Edit $HOOK_HOME

[rom56]

Hi :) ,

 

I'm currently editing my prestashop template. I tried to edit the header.tpl but I was suprised to find a variable called "$HOOK_TOP" instead of HTML code.

 

I'm not able to find the definition of this HOOK variable.. Where can I find it and edit it?

 

FYI, I'm looking for that variable to delete some links of my header

 

Many thanks! :)

Hi,

You should not edit the variable directly, since that hook serves for modules to be positioned in the header. Instead, depending on which links you want to delete, you can try editing the various modules' .tpl files. Go to modules -> position. Locate the "top of pages" hook, and see which modules are there. Afterwards, go to a module's folder, copy the tpl file inside your theme's folder /modules/modulename, and edit that directly.

And about modules/positions: http://nemops.com/prestashop-modules/

And lastly, prestashop doc about overriding tpls: http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS15/Overriding+default+behaviors

 

Cheers!

Thank you !

I have pasted HOOK_HOME into header.tpl file.

This results in a undefined index: Hook_home error. Any advice?

[vekia]

hook_home variable is defined for index.tpl file, it's not defined in frontOffice contorller

this is why you've got problems

 

instead of variable, try to use:

 

{Hook::exec('home')}
