I was wanting to change the appearance of my home page to one of the static pages I had created. Does anyone know how to do this. Thank you.

That didn't quite help me out.....what i want to do is add the content of a static page onto the existing home.php. I do not know how to do this, since when a static page is called, it is called by ID. Can anyone help me with this. Thank you.

skin1/customer/main/welcome.tpl

Code:

{include file="./pages/US/yourpage.html"}

That worked, but how can I make it stay within the pages.php template that puts the border around it and such....

When I do this, I just get the include command displayed, not the page it references. What am I doing wrong?

Copy and paste the source code from the static page into the text_welcome language file?

Unless you need it to be synched up with the static page content - then you'll need the include reference. If that's what you need - copy and paste your welcome.tpl code so someone could help you debug.
