Hi everyone. I’m new to Magento and I’m just trying to get a feel of how to manage pages. I have watched the screen casts and read alot of the knowledge base but I’m still a bit confused on how to display products. I’m trying to display products on some landing pages I have created. This is what I know so far and what I’ve created after viewing the screen casts and reading the knowledge base.
After I create a landing page, I create a static block(I’ll be coming back to this), then I create a product and category, add my product to the category and reference the static block I created in the CMS Block drop down(category manager. I’m also using a default custom design and a display mode of static block only). I can then reference my static block on my landing page(page manager content area) with this code- {block type="cms/block" block_id="your_block_identifier" template="cms/content.phtml"}}.
If I don’t have any of that right, please let me know.
So this is where I get lost. I don’t quite understand what coding needs to be added to the static block content area to display my products. Do I need to reference the category in some way?
