Guest Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 OK, I know the answer is probably really simple, but I'm brand new to osCommerce. On the index page, I would like to show featured products rather than new products. Any suggestions? :blink:
jimmer Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 You can force products into the New Products box (which you can rename to Featured Products should you wish) by altering products_date_added in table products in the database to a date in the current month. However when the month changes there will be no new products again so you'll have to do it all over again. Unfortunately if you change the date to a future month it won't show up in new products either, although it will when that future month is current. Jim

As for having to reload it each month, its probably not a good idea to keep the same "featured items" for too long anyway.... :thumbsup:
