Guest Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 I am trying to figure out how to go about getting more products to show up on the front page of my site which is makereadyus.com , I have edited the new_products.php, but not having a lot of luck, when you go to a category on the site it lists new products the way it should which is 2 rows of 3 items, but on the front page it only shows one row of three products, any suggestions? Also, the banner on the left hand side that is suppose to be below manufacturers does not show up. Thanks.
NodsDorf Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 Typically that is controlled in the admin Configuration>Maximum Values>New Products Module, however your site appears to be using a template and may not conform to those settings.
Guest Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 Yeah I am using a template. I tried going into Configuration>Maximum Values>New Products Module and changing it but it didn't do anything to the front page items. I can change the amount of new products listed inside categories with new_products.php but for some reason I just can't figure it out.
NodsDorf Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 I'm sure the code is somewhere in your index.php page. It maybe calling another / different infobox to display that stuff. From my experience with templates, I will say that even if we figured out how to make that 2 rows you'd probably end up having to re-arrange a bunch of other stuff since template was likely designed specifically for 1 row.
Guest Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 Ok I will look through index.php and see what I can find. The template was designed for 2 rows, you mentioned that it may be calling for a different infobox, while I am in Modules>Boxes there is a button up top that says + Install Module (2) when I click on it, it says Fatal error: Call to undefined function tep_banner_exists() in /home/content/74/7570274/html/includes/languages/english/modules/boxes/banner_header.php on line 13 Could this be a reason for the banner below manufacturers not showing up as well as it only showing 1 row?
Guest Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 Joshua, Your best support will be from the template creator so I suggest you contact them. Yes, they will more than likely charge you for support but they will be able to better deal with the template issues. Unfortunately, there are MANY sellers of osCommerce templates that are VERY poorly coded and seeking support here is only partially helpful as we can only guess what the template creator MIGHT have done to code the template.

Guest Posted September 10, 2011 Posted September 10, 2011 Thank you I will try to do that as well. As for the banner_header.php is there anything wrong with this code? ?> <?php if ($banner = tep_banner_exists('dynamic', 'banner6')) { echo tep_display_banner('static', $banner); }?>
