Hi all,
I'm currently building my site using V8 and am a regular reader of this forum - this is the first time I've not been able to find an answer to a question, so I'm starting my first thread...
My site is going to have 10,000+ products when complete. Whilst making use of Actinic's upselling tools (also bought/related lists), I'd also like a 'random' list of products generated on each page.
I found this which has been very helpful (thanks Norman!)
http://community.actinic.com/showthread.php?t=45325
It works great, but I want to see if it can be taken a step further:
Home page - random list of all products (as per Norman's code)
Section 1 - random list of products from Section 1
Section 2 - random list of products from Section 2
etc etc
My knowledge of php is, shall we say, limited (!) but I do like pulling code apart and experimenting with Actinic's capabilities to try and use it to it's full potential! As I can see it, presumably you'd need to take 'allprods' (as in Norman's code), and then filter it by sectionID? Am I along the right lines? Anyone feel like having a bash at actually translating into php code?
Simon
