My solution to this is to create a category called ‘Featured’ (which I do not put under the root catalogue), then I add in the products which I would like featured on the front page to this category.
Then add this to the CMS ‘home’ page:
{{block type = "catalog/product_list" category_id = "9" template = "catalog/product/list.phtml" }}
(where ‘9’ is the id for the ‘Featured’ category)

Can this be done or not, i.e. display a single product with full discription on the home page of the site.

Hi Yoke Lee,
choose CMS->Manage Pages and then select the page you want to display in 3 columns(ex: like Home page) then in the edit section choose Custom design ant then choose layout there you get see 3 columns select and refresh Home page.

Hi shan_84 !
Thank you very much ! I didn’t notice that !
@Shimi : Try this :
Step 2
Step 3 : try this on CMS > Homepage content area:
< h1 > Home page </ h1 > {{block type = "catalog/product_list" category_id = "27" template = "catalog/product/list.phtml" }}
where “27” is the your Books category.
Hope this helps !

@ Yoke Lee, that is what I have, but I don’t want to show product list instead the whole product.

Ow, you mean you only have one product to sell ?
and by the time the homepage loads, it directly loads the page with one product and it’s whole detail?
is that what you mean ?
