I don't like the add to cart button that was added to featured products and categories with this new version. Our products have many details that a customer must look at prior to making the choice of the correct item to purchase. If they just add to cart from the categories or featured pages, they will not have enough information to make the correct choice. How can I remove the add to cart buttons on all pages except the product page itself ?

You can do this with some manual editing.

- Download "includes/stringfunctions.asp"
- Backup the file
- Open in a text editor
- Find text �On Error Resume Next� around line 386
- Directly after "On Error Resume Next" add the following text

pcf_AddToCart=False
Exit Function

- Save the file and upload

This will hide the new buy now buttons. It will also disable the �Qty� input boxes in the "multiple add-to-cart" layout.

Making this a Control Panel option is something I will add to our development �Wish List�. In the meantime, keep in mind you would have to redo this edit anytime you install an update.

Thank you for the reply. I realized after upgrading that this would be a problem for us and I'm really glad to know a way to fix it.
