You can't do that - you need to make it a .tpl file - should be as easy as simply changing the extension and putting it in the skin1 directory.

Hi,

But i call html b4 with version 4.3? i thought something missing?

Thanks

That isn't the proper way to be doing it, even if it worked before. Just rename it to a tpl file and put it in the skin1 directory, it is the correct method and won't take you 2 seconds.

HI balinor,

Thanks, i'll do that but is this logic correct?

{include file="homepage.tpl"}{/if}>
{else}
<div id="page-container">
<div id="page-container2">

customer/main/welcome.tpl is already coded to do just that - you seem to be doing more work than you need to. But yes, that logic is correct.

This welcome.tpl only change the middle of the page isn't it? but i want totally new front page

Ah, then yes, this method will work for you.

Is there already a preset way of displaying a static home page (landing page) which then directs customer to the shop via a 'click here to enter shop' type of design.

You used to be able to choose to have a html home page, and then click through to shop. Only we want to be a bit more creative with our home page.

Those kinds of portal pages will kill your seo. But if you want to do that, just create an index.html page, and then change your .htaccess file to:

DirectoryIndex index.html home.php index.php
