question on front page layout

I have 1.35 & column grid.

I would like to have just the most recent added items on the front page but with no:

"new products for the month"

no price.

I have been searching......all day I have been zenning it and racking my brain.

is there a link to answer this question?

thanks :)

Re: question on front page layout

Start with admin config > Maximum Values > New Product Listing - Limited to ... > set to one of the selections

admin > config > new listing > Display Product Price > set to "0" =off

If you want to change the header title for "new products for the month" - search in admin > tools > developers tools > bottom left box > enter "new products for the month" > dropdown > catalog files > search > the files with this text will be listed and you can then open a "copy" edit the text to what you want save and place in your template override folder that you have or might need to create

I did that and it still shows :) That why I am confused. I set to "0" on browse and it shows no price.

Re: question on front page layout

Thanks to Kobra (YOU rock!)

If you choose to not have the words "New Products for 'Month' but still want the new products on the front.

Go to includes/languages/YOUR TEMPLATE/english.php

line 477

define('TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS', 'New Products For %s');

change to:

define('TABLE_HEADING_NEW_PRODUCTS', '');

Re: question on front page layout

The devel tools in the admin are a great feature...and now you know how to find most anything that you might need to tweak your install....remember to first check the admin built in finctions.

Re: question on front page layout

Sorry to but in, but....

Is there a way of removing these from the front page completely?

E.g. so that there is no "Featured Products" and no "New Products..." and no "Monthly specials" ?

Thanks....Jaz

Clyde,

You take the even ones & I'll take the odd ones...

At least were giving similar to the same suggestions

Maybe you & I should meet at a "Hot Spot" and sit next to each other and so this???

Re: question on front page layout

Sorry, but the price is still showing up on my new listings on the front page only.

And yes, I did change it zero.

See pic.

When I click on New Listing (under Categories) there is no price. Just the front page.

Is there two different types of New Listings?
