The easiest way is to edit the /modules/blockcategories/blockcategories.tpl file.

 

1.create a module directory in your themes folder

 

/themes/mytheme/modules/

 

 

2. copy the blockcategories module there and edit the blockcategories.tpl file

 

3. Insert the link to the product page e.g.

 

<li><a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/product.php?id_product=12">T shirt designer</a></li>

 

before </ul> as shown below.

 

<!-- Block categories module -->
<div id="categories_block_left" class="block">
<h4>{l s='Categories' mod='blockcategories'}</h4>
<div class="block_content">
 <ul class="tree {if $isDhtml}dhtml{/if}">
 {foreach from=$blockCategTree.children item=child name=blockCategTree}
  {if $smarty.foreach.blockCategTree.last}
{include file="$branche_tpl_path" node=$child last='true'}
  {else}
{include file="$branche_tpl_path" node=$child}
  {/if}
 {/foreach}

<li><a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/product.php?id_product=12">T shirt designer</a></li>

</ul>
 {* Javascript moved here to fix bug #PSCFI-151 *}
 <script type="text/javascript">
 // <![CDATA[
  // we hide the tree only if JavaScript is activated
  $('div#categories_block_left ul.dhtml').hide();
 // ]]>
 </script>
</div>
</div>
<!-- /Block categories module -->

move it up the

 

<ul class="tree {if $isDhtml}dhtml{/if}">
<li><a href="http://www.yourdomain.com/product.php?id_product=12">T shirt designer</a></li>

 

if you have the module folder in the theme directory it won't be overwritten when your upgrading your presta version.

Hi, I have a question about links in category text. I want for example link in text : " This is a red car." and CAR is а link for another page, RED for another ....

I use < a href="" > CAR </a> in admine panel, but in client panel is like : " This is a red < a href=""> CAR.

I want many links for do SEO and page rank not only one. In products this is easy but in category i don't know how to do it.

The site is sikera-bs.com but it is in Bulgarian and I don't know do you understand something.

 

Sorry for errors but I can't write very well in english.
