At http://server.npserver2.com/~shop/ I have put the breadcrumbs back on my site, and have altered them (putting the words "You Are Here" in front) in the location.tpl file. I also know how to alter the css, so I'm fine there.

What I can't figure out how to do is to change the 'Shop Naturally Healthy Households' to say HOME instead. I know changing the company name will do this, but I can't have the word HOME inserted everywhere I need the company name to go.

I also don't want the breadcrumbs to display on the front page, but I want them everywhere else. How do I do this? I have seen it done on other sites.

Do I have to remove {include file="location.tpl"} from it's current spot on the customer/home.tpl file and put it in the product and the category pages by hand? I'm just not sure which templates and where, each time I have tried, I failed.

Version 4.1.11

Thanks

I actually want to exclude something from the homepage, and also need to change the name of the shop in the first part of the breadcrumb. I couldn't find anything in that post to help me. Thanks for the pointer though. That may come in handy elsewhere.

well, you want to test for the homepage, and if it's not the homepage, display the breadcrumbs...

I don't understand exactly where this code is supposed to go. While I'm not too bad customising x-cart, the understanding of this particular piece of code is beyond me. I know very little about PHP.

The if statement for the homepage is:

{if $main eq "catalog" and $current_category.category eq ""}

make sure you put a closing {/if}

You can also use an {else} or {elseif}

Read all about if/then statements here:

In your home.tpl..

you need an if statement so IF its the homepage, don't put the location ELSE put the location file

Ah, now I'm grasping the concept. It's almost midnight here. I think I might sleep on it and start fiddling with the code in the morning.

Thanks for your help. Always good to learn a new trick
