Display Model Number on Category Page

Thanks... it almost sounds like it would be easier to start from scratch with ZenCart 1.50 and just make a new fresh and properly installed Template.

Quick question: I downloaded a sample template to install on my local fresh ZC Install, but im not sure where these files are supposed to go and I don't want to over-write the classic files.

You know how in Wordpress you have a Themes folder and you drop everything in there, is ZenCart the same way or do I have to move files to a whole bunch of different directories?

No... zencart does not work like WP.

You need to FTP the new template to the server.

In your FTP program,
for your LOCAL machine, navigate to the level in the new template, where you see the "includes" folder.
for your REMOTE SERVER, navigate to the level in the zencart installation, where you see the "includes" folder.

Then start the FTP.

This will not "overwrite" the folders on the server... it will just send the template files to their correct positions on the server.

When the FTP is complete, login to admin, and go to TOOLS >>> TEMPLATE SELECTION... Click EDIT and from the dropdown, select the new template and UPDATE.

Then, under TOOLS >>> LAYOUT BOXES CONTROLLER... scroll to the bottom of the screen and click RESET button/link
