First let me say THANK YOU for making the ECWID extention, after searching for a million store plugins, this one is PERFECTO!
I have a question that cannot be answered by ECWID as it is a question more focused on how you guys set up the extention...
I want to remove the categories from the main page, this is the reason.
I have added a module in Joomla to sit at the TOP of the store, it is a picture navigation of the different catgories for easy navigating. Only problem is, if I add the module, it will show up on the front page of the store too, making the categories redundant...
see the link... http://korvadesign.com/index.php?option=com_rokecwid&view=ecwid&Itemid=58
then if you click on the Pendants Catgory, you will see that the Shop Menu I do want is there. I just dont want the redundancy on the front page.
So, is there any way to have the front page of the ECWID store blank? Or just remove the categories from the front page?
I found this link http://kb.ecwid.com/w/page/15853258/Default-category-for-product-browser
which looks like the answer, the only thing is, I dont know WHERE or WHAT FILE to edit this in? using RokEcwid for Joomla 1.5. This solution is more talking about how to edit the HTML widget code for HTML sites, no instructions on using RokEcwid.
Any help? THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In your menu-item you can define the id of the Default Category. When opening that menu item it will automatically load that category you chose instead of the 'root' of the shop.
It's following exactly that ecwid page instructions you have linked, by passing to ecwid the defaultCategoryId. Unforunately there isn't a way to have it 'blank' but just load a specific category that can then change based on your top navigation for the categories. - / Djamil Legato / Lead Developer /

YES YES that is what I want to do. LOL, but you can't for 1.6 right?
Darn those 1.6ers

We have to wait a week?
I have so much work to do this weekend. May we please have a file change so we can at least move forward with production.

You can edit components/com_rokecwid/views/ecwid/tmpl/default.php and at line 7 change from:
$params = JComponentHelper::getParams( 'com_rokecwid' );
to:
$app = &JFactory::getApplication(); $params = &$app->getParams();
