Adding, Removing, and Reordering SPECIALS

  • Go to the item page. The SPECIAL button is in the top middle of the EDITING BAR.
  • Click SPECIAL. This will take you to the FRONT PAGE to see how the ITEM looks.

  • To remove an ITEM as a SPECIAL
  • Go to the page. The NOT SPECIAL button is in the top middle of the EDITING BAR.
  • Click NOT SPECIAL. This will take you to the FRONT PAGE
Advanced: Here is a simpler way to remove an ITEM or SECTION as a SPECIAL.
  • Go to the FRONT PAGE.
  • Click EDIT.
  • Scroll down to the SPECIALS field.
  • Highlight the OBJECT-ID of the item or section you no longer want to be a SPECIAL.
  • Hit the SPACE BAR.


You can use the concept to change the order of SPECIALS.

Normally, SPECIALS are on the FRONT PAGE in the order that you select them. The SPECIALS can be seen as a list of OBJECT-IDS separated by spaces in the SPECIALS field when you EDIT the FRONT PAGE in ADVANCED MODE.

To change this order, EDIT the FRONT PAGE. Scroll to the SPECIALS field and change the order of the OBJECT-IDS and hit UPDATE.

So what was ITEM1 ITEM2 ITEM3 becomes ITEM3 ITEM1 ITEM2.
