Turn off Featured products etc across the Zen Cart site

Admin > Configuration > Index Listing
has options to turn off what sub-center boxes appear across the site - eg Featured, New, Upcoming & special products
So its not just for the main home page but it affects all the category pages & product pages too

Proof of Cyber Monday from Google Analytics


I was just checking out some recent stats on Google Analytics for a small e-commerce site - and I was quite surprised to see such a spike on Monday 30th November - so called "Cyber Monday"
You can see the site got more than double the number of hits and then it went back to normal.
See and I thought it was all a marketing ploy!
