Default Alter subcategories_t.tpl to remove categories from homepage

<ul>
{foreach from=$subcategory.childs item=v}
<li><a href="home.php?cat={$v.categoryid}">{$v.category}< /a>{if $config.Appearance.count_products eq "Y"} <b>({$v.product_count})</b>{/if}</li>

{/foreach}
<div class="clearing{if !$smarty.foreach.items_matrix.last} separator-h{/if}"></div>
{/foreach}
<div class="separator-v i1"></div>
<div class="separator-v i2"></div>
</div>
<div class="clearing"></div>
{/if}

Hoping someone will be able to help. I have recently been dropping in google for my main keywords and think that one issue is due to too many links from my homepage. I'm now looking to remove all category links shown on the homepage as I have the top navigation anyway. Does anyone know how I would alter the template to have the desired effect?

Many thanks
Paul

Default Re: Alter subcategories_t.tpl to remove categories from homepage

This template is used for categories pages only. I think stock cart does not include categories on home page. If you have them then it is something custom for your site.

Look in customer/main/welcome.tpl under your skin directory - this is the template that loads for home page

{* / WCM - xCMS *}

Thanks Steve,

I've already looked in there as attached above but can't find any reference to it. The reason I post a copy of the templates_t file is because if I comment out the file or change it's name, the categories don't show on home page, but also don't show on category page?

Thanks
Paul

It's right there in front of you

Code:
{if $categories} {include file="customer/main/subcategories_t.tpl"} {/if}

Either delete or comment out this if statement
