I suffered with a issue in magento 1.8.1.0 that i saved design 'default' for website and also set setting as website for its Store. but when i saw in category detail page , where all product of that category shown has different design from configured design ? so please tell me what the things has to done to rectify this problem. thanks in advance
first of all Please gothrough with below,That's how magento theme fall back works,
your pkg> your theme
your pkg > default theme ( you can set default theme at backend)
your pckg > default
base > default
Also, Please clear magento cache before you check anything.
I got this error , because of i added a design in system -> design and i add an entry for my website is instead of 'default' to another theme , thats why i got category and other page was come with a deferent category. because these setting has the highest priority in design selection for magento. thanks for you comments.

I'm working in Magento 1.7, I've created multi site following this tutorial: http://www.crucialwebhost.com/kb/how-to-setup-multiple-magento-stores/ . I'm using 02 themes with both a slider. In default store, theme works well, but in the second store, slider could not be displayed and also product's thumbnails. The 02 websites use the same root catalog (I don't know if it's recommanded). I don't understand why this problem appears. Could you please make help.
Thanks in advance
Best regards !
For using different themes on multi website or multistore, you must prepare the template on the different folder on root/skin/frontend/your-store-name
After that, you can assign the skin on the backend system by accessing System > Configuration > Design(tab) and then change the web skin..
So the previous web developer has customized our Magento v1.4.1 site to use a page called main.php... It bypasses everything else that is set by Magento as far as Magento goes.
I have no way contact the previous developer to ask where this is setup...
We have just installed a new plugin and it has taken over as the homepage.
In Magento Admin > System > Configuration > Web the homepage is set to URL Key "home" ... When I go to that specific page index.php/home, the custom main.php page shows up. Why would a plugin have found it's way to be our homepage?
Thanks! Felt like my previous question didn't give enough details.
"home" is not the normal value, here is what that section should look like:
I want to build a shop using magento, but I will only have 5 products with all the options (size, quantity, colour and so on) on the home page, maybe some on has done something similar and could point me to the right direction?
P.S
I googled :)
Perhaps the easiest way to achieve this is to create a category with those 5 products and set is as the homepage of your webshop. You can find this option under System > Configuration > Web > Default Web URL.
So instead of using the default cms value, use the following value:
catalog/category/view/id/<your_category_id>
The category ID is visible on the category edit page in the admin.
Managing this page is just like you would normally treat your product list / category pages.
try to download the magento and install the demo store....
And u can use http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base this to aswer the basic.
I have a script that is creating a lot of configurable products and their associated simple products.
Everything goes ok and when inspecting the products in the admin section, everything is linked up and looks great.
The problem is that the products are not visible until I manually go to the admin section and save the configurable product - without changing any options - and then each simple product that is associated with it. After each simple product is saved, its option becomes available on the from end for the configurable product.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Solved this by going through the saveAction in the Mage_Adminhtml_Catalog_ProductController.
I wasn't setting the websiteIds correctly so the new products were never getting added to the site correctly.
Magento uses this piece of code to get the correct website:
$product->setWebsiteIds(array(Mage::app()->getStore(true)->getWebsite()->getId()));
Drew's answer above worked for me. For those using the REST API, this option is under extension_attributes like so:
"extension_attributes": {
"website_ids": [1]
}
Where 1 (for me) was the id of the website where I wanted the product to appear.
I am running a store on Magento. For some reason the "Recently Viewed", "Related Items" and "Featured Items" blocks have all disappeared from my site. They where definitely there yesterday so I'm not sure what's happened to them.
Featured Products is an extension I use and show on the home page using:
{{block type="featuredproducts/listing" template="inchoo/block_featured_products_main.phtml"}}
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?
Reindexing my products fixed this.
system > index management
Probably some Blocks that don't render. Check your /var/log/errors.log for clues (1) and remove the module if is giving you problems(2).
This one here is trying to load the Featuredproducts_Block_Listing class. Check if is there and if is not misspelled.
Have you added any custom module to magento related to products like feature products or products on sale, if yes then just make it false from XML file /app/etc/modules/module.xml
and then refresh or delete the cache and try again with front end.
If this will not work then just simply delete all cache, session and logs. and refreh the web page it will work.
Thanks
