Is there a way....

look at this page:
http://overspeedmotorsports.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=9

it's a category with no subcategories/products. is there a way to put HTML or a message or whatever in there instead of listing products?

EDITED: Never, ever post the zen_id or zenAdminID (session id) in a forum, email, newsgroup, newsletter, advertisement, etc. etc. etc. or you will be doomed ... :eek:

Re: Is there a way....

Easiest way to deal with this is to go to Admin > Categories/Products and click on the green button for the empty category. Then it will not display at all. You can click on the now red button to turn it on when you add the first product in there.

Re: Is there a way....

  1. Enable the HTML editor under Configuration-> My Store by selecting "HTMLAREA"

  2. You can add HTML into the category description field.

  3. You can disable the text that says "There are no products to list in this category. " by modifying the inde.php file located at /includes/languages/english/ Line #40.

Change this line
define('TEXT_NO_PRODUCTS', 'There are no products to list in this category.');

to

define('TEXT_NO_PRODUCTS', '');
