Featured Products Infobox - Not Showing


Guest

Recommended Posts

I've installed it exactly as the text file states, even went over it again to make sure I didn't miss something. Everything shows up in the admin panel, and after enabling it in the configure file for the catalog, I still don't see anything on the front page.

 

Not sure what to do, it doesn't seem to want to show up. I have the latest snapshot, would that be why it doesn't work? Maybe its not compatible?

 

Is this a known problem?

Futeki San,

 

Been awhile since I installed that one but, if I remember correctly it replaces the New Products box only when there is a featured product. So......Have you "featured" a product? The only other thing I can think of....Did you add the box to one of the columns?

Yup, added some featured products but it still doesn't seem to show anywhere. I haven't added the box to one of the columns though, I thought it would add 'Featured Products' as shown on this site:

See how its right in the center, featuring a number of items. Am I using the wrong thing to do what that site has?

Oooops! Copied the wrong line.......Do you have this?

 

<td><br><?php $new_products_category_id = $current_category_id; include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_FEATURED); ?></td>

 

 

:oops: :oops:

Thanks Kim, that did seem to work.

 

I'm pretty confused now though, I was expecting it to look like that other site I posted. It looks different and now I don't have the 'new for this month' box (which I kinda expected to dissapear anyway).

 

Eck! How to sort all this out...

 

I think I might have to uninstall it and start again :). Don't suppose you know what mod that other site is using? I like the idea of featuring products on the front page as well as 'new for this month' listings.
