texte = By searching the files inside the StoreBuilder folder via BBEdit, I have learned that there are only 6 occurrences of the string staticpages in the entire StoreBuilder folder as follows:generate_page.inc - 3 occurrences generate_qbimport.tpl - 2 occurrences default.tpl - 1 occurrenceThe one occurrence in the default.tpl file appears inside an html tag, so that occurrence is obviously not related to the writing of static pages. And I can only assume that the generate_qbimport.tpl file generates new static pages when importing a QuickBooks file, so that's probably not the place to begin looking either ...So I did another BBEdit search for all occurrences of generate_page.inc in order to locate every file that may have this string in an include tag. There are only 3 occurrences of this string in the entire StoreBuilder folder, and they all occur inside include tags as follows:generate_all.tpl - 1 occurrence results.tpl - 2 occurrencesIn your last message (quoted below) you said these pages are being generated all the time (as new products are being entered). This may suggest that the offending code is in the results.tpl file, or in the code that resides in a file that is included in the results.tpl file.Therefore, I would start looking in the results.tpl file if I were you.But no matter what is actually causing this to happen, someone at SMSI really should know the answer to this question since they are the ones who wrote the StoreBuilder code in the first place. And they really should have described the behavior of StoreBuilder in some kind of documentation ... which of course brings up an important question:Is the behavior of the StoreBuilder documented somewhere, so we can simply LOOK UP THE ANSWER IN THE STOREBUILDER DOCS?Or not? >Hi all, > >Thanks for the many replies. > >To be more clear, the staticpages pages are being generated >automatically and they are being generated all the time (as new >products are entered).
