Magento

I have 2 pages that I’m trying to create in the CMS and I’m not sure how to do it or if its possible.

One of them I’d like is a “Sale” page.  This would display all products that are currently on Sale.  Ideally, I think it would grab every product that has a “Special Price” and is between the “Special Price From Date” and “Special Price To Date”.

The other is a page that shows every designer in my “designer” attribute.  Just a long list of them, and when you click on one it takes you to a page that lists all that deisgners’ products.

Can this be done?

Follow up to my own question: I was able to sort of figure out how to create a “Sale” page.  I duplicated the New.php file, named it Sale.php, and modified the code to get it to pull products within the special price dates instead of the new dates.  And have included it in my CMS page using this code:

What I’d like to do now is get it to use list.phtml instead of new.phtml, as new.phtml is not formatted correctly at all and list.phtml is perfect.  Is this possible?  When I switch “new.phtml” to “list.phtml”, it just comes up with no products.

Also still curious about how to get a page with all my designers.

Thanks!

I am looking to do the same thing. I want to have a CMS page that lists all the Sale products on a page, a New Releases on a page, and I’d also like to create a list of manufacturers that when clicked displays all the products by that manufacturer.  I’d like all these products to display in the grid format.  If I figure any of these out I will post it here.
