When main.swf is loaded is the only time you see "HOME" (WELCOME). Once one of the sections is selected from the menubar, there's no going back "home". I'm thinking, (as I've seen in the past working with other swishsites) that the logo (upper left hand section of main) should have action script logic to "take me home". Can someone take me home please?

Thank you,

...looks like there is a little bug in the scripting - easy to fix - open "main.swi" and highlight the sprite "Control" in the "Outline" panel, then go to the scripting panel, and at the second variable, change "var cMenu = 0;" to "var cMenu = 1;"

How would you set the first menu item to home?

- you don't - this would mean you have to re-script the entire template...btw, it takes a professional designer about 100 hours to put one of these together.

..just an after thought - why don't you take the content of your "first menu" and place it on the "Home" section?

I am having the exact same problem. I bought the template and as soon as I tried it I was never able to click the logo and return to the home page. There is probably a bug in this thing, can you please explain exactly where I need to go in the script to be able to clcik the logo and return home? Please be a little more clear because I did not understand your explanation below. Thanks

...what's there not to understand? - can't make it any clearer - you open "main.swi", go to the "Outline" panel, select the MovieClip "Control" and then go to the "Script" panel and change the value from "0" to "1".

I guess my confusion comes because my template did not have the control movieclip in the first place, thats why I don't see what you are talking about. Is there anything else I can do to active the logo so it can take me back home? Thanks

...if you open the correct swi - "main.swi" - it has.

Thank you so much for your quick response. I guess I accidentally deleted the control movie when I changed the logo. Is there any way that I can import the control movie back into the main.swi so I can get the logo button to work? Sorry to bother you so many times, and thanks in advance.

...you have to go to "mySWiSHzone.com" and log in with your registered email and password and download another copy of that template.

Here I am again, I downloaded a brand new copy of the vinyl template, I opened the main.swi and surprise there is no movieclip named "Control" so in the first place I was correct I never deleted the "Control" movieclip. The example template at swishzone.com of vinyl has the logo button not working either. Everything else works in the example template except for the logo which does not take you to the home page. So once again how do I make the logo take me to the home page? Please don't advise me to go to the "control" movieclip because there is no such movieclip in the template. Please help!
