How do I determine which "modules" a theme requires?


Recommended Posts

Hello

 

Not sure I understand the question but:

 

If it is a Default Prestashop template then all the modules you see can or are being used

 

If you have bought a theme using the Prestashop engine then you will probably find that the developer has added some of his/her own modules, and also disabled some of the default modules to avoid any conflict between the two.

 

If you are not sure asked the developers or just look at the modules in the back office

Hi Paul

 

Thanks for the quick reply.

 

Perhaps I am "over thinking" this.

 

Ok, if I go to "Modules" in the bac koffice does it display all of the modules that are available as part of this installation. It shows if they are installed, disabled etc? Is this correct?

 

It is them up to the individual theme to determine which of the modules it will utilize? I this correct?

 

If a theme wants to use a module that is disabled or not installed etc, then some sort of error will be displayed? Is this correct?

 

What does the "green" vertical highlight around the "checkbox" next to the module mean??? I wanted to upload a screen shot but couldn't see how.

 

Thanks

Regards

Greg

Hello

 

1. Yes, also, the back office will show modules that you can use but have yet to be installed and              configured.

 

2. No, it is up to you to decide which modules you want to use

 

3. The theme will not know about a module if it is not enabled/installed

 

4. Not sure what "Green" highlight you are referring to but, if it's green, it should be ok

Hi Paul

 

Thanks again.

 

I have uploaded a screen shot and included some arrows to the "green highlight" I mentioned.

 

I understand what you are saying.

 

My last question is....if a theme that has been purchased has been designed to utilize specific modules, how do I know this?

 

Regards

Greg
