shaunklink Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Can I completly remove certain elements an osCommerce shop? for example, from a vanilla install (or fresh install), can I just remove the Categories, what's new, manufacturers, quick find, reviews, etc etc, straight from the code? will this mess anything up? Can I reposition things if I wanted by putting the function calls in different areas? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 Yes - if you know what you are doing :P You can comment out boxes in /includes/column_left.php and column_right.php - thats where most people start. You can move code around a surprising amount without breaking the store. Why not just do a test installation and have a good play? - its fun! :D Matti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I can't find how to get rid of the Upcoming products list, and the New products for April list (or whatever month it is).... anysuggestions?

shaunklink Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 I really want to strip this thing down as much as I can, there is way more then what I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 you will find the 'breadcrumb' and top bar in /includes/header.php - the other is in footer.php The upcoming products and new products files are in the /includes/modules/ directory - you can simply make these files blank (untested!)

Wendy James Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 You should check out the tips and tricks area, lots of great information, as well as the knowledgease. I learned a lot just from reading posts and got ideas I would never have thought of on my own for making osc look and feel like I wanted, and run even better than it already does. =) Wendy James Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
