Modifying Categories Footer

[Naldinho]

*I am very new at this. I used to know how to program but that was 20 years ago.so if this is really simple please forgive me.

 

 

I added multiple categories modules to my shop -- 4 for now but might increase to 5 or 6.

 

I don't want to have 4 columns in the footer for each category.

 

I figured I would be able to edit one of the blockcategories_footer.tpl to have it display all categories and then I would only display that.

 

I have been playing with it and I have a question.

 

1) The list of categories is that generated from the database in blockcategories_footer.tpl or blockcategories.php and then passed as an variable / array to blockcategories_footer.tpl?

 

2) If the latter what is the name of the variable / array?

 

 

I realize that is really noobish but it would help me figure out the code if I knew where the list was generated.

in the blockategories.php file you've got functions for handle the hooks:

1. hookLeftColumn
   
2. hookFooter
   

 

now you can use the same code as you have in the hookLeftColumn, in the hookFooter function.

Just rempace the code
