What does the home.php file look like? That is the file listed in the path for your category and subcategory code...

What does the products.php file look like? When you click on the category or subcategory link, this is the code that is called in the home.php file:

No, because that means adding a database table, and then a whole new admin screen to enter the information. That what the people who wrote this wanted to do initially and charge me a lot to do it.

It doesnt need to be fancy, just work. And since its custom for one specific site, it doesnt have to be easily changeable.

Essentially, I dont need anything as complex as stuff added into the database. I just want to hardcode some links into a box that looks like it belongs there.

Its actually subverting the original process, to get outside webpages displaying within the shopping cart structure.

For example, the result would allow you to run this forum from within a shopping cart structure and have donation buttons and stuff in the shopping cart showing after the forum box ends, and in the most purchased box.

I do this off my existing site, using the provider feature, but to clone my site for the project I'm on now is too expensive, so I want to "hotwire" the same effect into the cheaper product. The existing site was heavily modified for a different purpose than the one I'm trying to do now. It also had a substantially bigger budget. I was planning to use a clone of the existing site, but the license fee is too big for the budget. Sad

I will still need to see the products.php file. I can tell you how to strip the functionality that populates the categories and subcategories and hardcode your own links. But you would probably lose the dynamics of the page without understanding how it works. Hopefully the answer in how this code functions is in the products.php file...

I imagine that you could change the logic to use javascript too. I am not a javascript expert though so it may be a challenge figuring out how to get the javascript code to work the way it does now...

How big is the entire program? Could you provide an archive of all of the program files? The next file I need to look at is the search.php file and who knows where that will lead. So if I had all the code, I wouldn't have to keep requesting files from you...

This program includes something called Smarty, which is included in another program that I've looked at recently. I never did figure out how to follow the Smarty code...
