[SOLVED]Confusion: Categories page & Home page?

[bruce-rez]

In Home page when I click on Categories tab I am directed to a page with iPods, Accessories and Laptop images. Logically I am supposed to be directed to the Categories page BUT in the top of the page it says:
Home >
HOME There are no products.
Subcategories

So what this page is? Home page or Categories page?
Basically the Home page (index) is the first page when the store is open in the Browser.
I am confused. Either I misunderstood the logic of navigation in the Prestashop or there should be another reason that I ignore.
I'd appreciate any explanation or clarification. (please see the screen shot)

It's the "Home" category, not the homepage, so I suppose the breadcrumb should read Home > Home, but that would look weird, unless you edited your database and changed the name of category 1 from "Home" to something else.

Rocky,
First, Happy New Year.

It’s the “Home” category, not the homepage, so I suppose the breadcrumb should read Home > Home,

How can I modify the breadcrumb to read Home >Categories instead of Home > Home?

, unless you edited your database and changed the name of category 1 from “Home” to something else.

Sorry I didn't understand your point. I don't have the words "category1" and "Home" in my database.
Can you elaborate more please?
Thanks.

It's in the ps_category_lang table. Change the name from "Home" to "Categories".

It worked. Thanks.
Now I have another question.
In Front Office:
it displays "Categories: There are no products." even though there are 3 categories iPods, Accessories and Laptops.
In Back Office:
It displays: "4 products" in category "Categories".
Which information is correct, in Back Office or in Front Office? Can we consider that there products in Category?
Actually I am confused with this file management or utilization of these vocabulary Category, Subcategory and Home.
I hope that make sense.
(please see screen shots)
Thanks.

I don't think the PrestaShop team ever really intended the "Home" category to be displayed, which is why it doesn't display like other categories. I suggest that you change lines 5-15 of category.tpl in your theme's directory from:

{strip}
   {$category->name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}

       {if $nb_products == 0}{l s='There are no products.'}
       {else}
           {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='There is'}{else}{l s='There are'}{/if} 
           {$nb_products} 
           {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='product.'}{else}{l s='products.'}{/if}
       {/if}
{/strip}

to:

{strip}
   {$category->name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}
   {if $smarty.get.id_category > 1}
       {if $nb_products == 0}{l s='There are no products.'}
       {else}
           {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='There is'}{else}{l s='There are'}{/if} 
           {$nb_products} 
           {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='product.'}{else}{l s='products.'}{/if}
       {/if}
{/if}{/strip}

This should hide the "There are no products" text on the home category.
