How to set Catalog Mode in PrestaShop 1.5

There may be a time or reason that you do not want customers to purchase products directly from your site. Maybe a physical store that only provides for a certain area wants to display their products. You can still show the products in a Catalog mode, which is the same as the normal shop, but without the option to purchase and check out directly via the storefront. To set the Catalog Mode in PrestaShop 1.5, simply perform the following steps:
