Hi

Depends on what you want to do.

You could have a look in: /core-private/apps/ecom/ECOM/includes/catshow.php
and adjust to suit or within each category ( System Dashboard > Store > Catalog > Categories ), have a look at the Display and select the relevant entry from Sub-Category Display Type.

Hope this make sense.

Use Raw DB Admin to add a new column to the ecom_cat table.  Use the id 'customcatcontrol' (or whatever).  Set it as a integer type, with a length of 1 and make it required.  Add an appropriate name and description to it.  After adding, execute this SQL in Raw DB Admin:

UPDATE core_columndefs SET cinsdisplaytype='SELECT-BOOL', cinsdefaultvalue=0, cupddisplaytype='SELECT-BOOL' WHERE cid='ecom_cat.customcatcontrol'

From there, go into Manage Categories and set the value for your new field to true (1) for any of these special categories.  You'll have a true/false dropdown there for the new field.

Once you're done setting up the database and data, edit {private}/apps/ecom/ECOM/includes/catshow.php file and the data will be available as the $catshow['customcatcontrol'] field.  0 for off, 1 for on, write an if statement as appropriate to do what you want.

Thanks, Terry.  I've updated my post
