Hi there I would like to add a flash page to the front of my site like some of the larger company?s have before customers enter my shop. I?m assuming this is possible somewhere as I can see you have to tabs areas at the top of the page Top & Catolog. Is there the possibility that you would be able to use the top area as the flash page? Then after flash has finished it says click here to enter and it would bring you into the catolog area?. Please if any body can help me or has done this to there web site please let me know what I have to access to do it cheers.

 

Thank You Very Much B) :D

Install the store in a subdirectory, insert the Flash movie on the index.html page in your root folder and after it's finished playing - insert a 'getURL' command into the movie to redirect off to the store directory.

How do I create a sub directory ? And also where should the sub directory be and do I put everything in the sub directory eg.....cgi-bin cgi_data logs public_html ? I realy don't want to mess up my site in doing this so as much info on how I do this would be great I will make sure I back Up first

Another way to do it is to rename your catalog/index.php to something like index1.php.

then in catalog/includes/filenames.php find this line

define('FILENAME_DEFAULT', 'index.php');

change to

define('FILENAME_DEFAULT', 'index1.php');

Then create the file as per the previous post and put it in the catalog folder.

You name it index.php or index.htm and make the final call to index1.php
