[SOLVED] How can i freely editing modules?

[Skapamento]

Hi all,

 

i am working on developing a website based on Prestshop. and i need to know how can i edit and optimize any module i need and placing it any where i need.

 

as example:

- moving tags block to header with the search form?

- top horizontal menu?

- cart block?

 

the designer's and developer's guide that prestshop placed is very helpful, but it's doesn't meets my needs?

this is my simple link: http://www.ibnqym.com/home/

 

thanks

if you want to change position of module (move it from for example left to right column) you need to use "transplant" feature located in modules -> position tab in your prestashop back office. In some cases you must also change html code of module + css stylesheet of it, because without changes module may looks weirdy in new places.

may be i have a problem with this way!

because i can't edit it never because it's muted !

can i make it by editing php files or writing a short hook tag code?

great thanks vekia

[vekia]

weirdy :/

 

you can but it isnt as simple as it seems, it's better to figure out why transplant doesnt work than to "rewrite" php source of modules ;-)

 

which prestashop version you use? I see that 1.4, but which exactly? latest one? 1.4.10 ?

btw. you use "transplant" feature or you editing module on list?

This module can't be transplanted to this hook.

may be it's the CHMOOD perimsions for files and folders?

Like Vekia said you must do some changes to php files.

 

Check this post for example http://www.prestashop.com/forums/index.php?/topic/51846-solvedhow-to-transplant-modules-in-the-left-or-right-column-into-center-column-in-the-homepage/page__view__findpost__p__336881

If your issue in this topic is solved you should edit topic title in your first post, in full text editor and add [sOLVED] in front.

Also for your other issue you should make a new topic, but here is an answer.

$menu HTML you edit in blocktopmenu.php, function makeMenu(). And for example for categories you add code to

function getCategory,

 if (!empty($is_intersected))
 {
  $this->_menu .= '<li '.$selected.'>';
  $this->_menu .= '<a href="'.$category_link.'">'.$category->name.'</a>';
  if (count($children))
  {
   $this->_menu .= '<ul>';
   foreach ($children as $child)
 $this->getCategory((int)$child['id_category'], (int)$id_lang, (int)$child['id_shop']);
   $this->_menu .= '</ul>';
  }
  $this->_menu .= '</li>';
 }

thanks for information that you solved your issue exactly as razaro said, is better to create new thread with new questions if it is not related to the main case in topic
