[SOLVED] Featured Product Module With different Category

[sanithkumar]

Hi Moderators,

 

Please help to customize some features

My Website Link : http://videolinkindia.com

 

I have duplicated Home featured module and it was success,  i wanted to display products from different categories, now the module showing products only from 'home' category. i have seen many solutions on net by changing code on file homefeatured1.php (which i  renamed for duplication)

 

by changing code

 

$category = new Category(Context::getContext()->shop->getCategory(), (int)Context::getContext()->language->id);

$nb = (int)Configuration::get('HOME_FEATURED_NBR');

$products = $category->getProducts((int)Context::getContext()->language->id, 1, ($nb ? $nb : 8));

 

to

 

$category = new Category(14, (int)Context::getContext()->language->id);

$nb = (int)Configuration::get('HOME_FEATURED_NBR');

$products = $category->getProducts((int)Context::getContext()->language->id, 1, ($nb ? $nb : 8));

 

but in my case its not working. it shows no featured products

 

I have following product categories, Main categories and their sub categories

 

Camera (id 11)

  - DSLR Camera (12)

  - Point and Shoot  (13)

Accessories (14)

  - Lenses (15)

  - Memory Card (16)

 

If required i can provide you the back-end user pass

 

Any help would be appreciated!!

 

Thanks
