You can look at the settings of the latest products module of our demo website for an example.

Sarah www.acrossthetracksrecords.com")* Thank you for all of your help. I have had a few day of working on my own business, and now want to make some progress (I am nearly there) with the record site. I am still trying to display featured items on the home page. I think I am going to find it hard to describe the problems, but I will give it a go. I have created a module called featured products. Firstly, with options given for position, do not include the main body of the page, so I have used the banner position. Is this the best option? Secondly, if you look at the products on the home page, there is only one. That item is contained in the folder "product category" (where it is by accident) All of the other products are in the sub-folders, and they do not appear on the home page. Thirdly, the title of the module is not showing, even though I have the option, in the module, selected to show title. There are other problems with the individual category pages, but perhaps it would be best to sort out one set of problems at a time.

You can do that by going in the menu Display->Content modules and editing your module. For the title, it's because your template is made to not display the title on the banner position. So you could try to use another position.

Sarah www.acrossthetracksrecords.com")* Thank you, I have now fixed the display on the home page as described. With regard to using a position other than the banner position, none of the other positions display in the main body of the page. They are either in the right hand or left hand columns, or the display below the main body. So I do not know how to get them in the main body other than banner position? My next problem, is with the category pages themselves. The products have a different background colour than the featured items on the home page. I cannot find what is governing the style of the items as in firebug, where you usualy get the name of the style sheet, the name of the category is appearing? THe featued items background is governed by the display> default perameters for divs, so I cannot find where to change the colour described above.

Sarah www.acrossthetracksrecords.com")* Hi. I too have created a module, I have assigned the root product category so that (I hope) it pulls products from any of the product categories. I set it into a module position. It only ever shows a random product when I go into the shop and into a category. On all other pages like the home page, nothing but the module title is displayed. What do I have to configure to have random products from ALL categories of product to show on any page, not just in the shop pages?
