Hello everyone,

 

I'm fairly new to prestashop so I'm sorry if this question sounds a bit silly.

 

I've been trying to update my product-list.tpl file for the past two hours, but it just doesn't work. The thing is I wanted to add a "SOLD" ribbon to the items that are out of stock. I actually saw another post teaching me how to achieve that here, and I tried that one out hoping it would work. But the thing is after I finished updating my product-list.tpl file and uploaded to my server, everything remains unchanged.

 

At first I thought it was because I did not follow the instructions. But later I changed some existing features in the file just trying to know if it's really updated. The answer is no! I'm so frustrated now and I dont know why it doesn't come to effect after I upload it to the same folder.

 

Also, I did make sure that I was updating the product-list.tpl file inside of the theme I picked for my prestashop. And I'm using prestashop1.5.6.2.

 

Can anybody please help me?? I would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out!! Thank you very much!

if smarty cache set to 'never compile template files' then changed .tpls will not be seen.  this is fastest ps setting but it can have the affect you described.

 

 

let us know if that is not the case

Hi El,

 

Thank you so much for your reply!!! I checked my smarty setting but it is set to "Recompile templates if the files has been updated". So I don't think it's smarty cache problem. Any other suggestions? Please help me! :unsure:

note that this option not always works well.

turn FORCE COMPILE and TURN OFF CACHE

then try again.

Hi Vekia,

 

Thank you for your help. I tried your suggestion but it doesnt work either. Would you please take a look at my code?

 

I saw your post here(http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/249939-solved-display-sold-ribbon-over-the-product-image-when-item-no-longer-available/) on how to add a "SOLD" ribbon on items that are sold out. But it doesnt work. I'm not sure if it's because I did not put the if statement at the right place or there's something wrong with my site. But one thing strange enough is that even though I delete the product_list.tpl file from my server the site still works as normal, which is rather strange! 

 

Here's the link to my site(http://www.meteor.com.hk/shop/en/), and here's the product_list.tpl file:

then make sure you are changing the correct file. themes/yourtheme/product-list.tpl file.

 

there is nothing wrong with smarty cache, if there was all hell would break out.  :)

 

please make sure to post the path to the file because that is the only logical reason...or put something incorrect in file and make the page blank to see if executing.

Thanks El Patron for your reply!

 

yes, am sure, file was correct: /themes/my_theme/product_list.tpl
 

Somehow, i really don't know how, my changes bacame visible. After repeatedly cleaning browsers cache, setting "always compile" and turning cache off, i think that clearing cache made a difference.

If I am right, it's pretty stupid that you have to hit "clear cache" in prestashop even after you set cache off. 
 

Thanks for your help!! I will not set this topic as solved, becouse original problem posted by billieluxu has not been solved. Also, sorry for any language mistakes :)
