Hi, I have two questions regarding customisation of VPASP:

1) How can I put the graphical list of categories on the front page - what sub/include do I need to use ?

2) is there a list somewhere of all the functions/includes that can be used ?

Paul.

Thanks, but the help files don't say how to show the category display on the front page (not just a link to the category display page)... at least I can't find it in the help.

ITEM # 1
I had a recent client that wanted that done. Easy solution was to grab a COPY of the shopdisplaycategories.asp file, rename it to index.asp, and add a few tiny customizations here and there.

Wah-laa new home page with graphical display in the body of the categories.

Keep in mind that I changed the category display to just show the images, no text or descriptions.

Regards,
