4 Home Featured items and 12 Discount items with navigation

[tatygrassini]

I need to include in my HOMEPAGE...

 

- 4 home featured items (as they come in the default theme).

 

- 12 items with discount prices and the sorting-dropdown and the navigation as in the category page.

 

I tried the homefeatured module with a maximum of 4 items and adding the following code at the end of my index.tpl ...

 

{include file="$tpl_dir./price-drop.tpl" products=$products}

 

... but, the 4 items limit from the homefeatured module is limiting the product list from the price drop template to 4 as well.

 

Weird stuff!!! When you visit the price-drop page you see a regular product list with no limits...

 

What am I missing here??
