intermediadorpopular Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 In version 1 and 2 installed on my PC, it defaults to new arrivals. Not yet installed the final version, but how to change the default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestamax Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) If you go to modules => position and look here for the hook DisplayHomeTabContent you can move the modules and reorder them the way you like.

I've done this however only change the positions and the standard remains news arrivals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestamax Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Could it be cache related? I just tried and if I move the module position the first module appears as default. What happens if you unhook 'new arrivals' in modules => positions and then when 'features products' appears as first re-hook 'new arrivals'?

intermediadorpopular Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 Thank you friends for help, Prestamax's it, now it worked. Now to choose products that are at the top level, only with paid modules, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestamax Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 If you place your product in the home category it should show up as featured product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intermediadorpopular Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 If you place your product in the home category it should show up as featured product. Okay, but how to get the sequence? How to change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestamax Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 You can rearrange the order in the products tab by clicking on "filter by category". Here is a good explanationhttp://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/262441-solved-featured-products-change-the-order/?p=1307930 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingstar Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Could it be cache related? I just tried and if I move the module position the first module appears as default. What happens if you unhook 'new arrivals' in modules => positions and then when 'features products' appears as first re-hook 'new arrivals'? Didn't work for me. Instead (after unhooking 'new products block' from both 'displayHomeTab' and 'displayHomeTabContent' and rehooking them back in place) now both tabs are checked on the homepage, showing both products from Popular tab and products from New Arrivals tab directly underneath. I can't click either of both tabs anymore, if you get what I mean; they are already clicked by default, and showing products from both at the same time. Now because I might choose to 'feature' several new products, it means that the same products will be repeated twice all over the homepage. This is something I don't like. My store hasn't gone live yet, so the bestselling tab isn't visible for lack of repeated sales on a product. Therefore, I cannot really compare or check to know whether it would also be 'checked' when visible, making all three tabs checked by default and causing a product to be repeated as much as three times on the same page, without any distinguishing factor to identify whether this particular group of products are 'New Products' or whether this other particular group is for Featured (or Popular). I tried unhooking the New Products Block from both 'displayHomeTab' and 'displayHomeTabContent' and trasplanting it to 'displayHome', and I got this error notice: "This module cannot be transplanted to this hook." I have been trying to transplant several other modules to new hooks but found it impossible. I don't undestand why Prestashop would place restrictions to a feature that is as handy as the transplant module feature. I have decided to leave the 'New products block' unhooked from the 'displayHomeTab' and 'displayHomeTabContent' as I do not want the same products to be repeated on the homepage without any block titles that distinguishes them. Any help will be appreciated - whether on how to have the products on the homepage as they originally were, with the Popular tab contents showing by default when the page loads; or to have all groups of product showing at once, with block titles separating one group from another (Bestsellers {up}, Popular {below}, New Products {below, last}); or to just transplant the 'new products block' completely away from the tabs to a new position on the same homepage. Looking forward to any helpful response, and thank you for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maghrabi Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hi Kingstar, I had the same problem, check this link and maybe it will work for you as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mani8289 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Hi, By default there is a module to do that. Go to modules and search for "Featured products on the homepage". This will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingstar Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hi Kingstar, I had the same problem, check this link and maybe it will work for you as well. Hi Maghrabi, Thanks a lot for the link. Since the last time I made that post, I have unhooked both "New products block" and "top-sellers block" from DisplayHomeTabs and DisplayHomeTabsContent, leaving only Popular. I just added them again, and, so far, everything looks good! Both newly re-added tabs are currently showing 'no bestsellers' and 'no new products' even though I have recently added new products and there are defined bestsellers, but I'm hoping this is just as a result of the tabs being "new" on that position once again. I'll wait until I add new products (which wouldn't be long from now) and until there are new bestsellers, and then I can be able to confirm if it's fully resolved. I "followed" that thread on that link you sent me, just in case. And it might help to note that I very recently upgraded to the latest 1.6.0.7 version. Thanks a lot for that link. I can't say it's resolved because on both tabs I have: No best sellers at this time.and No new products at this time.But as soon as I have data on the tabs, I'll report back with the results. Thanks a lot once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maghrabi Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hi again, The problem keeps existing even with the solution provided before. It seems to be a temporary solution to unable SEO friendly URL and enable back again. Both new products and populair products are clicked/active by default on the homepage and can't be clicked. changing to best sold makes them clickable again. I believe this is a caching problem, anybody having these same issue and found a solution is welcome to share. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingstar Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 @Maghrabi, following my last update, it worked for me. I suspect it's a caching problem. Web browsers are unpredictable. If you will PM me your website address, I can check how it looks from my end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosie Posy Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Hi Vekia, Thanks for your last reply. I have another question regarding changing the product positions in the popular tab. After draging the products and changing their positions in the product tab in the BO, I still get a higher priced item before the lower priced item on the popular tab http://rosieposy.fr/en/ I have tried clearing the cache as suggested in other posts but no luck. thanks for your advice.

vekia Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 for me products appears not in "price" order it's hard to verify it without knowledge about actual configuration (order) of products in home category Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie Posy Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hi Vekia Thanks for your reply. I am not able to sort the products a I wish. I have dragged the products in the catalog to the order I would like. Front page still does not show the correct sort order. The products in the home tab are https://www.dropbox.com/s/3lzsu76xu0krllz/Screenshot%202014-09-29%2015.35.26.png?dl=0 and the products displayed for the buyer https://www.dropbox.com/s/k3u8hcu8crkw4fd/Screenshot%202014-09-29%2015.30.16.png?dl=0 In the preference products page I have https://www.dropbox.com/s/8gb0dzl98yqs07b/Screenshot%202014-09-29%2015.40.34.png?dl=0 Thanks for your suggestions.

chris0241 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I have this problem too... I've unhooked NEW ARRIVALS but it still shows. I want to see TOP SELLERS (default) or FEATURED (menu option) - FEATURED aren't even an option. I've cleared my cache, can anyone check what shows?
