Open first subcategory by clicking on parent category

[jwich71]

Hello,

 

I'm searching for an option to automatically open the first subcategory in front office, when clicking on the parent category. But I didn't find any option in the module "blockcategories".

 

I need this option, because my parent categories are empty, and so the customer should automatically forwarded to the first subcategory.

 

I think this behavior could useful for many webshops.

 

 

I use Prestashop 1.5.6.2

 

Can someone help?

 

Greetings

Hi, in your module blockcatwgories, you can modify category-tree-branch.tpl :

 

replace

<a href="{$node.link|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" {if isset($currentCategoryId) && $node.id == $currentCategoryId}class="selected"{/if} title="{$node.desc|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}">{$node.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</a>

by

<a href="{if $node.id == 1}link_to_your_category{else}{$node.link|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}{/if}" {if isset($currentCategoryId) && $node.id == $currentCategoryId}class="selected"{/if} title="{$node.desc|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}">{$node.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</a>
