public function hookActionValidateOrder($params){

print_r($params);die();

}

Hi 

you can follow below steps to debug that 

1) verify hook was Registered properly from back office in Design > Positions tab 

when you search the hook you registered by checking display non positionable hooks, it will show your module in list and order too 

see screenshot 1

2) Rather than making die make a log and see that data, the data at hook contains 

cart ,order ,customer , currency and status data 

as in screenshot 2

3) enable debug mode

Hi ,

for step 1: my module is hooked in the header now how to change its position because I just displayhook in the tanspalnt module this is the list of my hooks that I need

if (

! parent :: install () ||

! $ this-> registerHook ('actionFrontControllerSetMedia') ||

! $ this-> registerHook ('hookHeader') || // used to link  js and  css in header

! $ this-> registerHook ('actionValidateOrder') ||

! Configuration :: updateValue ('NS_MONMODULE_PAGENAME', 'Mentions légales')

)

 

I also need to reinstall the module to see the changes of the hooks?
