Clearance section (duplicating Specials?)

Hi all,

I need to set up a clearance section, and was wondering the best way to do this. I need to keep the Specials page, so is it possible to duplicate this somehow?

I thought about just adding a separate category for it, but this creates an extra link in my navigation which I don't want.

The site is here - https://www.dr-um.com

Cheers in advance for any help :smile:

Thanks for the reply. I'm not really looking for another sidebox though. I probably wasn't very clear, if I add it as another category it will create a link in my header, which just looks cluttered. Is there anyway to prevent that happening?

This is what is defining the header links at the moment..

<?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . zen_get_module_directory(FILENAME_CATEGORIES_TABS)); ?> <?php if (CATEGORIES_TABS_STATUS == '1' && sizeof($links_list) >= 1) { ?> <div id="navCatTabs"> <ul> <?php for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($links_list); $i<$n; $i++) { ?> <li><?php echo $links_list[$i];?></li> <?php } ?> </ul> </div> <?php } ?>

All I want it to show is what is there at the moment, and not include the Clearance link that will appear.

BUMP

Ignoring all the last few posts about the header links, does anybody know a way to duplicate specials to create a separate clearance section?

I stupidly realised that just creating a category for Clearance wont work, as I still need to make the sale price appear, which could only be done by the Specials admin..doh.
