Best Answer
To put a particular message on the selected category page, follow below apporach:
1) Create a static block with your message ie: "Coming Soon"
2) Goto to the Category on which you need to display the message
3) Goto Display Settings tab and select Display Mode = "Static Blocks Only"
4) Select Static Block which you created and save the settings.
EDIT
In case you want just the blank page without menu, you will have to create a new template file say
categorylanding.phtml
and call it in the design tab. Follow below procedure to do so.1) Goto app/design/frontend/Yourtheme/template/page and create a new file named
categorylanding.phtml
(Create a copy ofempty.phtml
)2) Enter all the required elements from other layout files.
3) Goto Category>>Custom Design>>Custom Layout Updates
4) Add below XML code to call the template file.
