Stop Display of New Products Box - How To?

[gameparts]

Which file do I need to edit to stop the display of the "New Products for November" box? That is the box in the middle of the page toward the bottom of my main page. http://www.afterthehoneymoon.net. I can't figure it out. Thanks!

I figured it out! You have to go to the "new_products.php" file in the includes/modules directory and "/*........*/"out the code. Anyone with questions can email me: cmorgan@vintagegamestore.com

May you please post it here so others with that problem won't have to email you. I will send email and then post it here for others.

Just replace the ENTIRE file new_products.php code with this code:

<?php

new contentBoxHeading($info_box_contents);

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 " .

Just 1 of two things I was looking for the past week.

Thanks heaps.

I was hoping to have the category items in place of the "New Products"

Someone has suggested to change $cPath = 0 in includes/application_top.php

but that removes the welcome screen - any help would be highly appreciate.

Thanks once again and well done - monju
