After Update from 1.4.4.0 to 1.5.6.1: $HOOK_TOP doesn't output anything

[K-G]

Hi,

 

I've updated a shop from 1.4.4.0 to the latest version 1.5.6.1. A custom theme is being used.

In my header.tpl there's the call {$HOOK_TOP}, which printed login/logout and language links. But in the current version there's no output of this hook.

 

Did something change in $HOOK_TOP? Or do I have to activate something in the backend?

 

Best Regards

hello

 

can you please verify modules > positions tab in your back office?

there is a list of modules attached to certain hooks.

 

search for "displayTop" modules list (not displayHeader!)

have you got modules there?

Hi,

 

the module is installed, activated and in the correct position (see attachments).

The code snippet in the header.tpl:

<div id="header_right">
{$HOOK_TOP}
</div>

The output in the Browser:

<div id="header_right">
</div>

I even tried it with {$displayTop}, {$HOOK_displayTop} and {$hook_displayTop}. No output.

I disabled the Smarty Cache.

ok, so with hooks configuration everytihng looks well.

problem is somewhere else, for example in frontController (classes/controllers/) which doesn't create hook_top variable.

can you show contents of this file ?

[Sharak]

Show modules you have hooked to displayHeader on Module positions page.

[vekia]

well, even without displayHeader css / js files displayTop should output some code to display.

for now, there is no code :/ so i suppose that controller doesn't include hook_top variable (or it contents) properly

[Sharak]

Probably you're right but I noticed that most modules besides their proper hook are also attached to hook displayHeader. If this hook is empty in K-G's shop then maybe displayTop (which is in the header, isn't it?) doesn't load any modules either.
