[solved] How to change or edit Permanent links block?

[andreicosmovici]

Hi all,

 

In the Module section, the Permanent links block doesn't have any Configure button. In order, for example, to change the link of the Contact Us page to a CMS page. Or, in order to add or delete links, like Sitemap link (which I don't need on my website).

 

Any help appreciated, thanks!

Andrei

you have to do this manually in the module .tpl files located in the

 

/modules/blockpermanentlinks/blockpermanentlinks-header.tpl (links in header)

/modules/blockpermanentlinks/blockpermanentlinks-footer.tpl (links in footer)

/modules/blockpermanentlinks/blockpermanentlinks.tpl (links column, left or right)

[andreicosmovici]

In the /modules/blockpermanentlinks/blockpermanentlinks-header.tpl file, I commented the following line,

 

<li id="header_link_sitemap"><a href="{$link->getPageLink('sitemap')}" title="{l s='sitemap' mod='blockpermanentlinks'}">{l s='sitemap' mod='blockpermanentlinks'}</a></li>

 

with the following signs, <!-- -->,

 

and the sitemap didn't disapeared, ufortunately. Did I something wrong?

if you've got: themes/YOUR_THEME/modules/blockpermanentlinks directory with files - you need to append changes there.

 

turn also force compile on in your prestashop and refresh your front page.

 

its better to use {* *} this as comment method

Hi Vekia,

 

I append changes on this file:

public_html/themes/warehouse/modules/blockpermanentlinks/blockpermanentlinks-header.tpl,

where warehouse is my active template. Unfortunately, nothing changes.

 

I also turned on force compile. What else could be?

Anyway, how could I change the default contact link, to link to another cms?

you can try to clear cache manually:

 

cache/smarty/cache/

cache/smarty/compile/

Vekia, thanks a lot. Problem solved only now, after manualy cache clear, from

 

cache/smarty/cache/

cache/smarty/compile/.

 

Now, hope there won't be too difficult to add other links to the permanent link blocks. Would be excellent if future releases of PrestaShop will include permanent block link handle directly from within the back office, for easier and quicker modification.

 

Thanks again!

you've got right, this module should have own configuration menu.

im going to mark this thread as [solved]

 

regards!
