[More-Japan]

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..

{* $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.

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.
