Modifying the Product Listing Page & Contact page

Hi, I am building my first cart simply, just modifying the classic template. I have found most of the answers but can't figure these out:

1. On the product listing page, I don't want the row that says
"Image" "Item Name" and "Price"

Can't find anyplace in admin or the modules or language files to turn off or comment out.

2. Same page, since this is a one category store, I don't need the repetitive #Product List Heading and smaller #ProductListCatDescription names to appear but can't find the switches for those either.

I don't want to do a silly css hack of making the text black but don't know any better :)

3. For the contact page, where do you change the default information for your store location etc. Seems like that would be obvious but it isn't in Admin/My Store where I expected it to be, so I am stuck with this on the contact page:
zencart
Address
Country
Phone

site is here:

Thank you,
Julie

Re: Modifying the Product Listing Page & Contact page

  1. In your stylesheet.css:

Find: "productListing-rowheading"
and Add the following just before "}" :
"display:none;"

  1. Not quite clear what you want to do.

  2. You don't seem to have a contact page, do you mean "about" page?

You can turn off the contact page address info in Configuration --> Email options you set the store info not to show (Contact Us - Show Store Name and Address)

But the store address info should be controlled by the My Store menu.

Re: Modifying the Product Listing Page & Contact page

  1. h1#productListHeading {display: none;}

#ProductListCatDescription is text that you have entered in the category editing page. Delete this, leaving the description blank, and that one should disappear.

  1. Configuration > My Store > Store Address and Phone.

Re: Modifying the Product Listing Page & Contact page

By the way, you really should make your own copy of the classic template to save your changes in. As long as you know what files you have changed, all you have to do is make a copy of all /classic/ folders and the files in them, changing the folder name to your own, and edit /your_template/template_info.php to reflect your custom name.
This has the benefit of keeping a backup untouched in case you mess up an edit, as well as protecting your work from being wiped out in an upgrade.

Thank you all for the answers.
I have discovered the miraculous power of "display: none" which was a css style I never needed until now.
Also thanks for the advice, I will make and rename a copy of the template as suggested.
Store info -- duh, I just saw Store Owner and the Country at the top of the list in the My Store Admin page and didn't look down further.

The only one not yet resolved is the small "jewelry" from the #ProductListCatDescription.
With the dizzying array of ways to modify zencart for a newbie, can you remind me where I go to find the category editing page description?
I looked in Admin - Tools-define pages and in Catalog - Products/Categories.
Then via FTP hunted around in the includes/languages folders...hhmmmm

Catalog - Products/Categories > index of categories > click the "e" button (edit) to the right of your category name. You will see the description field there.

Aha! Got it and made a note - I usually use Joomla but this is also fun to learn.

Ok, I just looked my stylesheet over twice and this entry isn't in mine.
Is this something that needs to be added?

You're just jealous that the voices only talk to me!
