I am looking at a friend's Magento setup and I have never used Magento until recently.
I am trying to change a product listing that has a bug. Here is the link to the products: http://shop.crystalvine.com/salt.html
They are mostly ok, but if you click on "Tart Cherry Salt" it takes you to a url like this: http://shop.crystalvine.com/salt/white-zinfandel.html which is named zinfindel.
How do I do it so that it takes the user to the url for the cherry salt?
I am in the Magento console and I clicked on the catalog pane, and went under categories and found the listing of products. But I don't see how to edit the link from the salt.html page.
Any idea how to make that change?
It seems to be working fine, clicking on "Tart Cherry Salt" took me to:
http://shop.crystalvine.com/salt/tart-cherry-salt.html
Which is exactly where you want to go.
Perhaps you can refresh your browser cache.
Did you perhaps set a product and then rename it?
Did you duplicate a product to create "Tart Cherry Salt" or did you create that product from scratch?

I'm a brand-new Magento developer, coming from more general web-dev.
What I'm trying to do is create a "Kiosk Mode" of a website to be displayed within an app. Kiosk mode is a stripped-down version of my existing Magento site for BROWSING only; no customer login, no cart. Don't show "Add to Cart" stuff on product pages, etc. I want the site to draw from my existing product catalogue. My site currently has three store-views, representing three different physical locations with different inventory (business is mainly local pickup).
From what I'm reading it seems like a Theme is the way to go here, but I've got a couple of questions:
1) Can I drive theme from referral URL? I've looked at this page, but the answer seems shaky and I don't want to dive in to the codebase on spec if I can help it:
Change magento theme/storeview based on referring URL?
2) Does everything I'm describing above seem possible using Magento themes? Can I hide cart, change product page layout to remove "Add to Cart", etc?
Many thanks in advance!

Hey im just looking for some advice, my project is to create a website on magento without the price option. This means no shopping basket either but just the option for users to view all the products without having the option to buy it online. Its important that i still keep the feature of selling online for the future but if it was possible to just disable it all.
Id love for some insight onto what people think the best option is for me to do.
You should do three things:
Remove all inclusions for the prices from your theme (just comment them out)
Remove the button in the addtocart.phtml files
Disable onepage checkout via the backend
It is the first time I use Magento. I have installed Magento with a custom theme. When I add category and product from dashboard, they doesn't show up on the website, just a blank content (header, sidebar and footer works fine, more precisely you can see it at here)
I found the added product from sitemap with css gone. What might be the reason for this? Why categories and content doesn't appear on the website? Why css is broken on the product page?
Magento is designed to be as efficient as possible and the learning curve can initally be daunting to people encountering it for the first time. A couple things to try:
Make sure that the category you've created, found in Catalog > Categories > Manage Categories, the option "Include in Navigation Menu" set to yes (this should automatically "create" the navigation bar for you)
In the admin section of your site, navigate to System > Index Management and select all and reindex them all
In the admin section, navigate to System > Cache Management and flush the cache
The last two steps, when developing your site, are sometimes necessary to see the most up to date information on your Magento install. Something which may make your life easier is in the Cache Management page, select all of the cache types and choose to disable them for now. You'll want to re-enable them once you make the site live.
In Magento I took and duplicated a theme and made a few changes to the second one. Called it recipes, removed the price, etc. All worked out fine except! When I add a related product it shows up and says "other featured products". This is what the old theme said.
After some research i am seeing it is pulling this file from the "app/design/frontend/base/template/catalog/product/list folder instead of the theme folder ?

Turn on template/path hints in your administration area:
System -> Config / Advanced -> Developer
This will show you exactly which template and block it belongs to. The product list template you are referring to just renders the products, it's possible the theme does not also include the header in that file.
Alternatively, a quick grep (or search via IDE if you are on Windows) for 'Other Featured Products' is a good solution, since that should be a fairly unique string.
I've simple products in my magento store with custom options that have different prices. Upon selecting one of the given options e.g size, the total price doesn't change and stay the same. However if items purchased in shopping cart it shows correct price (base price+additional amount) I presume there's some javascript issue in my custom theme as when i changed the template to default it started to work normal. Any ideas what could be the possible issue and where should i be looking to sort this issue out.
Sounds more like a standard JavaScript error than something related directly to Magento. If I had to guess at random I'd say your theme is using jQuery (or another alternative), that is clashing with Prototype as it's not being ran in safe mode. To debug this, open up your site in a copy of FireFox with the web developer toolbar extension installed. In the top right hand corner of the page there are three circular icons. If the far right one is a red cross, there is a JavaScript error, clicking on the icon will tell you what the error is.
