Currently when the cart is cleared the URL which users are directed to is "MYSITE/index.php/component/hikashop/product/listing" I would like to know which file or files I would need to modify in order to change how this page is displayed. For instance, I would like the 'The cart is empty' message to continue to appear at the top. However I would like to remove all the code which causes the products to appear at this window and replace it with some of my very own code. How can I do this? Thank you again.

You have to go in HikaShop > Display > Views. To have a different view only when the cart is empty, you can add a parameter in the url when the cart is cleared, for example: "MYSITE/index.php/component/hikashop/product/listing/cart-empty" and then in the view file add controls to display your text, like: "if(JRequest::getString('cart','default')=='empty'{echo "Your text";}" Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzcxNjkzLWNoYW5nZS1zY3JlZW4tYWZ0ZXItY2FydC1pcy1lbXB0aWVkP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[jonblk](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile")** - [![jonblk's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/9766-jonblk) Less More - Posts: 25 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 2 weeks ago [\#72667](#72667) by [jonblk](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile") Replied by *[jonblk](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Change Screen After Cart Is Emptied](/forum/4-how-to/71693-change-screen-after-cart-is-emptied#72667 "Good Day, After i delete the last item in my shopping cart, the screen changes and a message at the top reads 'The cart is empty' and all my products with their corresponding prices are displayed in the main area of the window.

However there is some other module I believe which is still running on this bottom of this page. Even though my products are not being displayed I can see the words "Display # 20" and "Results 1 - 3 of 3" at the bottom. I would like these words removed from the page. How can I do this? Also if I do a simple echo "Hello World"; in the product/listing_img_title file "Hello World" is being displayed three times to reflect the number of products I have created. I would like this to stop. How can I make it stop appearing this way.

If you want to remove the pagination at the bottom you can add such CSS on your website: .hikashop_products_pagination{display:none;} Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzcxNjkzLWNoYW5nZS1zY3JlZW4tYWZ0ZXItY2FydC1pcy1lbXB0aWVkP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[jonblk](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile")** - [![jonblk's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/9766-jonblk) Less More - Posts: 25 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 2 weeks ago [\#73016](#73016) by [jonblk](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile") Replied by *[jonblk](/forum/user/9766-jonblk "View jonblk's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Change Screen After Cart Is Emptied](/forum/4-how-to/71693-change-screen-after-cart-is-emptied#73016 "Good Day, After i delete the last item in my shopping cart, the screen changes and a message at the top reads 'The cart is empty' and all my products with their corresponding prices are displayed in the main area of the window.

However I still have the problem of three echoes of 'Hello World'. This is what my code looks like: <?php static $alreadyDone = false; if($alreadyDone) return; $alreadyDone = true; echo "Hello World"; ?> I have never used 'static' before so maybe I have used it incorrectly. Please show me how to correct this.

I don't see why you did that but it's doing what you told it to do... Since that's obviously not what you want to do, you should revert your changes. Look, we're not here to teach you how to code in PHP and I already gave you a solution to a problem relate to custom code. That is already outside normal support. Please hire a 3rd party developer so that he can help you develop what you want to achieve.
