ehendley Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 What determines the new products displayed? I am a newbie to osCommerce & PHP but well versed in programming (Web sites, VB, Java, etc). I thought it might be the product date introduction but it only list 9 out of 40. Thanks in advance and to date ... this forum has worked very well for us. Thanks for the help! r/ ed

[/quote]New products are selected by DATE ADDED (MOST RECENT). You can modify the amount displayed in the admin>configuration>Maximum Values>New Products Module You can "trick" the products to be displayed by modifying the database entry on time the product was added to the catalog. Table=products column=products_date_added --Not to confuse your customers I would also recommend removing the code in catalog/product_info.php that displays the date the product was added on the product specific page. <tr> <td align="center" class="smallText"><?php echo sprintf(TEXT_DATE_ADDED, tep_date_long($product_info['products_date_added'])); ?></td> </tr> or you can install featured products which will let you select which products to use.
