Hook New Products Block to displayHome

[Ben90]

Hi guys,

 

Just a quick question, I would like to move New Products Block to displayHome (Homepage content) but this notification appeared when I try to do it: This module cannot be transplanted to this hook

 

Is there any way to do this? I just simply want to move this "new arrival products" to appear on the bottom of the homepage content.

 

I thank you in advance for your help

Hi, there's a problem with this new products block module. After I move it down to  displayHome (Homepage content), it last for 1 day, after that it shown "no new products at this time" even though I set the products considered new to 30 days.

 

I need to reset the module to make them appear again, but after I move it to displayHome (Homepage content), it happened again. Maybe there's additional set of code I need to add?

 

I just want to add this new products in the displayHome (Homepage content). So I remove it from another hook (left side bar or anywhere else). Guess this code need to be modified, right?

if ($success)
		{
			// Hook the module either on the left or right column
			$theme = new Theme(Context::getContext()->shop->id_theme);
			if ((!$theme->default_left_column || !$this->registerHook('leftColumn'))
				&& (!$theme->default_right_column || !$this->registerHook('rightColumn')))
			{
				// If there are no colums implemented by the template, throw an error and uninstall the module
				$this->_errors[] = $this->l('This module need to be hooked in a column and your theme does not implement one');
				parent::uninstall();
				return false;
			}
		}

Yeah still the same, unless I left the left column active. But there's no point using both of them on the same page. Put this on displayHome is the best idea. Still not working though...

Maeby need to register another hook or anything else...

 

Best regards.
