Then it looks like you are checking if the page is the main/home page and telling the value to be 'false.'
I started with my own basic layout mod by following some instructions I found in the X-Cart 5 guide and am making some sense of the way things work. Are there anymore tutorials and/or guides that I should be referencing if I want to create some mods? I'll probably make a new thread to explain what I want to do and get some opinions from other users who may also be interested.
Thanks!

Yes, X-Cart 5 code is quite terse and little pieces of code can force quite big changes.
http://kb.x-cart.com is the only source of docs we have. However, now I have a big goal to improve dev docs for X-Cart 5 and I am focusing on it right now, so the docs will be expanding in the near future. You can post suggestions about what you would like to see there, so I could better adjust my plans.
Also, I will be giving updates on forums about work I have done.
Anyway, I scheduled the mod about how to change number of products on home page and I will update this thread once I am done with it.
Tony.
