Changing the "Categories"

[mikelludwig]

Hi Guys,

 

Not sure if I have commented out the wrong bit of code, but when I go to a Category I only get the word "Categories" instead of the actual category eg "Boys Clothes".

 

Can someone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks

Have you added another category named "Boys Clothes" or edited the previous ones???

If you haven't added a new category just click the new category button in the admin area.

maybe I misunderstood, but if you are in a topcat that has subcats, the dafult heading is in fact "categorie" and not the category name. You need a contribution like "header tags" (has other great features also, a must have) to fix this.

Ok - sounds like I'm in the wrong here. I'll check out the contribution you suggested.

 

Thanks

Hi Guys,

 

Just to end this thread off. Here is a link to the contribution that sorted out what I wanted. It replaces the "Categories" and "Lets see what we have here" text with the category/sub cat name.

Thank you all that replied.

Mikel, we know about that contribution ... but it only takes care of those 2 things, while header tags would have boosted your SEO at the same time. Your decision of course.

Thanks for the reply. But this is my first osCommerce project and I needed to keep things simple otherwise my head would explode :)

 

To cover the SEO side of things, I have a full site with static html pages, full of marketing material and keyphrases, that should lead people to the shop. Lets hope ;)
