Targetting one category page to hide 'There are no products'

[sarah3585]

Hi,

I have a shopping tab that links to all main categories so you can then drill down to the products within that category.
I've achieved this by linking to /category.php?id_category=1

The issue I have is that it displays 'There are no products' as there aren't, but it gives the wrong impression. The title of the page is Home and the breadcrumbs show Home > Home. I want to hide these items for this page but I want to have them on other category pages.

So basicly i'm asking if there is a way to target these items just for this category page within the category.tpl page?

Change lines 7-14 of category.tpl (in PrestaShop v1.3.2) from:

   {if $nb_products == 0}{l s='There are no products.'}
   {else}
       {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='There is'}{else}{l s='There are'}{/if} 
       {$nb_products} 
       {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='product.'}{else}{l s='products.'}{/if}
   {/if}
{/strip}

to:

{if $smarty.get.id_category != 1}
   {if $nb_products == 0}{l s='There are no products.'}
   {else}
       {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='There is'}{else}{l s='There are'}{/if} 
       {$nb_products} 
       {if $nb_products == 1}{l s='product.'}{else}{l s='products.'}{/if}
   {/if}
{/if}{/strip}

Hi, I have something similar:

there are subcategories full uf products, but when you go to "home" it sayz "there are no products" because the category has only sub categories.
how can I make that dissappear?

thanks!

Did you try my code above? It hides the "There are no products" message on the "Home" category. You can instead {* comment out *} the code if you want the message hidden on all categories.
