[Solved] Changing footer


Recommended Posts

Hi all. I am using 1.3.4 and I am trying to change my footer. I tried to change it via blockvariouslinks/footer.tpl but it don't seemed to change at all. I have searched through the forum but it don't seemed to work for my footer. Any further advice? Thanks :)

Hard to answer without any specifics about what you changed or what you wanted for the result. However, many times when I make a change and it isn't displayed, I follow these steps:

* Clear browser cache
* Clear smarty cache directory (/tools/smarty/cache)
* Clear smarty compile directory (/tools/smarty/compile)
* Open the site on a different browser/machine that hasn't cached the site before

I am only familiar with 1.4x, so I don't know whether smarty cache is used in 1.3x. Also, do you see any change in the footer at all?

I find my footer weird because it doesnt show prestashop and prestasthemes links at all.
Below is the code from gwmmo.com/games/modules/blockvariouslinks/blockvariouslinks.tpl

><!-- MODULE Block various links -->
</pre>
<ul style="text-align:center;">
{l s='Specials' mod='blockvariouslinks'}
{l s='New products' mod='blockvariouslinks'}
{l s='Top sellers' mod='blockvariouslinks'}
{l s='Contact us' mod='blockvariouslinks'}
   {foreach from=$cmslinks item=cmslink}
{$cmslink.meta_title|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}
<!-- /MODULE Block various links -->



The Copyright was done via themes/my theme/footer.tpl

Did all the above but no change.

A novice myself so I don't want to waste your time but I know that when I had that problem, I found that I had two blockvariouslinks/footer.tpl files ... one in prestashop/modules and one in prestashop/themes/mytheme/modules

Could that be the case here?

I did not find any double blockvariouslinks/footer.tpl. Thanks for your help. I'll go upload a new blockvariouslinks. Thanks again :)

ADDED : I just did a new blockvariouslinks.tpl.

I have one question. Is there supposed to be a footer.tpl under blockvariouslinks folder? Thanks.
