I'm creating static pages for my top categories (there are but 5 of them). I want to display all items in all related subcategories right on that page. How?

You'll check off both the main category and sub category within the "Relationships" section of the products you enter.

Well... I'm not sure that's working. These are STATIC pages, built at System Dashboard > Website > Content > Webpages...

Add this to the bottom of your page
$this->include_namespace('ecom','catshow',array('ref'=>'CAT_ID'));

Thanks.

How do I tell it to just display two random items? Or is that too complicated?

Here's the page I'm working:

Nothing in the cart that will do that out of the box, sorry.

Couldn't you achieve this by using categories instead of static pages? You would create a main category (to replace the static page) and link it to other categories. The products that you want to display would be linked to the main category.

I am not sure about randomizing the product display but there is a thread on randomizing the featured products on the splash page. https://forum.kryptronic.com/viewtopic.php?id=25900

In theory. But there are so many limitations with the way categories are and display that I don't want to do it that way.
