other products in the same category

[arthurganem]

in the module other products in same category it displays 4 items, i really need it to be 6 items to fit my theme better. Ive been trying to figure this out for a week now and in a dead end. If any one have any idea please reply,

 

thank you in advance.

you can open the modules/productscategory/productscategory.php, and in this line you have the limit

 

$categoryProducts = $category->getProducts((int)($cookie->id_lang), 1, 100); /* 100 products max. */

 

but if you dont have more tan 4 products in same category, you cant show more

i actually had mine set to 10000, and i have more then 4 products. i think this is somehow controlled by my template

 

$categoryProducts = $category->getProducts((int)($cookie->id_lang), 1, 10000); // 10000 products max.

check if you have a custom module in themes/yourtheme/modules/productscategory

[arthurganem]

I like the 30 other products in the same category module but doesnt know what is the sorting order of products in that module..I want it to be showing the latest products first but it picks random products. My default product listing is "Position in category" and the products show perfectly ordered by date when category is chosen but its just this module which picks 3 random products. How can i make it show the 30 latest products of the same category as the chosen product. Pls help...
