Guest Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I know there's a script for it. Did you look in the contributions section?

bkellum Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Thanks but exactly where can i find that script You could do this fairly easily by just modifying the SQL query in new_products.php as so. How to display Random Products in the New Products for Month box on the main page: Modify one file: /includes/modules/new_products.php Find: p.products_date_added desc Change to: RAND() Your code will end up looking like so: /*//Modified to show 9 random products rather than the 9 latest products added if ( (!isset($new_products_category_id)) || ($new_products_category_id == '0') ) { $new_products_query = tep_db_query("select p.products_id, p.products_image, p.products_tax_class_id, if(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price) as products_price from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p left join " . TABLE_SPECIALS . " s on p.products_id = s.products_id where products_status = '1' order by p.products_date_added desc limit " . MAX_DISPLAY_NEW_PRODUCTS); } else { $new_products_query = tep_db_query("select distinct p.products_id, p.products_image, p.products_tax_class_id, if(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price) as products_price from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p left join " . TABLE_SPECIALS . " s on p.products_id = s.products_id, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_TO_CATEGORIES . " p2c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES . " c where p.products_id = p2c.products_id and p2c.categories_id = c.categories_id and c.parent_id = '" . (int)$new_products_category_id . "' and p.products_status = '1' order by p.products_date_added desc limit " . MAX_DISPLAY_NEW_PRODUCTS); } // commented above and added modified sql below for random products */ if ( (!isset($new_products_category_id)) || ($new_products_category_id == '0') ) { $new_products_query = tep_db_query("select p.products_id, p.products_image, p.products_tax_class_id, if(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price) as products_price from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p left join " . TABLE_SPECIALS . " s on p.products_id = s.products_id where products_status = '1' order by RAND() limit " . MAX_DISPLAY_NEW_PRODUCTS); } else { $new_products_query = tep_db_query("select distinct p.products_id, p.products_image, p.products_tax_class_id, if(s.status, s.specials_new_products_price, p.products_price) as products_price from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p left join " . TABLE_SPECIALS . " s on p.products_id = s.products_id, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_TO_CATEGORIES . " p2c, " . TABLE_CATEGORIES .
