Was reading another post from Tom at teh same time so mistakenly replied to him 🙁

Have not done anything yet as when i started to try and follow the video I found that teh Themes folder the video refers to is not present in my folder.

Tom, the reason I chose the blog layout was because when I was in the Joomshopping layout the sidenews module kept appearing on other joomshopping pages; even though it was only ticked to appear on the home page. I put in quite a few tickets but then edn result was that they believed it was a joomshopping issue and that I should update joomshopping. I did not do this as I could not see how it coudl work on the demo site which had the same configuration and then not on my site. Plus when I put something in user 1, 2, 3 positions then I had the same issue.

So all I am really trying to do is find a Menu Item Type for the home page that will just allow me to put the modules I want on the home page. Maybe there is an easier alternative than the Blog one that I have chosen. I thought there would be a blank page but I cannot find it.

ok first, that video is for creating your OWN themes so you can safely override anything you want to.
as for not updating, if you don’t follow the recommendations of the ticket folks then your really spinning your wheels. They are generally really accurate @ what they are saying….
I BELIEVE I was the one that assisted you in the ticket, and if so , I said so because the div’s that were calling that were not ja divs.
firebug can help you figure this out.
I”m really unclear as to exactly what it is your trying to accomplish.

Thanks Bear,

I sent an email to the joomshopping people trying to work out how to upgrade joomshopping to the latest version (as per your recommendation) am waiting for a reply. I have also updated Joomla as per your reccomendation.

Currently the rest of the site works fine and I am very happy with the template and the joomshopping functioning as my database.

My stumbling block is trying to get the HOME page finished. I really just want a blank front page that I can add the 2 modules to; Side News and the Slideshow/Slider that is currently on the home page. I don’t need anything else on the front page. Problem is I cannot work out a setting for the HOME page that will do that.

Hi Bear, Since my last post I have managed to download the latest version of Joomshopping. However, I still can’t get a response from Joomshopping on how to do teh upgrade. I tried just uploading the latest evrsion through the extension manager but it comes back with an error saying that file is already in use.
