image that is displayed in the search listing.

would that be in the main stylesheet.css?

Not clue ... I am not a designer type ...

.productListing-data img {
padding: 10px;
}

In main stylesheet.css
