Hi

I installed Zen Cart to the following directory:

However I want the Zen Cart home page to be the main page as followings:

Can I do this without having to un-install and re-install Zen Cart?

The reason for this is that I have been told that entry pages put customers off?

The tutorials/FAQ section is full of good information.

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

another way to do this is by adding a .htaccess file to your public_html directory.

write the following in a text file called .htaccess (no .txt) and copy it to your public directory:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(catalogue)/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /catalogue/$1 [L]

this should work - it does for mine
