I'm really not that familiar with CRE Loaded. 2) <strong>MAX_DISPLAY_SEARCH_RESULTS</strong> controls how many products (and other things) are displayed on lot of php pages. To change this, edit the <strong>Admin » Configuration » <i>Search Results</i></strong> property from 10 to 9. 1) Not sure how to place certain things in a SSL vs non-SSL fashion.

If I may I was wondering if I could pick your brains for a couple of other problems I am having: 1. When I installed CRE Loaded is decided which pages needed to be secured (I guess this is what happened when I checked the SSL bit), pages like My account I can understand, but it also put "New Products", is that right? Is there a way of not making that secure e.g. changing it from https:// to http:// 2. CRE Loaded seems to list products 10 to a page... is there anyway to make it 9 so I can get 3 rows of 3? MANY THANKS Andy. Ah brilliant thankyou, I have tried that and it worked great. If I may I was wondering if I could pick your brains for a couple of other problems I am having:

If you look in the file <strong>/templates/cre63_ats/header.php</strong> and examine lines 34-44 (roughly), you will see the 'top_bar' section enclosed in an <strong>if statement</strong>. Now you could just remove or comment out that whole section, or you could examine the conditions in the if statement... <pre><?php if (cre_site_branding('storeurl') != '' || cre_site_branding('phone') != '' || cre_site_branding('email') != ''){ ?></pre> In there, you will notice that if all of the above branding items are empty strings, that whole section of code won't get printed. The values that are being cross referenced are: <ul> <li>storeurl = Admin » Design Controls » Branding Manager » <i>Website</i></li> <li>phone = Admin » Design Controls » Branding Manager » <i>Support Phone</i></li> <li>email = Admin » Design Controls » Branding Manager » <i>Support Email</i></li> </ul> If you don't want to blank those out, you can just comment it out or add some weird condition to the if statement like 'if ( ( [insert previous statement] ) && false )' or whatever.

<?php
  if (cre_site_branding('storeurl') != '' || cre_site_branding('phone') != '' || cre_site_branding('email') != ''){
    ?>

In there, you will notice that if all of the above branding items are empty strings, that whole section of code won’t get printed. The values that are being cross referenced are:

  • storeurl = Admin » Design Controls » Branding Manager » Website
  • phone = Admin » Design Controls » Branding Manager » Support Phone
  • email = Admin » Design Controls » Branding Manager » Support Email

If you don’t want to blank those out, you can just comment it out or add some weird condition to the if statement like ‘if ( ( [insert previous statement] ) && false )’ or whatever.

I put the <code>...</code> in there to just mean "the rest of the code", it's not actually part of the code I'll remove those for confusion. The file should look like this... <pre>// close session (store variables) tep_session_close(); //cre_uregisterBasicFunctions(); if (STORE_PAGE_PARSE_TIME == 'true') {</pre> let me know how that works. @Alex I’m sorry.

The file should look like this…

// close session (store variables)
tep_session_close();
//cre_uregisterBasicFunctions();
if (STORE_PAGE_PARSE_TIME == 'true') {

let me know how that works.
