Remove 'new products' section form product pages.

[Num85]

How can oscommerce stores be edited so that the 'New Products for Month' listing is no longer displayed on category/product pages such as this one

 

I would like to remove all instances of this to focus more on the featured products that I have placed on the site.

The area in question is at the bottom with header 'New products for July'

Hi,

 

Depending on which 'featured products' contribution you have installed, in most cases the featured products contributions replace the new products box. Some contributions have alternate code to allow you to edit whether to display only featured products or both featured products and new products.

 

The one I usually use is:

Good luck

Go at catalog->index.php and find this code at near the bottom(at line 311).

 

include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS);

 

then replace to this code

 

#include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS);

 

and you're done

Thanks for the replies, I had removed the section in question from index.php however it also appears on the category pages.

 

Looking at the source code being generated client side it gives the following:

 

<!-- new_products //-->
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
 <tr>
<td height="14" class="contentBoxHeading"><img src="images/contentBox/corner_left.gif" width="11" height="14" border="0" alt=""></td>
<td height="14" class="contentBoxHeading" width="100%">New Products For July</td>
<td height="14" class="contentBoxHeading"><img src="images/contentBox/corner_right_left.gif" width="11" height="14" border="0" alt=""></td>
 </tr>

</table>
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" class="contentBox">
 <tr>
<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" class="contentBoxContents">
</table>
</td>
 </tr>
</table>
<!-- new_products_eof //-->

 

Not too sure which file needs to be edited to remove this.

Any ideas?

There are 2 of <td><?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?></td> in index, remove both.

I must have missed that - thanks Sam.
