Thanks. I'm not good at all with PHP. In most cases things can be commented out and moved around. I just don't know what and where.

Trying to research online is tricky because with all the people asking similar questions because all the versions are often different enough to make it hard to figure out.

Yeah, I had no experience with any similar systems and just chose this. Now its the monster I know. The store pretty much gets ignored and the products never change and its a very specific 100 or so supplements that has its own core customer group from a brick and mortar business, so its not a huge issue.

Recently one thing after another went wrong and being that the old version couldn't be updated to the new version easily, I opted to just create a fresh install and re-add all the products. Sounded like a good idea. Had no idea so much random shit could go wrong.
