James, Also did you enter text in for the page title text for each page? That's what I think were seeing and getting confused. Just a thought.;)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Eric, Under Shop Home, Pages, I have checked "Don't Show Anything."
In some cases I did not enter text for the page title text. In fact I entered a "space" so that nothing would show up in that space.

Eric and Bren,
For the moment, there are two sites, one created with VSD (whitehatbooks.com) and one created with SCC/SDC-Pro (whitehatbooks.com/shop). At first I had wanted to embed the SCC site as an iframe in the VSD site. That did not work. Then I sought to replicate the VSD site in SCC. That is where I am now. Of course, I only need one of these sites so eventually, I will eliminate the VSD site and use only the SCC site if I can figure out a way to have a visitor to whitehatbooks.com land there. I think I will have to delete the VSD site and place all the content of the SCC site in the public folder of whitehatbooks.com. Then I will rename home.php and index.php to index.php and home.php respectively. That way first time visitors will land on the tab that I have named "White Hat Books" (the one SSD calls "home."

Make sense? I know using the SCC site will limit expansion possibilities for the site but I may have to settle for that right now.

I hope you know how much I appreciate people taking time to look at this and wade through what must seem like a pretty confused request for help. Thanks.

James,
What do you have checked for (Homepage) Optional under "Your Shop" then "Pages" tab?


Look at the bottom of that window. That's what I'm referencing to.
(Homepage) Optional

Under "Homepage (Optional)" I checked "Use Pages tool and enter my own content."

That's what I was thinking. So there's some confusion because your entering your own content and entering a title text.
Did you see this post? I bet it will do what you need.;)

Hello James Lee,

I changed the Shop Home to Information.
Changed the Home page to Welcome.

Now when a client enters my cart it defaults to the Information page. I would like for them to default land on the Home page which is my Welcome page.

By the way, I like your http://whitehatbooks.com/shop/
I had cancer in 2003. That was my new beginning as a photographer/designer!

Coffee Cup Team- will this be an option soon- changing the landing page?
Love those Nikon's!
