How do i use 'Featured Products' in different groups?
 
What im trying to do is use the featured products section in the admin area to make seperate featured product groups according to the POS number.

www.more-japan.com

if you look at the front page under the banner..
u'll notice the top 6 featured products.
Those are used with the 'Featured Products' in the admin area.
The 3 products below that in the Outlet section is hard coded with HTML.

I want to use the Featured Products in the admin area with both the 'Top 6' and 'Top Outlet Items'. (and in other areas, but once i see how to do it once..i can figure out the rest myself..)

Example:
We're using this style with our categories section..
heres the coding for it..
Code:
{* $Id: categories.tpl,v 1.23 2004/06/24 09:53:29 max Exp $ *}
{capture name=menu}
<img src="{$ImagesDir}/tpl_cathead_category.gif"><br>
<br>
{if $active_modules.Fancy_Categories ne ""}
{include file="`$fancycategories_config.modules_path`/fancy_categories.tpl"}
{else}
{if $config.General.root_categories eq "Y"}
{section name=cat_num loop=$categories}
{if $categories[cat_num].order_by < 500}
{if $categories[cat_num].avail ne "H"}
<FONT class="CategoriesList"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/tpl_categories_reddot.gif">&nbsp;<A href="home.php?cat={$categories[cat_num].categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$categories[cat_num].category}</A></FONT><BR>{/if}
&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{$ImagesDir}/tpl_categories_seperator.gif"><br>
{/if}
{/section}
<FONT class="CategoriesList"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/tpl_categories_reddot.gif">&nbsp;<A href="SSR.php" class="VertMenuItems">Wheels</A></FONT><BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{$ImagesDir}/tpl_categories_seperator.gif"><br>
{else}
{section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories}
{if $subcategories[cat_num].avail ne "H"}
<FONT class="CategoriesList"><A href="home.php?cat={$subcategories[cat_num].categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$subcategories[cat_num].category}</A></FONT><BR>
{/if}
{/section}
{/if}
{/if}


{/capture}
{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_categorie.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_categories menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu }

any ideas on how to do it with the Featured Products(or just products in general)?

Helloo.

Checkout Firetank's Featured Products Mod. It costs $99 but it's worth it. The mod gives you free control over your featured products. you can show them everywhere in the shop, no limits.

Click here to see the mod

BTW: your shop is showing a bad sql error in internet explorer "Invalid query: MySQL[1130]: Host 'viper.ewdhosting.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL Server"

really?..where? i dont see it.

regarding the Firetank product;
I've seen it. im sure it'll get the job done. i just dont need it that often for me to purchase it for $99. if i can see how to do it once, i can figure it out how to do it again myself. but thanks for that.
