Magento

did you check your homepage.phtml on line 51 like the error says?

Looks to me on first glance like you used a variable without the ‘$’ - php tries to interpret them as constants without the dollar sign.

I’ve only copied Homepage.php and hompage.phtml ...
I don’t know what is the problem

As an FYI, on the new version of Magento 1.1.1, the new.phtml / new.php (and in this forum, the homepage.phtml / homepage.php) pages don’t load up product quantities.  isSaleable() always returns NO.  Ideas on how to fix this?

Is there really nobody who knows how to enable a pagination toolbar for the homepage? I used exactly the same code as posted in the first posts but I need a pagination toolbar because we have too many products we would like to show on the frontpage.

I’m having really dificult to understand the block type tags. Is there any wiki or tutorial talking about that subject?

I give my successful code as below:  (can show X products/row * Y row)

1. find app\code\core\Mage\Catalog\Block\Product\New.php
change ‘setPageSize(20)’ such as 20, that is the total products you would show at homepage
2. find app\design\frontend\default\yourtemplate\template\catalog\product\new.phtml
change all the data as my show

3.  add such as {{block type="catalog/product_new" template="catalog/product/new.phtml"}}
That’s all.

Besides, need help
1.  It show ‘Out of store’ alway at homepage.
2. how to add ‘resize’ to reduce the picture weight

Anybody know how to do?
Thanks

I’m unable to get this to work. I added the following code to my CMS home page:

<h1> Featured Products</h1>
{{block type=”category/product_list” category_id=”24” template=”catalog/product/list.phtml”}}

The text ‘Featured Products’ shows up, but the actual products don’t. I’m using the modern theme.

Can any suggest why this is so?

Cooler, thanks for the code, it seems to work just fine.

however, this is only for new items. Any idea how to get this to display for X random products?

Also, i get this: “Out of stock” on one of my items even though it is in stock and also tells you it is when you actually click on it.

I’m displaying products from one selected category on my home page.  It works, but doesn’t look so nice.  Need to tweak the look.  I think I’ll create a category call “Featured Products” and then select that category to be display on the homepage.

Hyteckit: Loved your site. I see you’re using the Modern theme, as am I. I’m attempting to to show a specific category on the home page and I’m having no luck. Perhaps you or someone can point me in the right direction. I’ve followed the instructions to the letter and and still I don’t see anything on the home page. I inserted the following code in the CMS:

<h1> Featured Products</h1>

{{block type=”category/product_list” category_id=”15” template=”catalog/product/list.phtml”}}

“Featured Products” shows up, but nothing else. The category is valid. The items are in-stock and show up when I view the category directly. It simply will not display them on the home page, whether I use Modern or Default themes.

Can anyone suggest a solution? The learning curve with Magento is very steep, but I feel it is the best eCommerce solution I’ve yet used - it blows OSCommerce away.

mikej165,

Hmm… don’t know.  That’s pretty much all I did to get it to show up.  Category id 61 being my feature products category.

{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="61" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

Aha! When it doubt, it’s probably a typo.

I was using this:
{{block type=”category/product_list” category_id=”15” template=”catalog/product/list.phtml”}}

After re-reading your post, I changed it to this:
{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="15" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

All is well and good in the universe now. Thank you very much!

I’ve added this:

{{block type="catalog/product_list" category_id="3" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

Is there a way to override the default list view from grid to list? On the home page I’d like the list view and on all others I’d like the grid view.

Hello

I’ve got more landing pages, where I want to display products by attributes this way:

but not with category id, with attribute id. I’ve tried a lot of solutions, but there is no good one.

Another sulution is display the searc result:

I don’t want to show the other searching result options.

Any idea?

Thanks

Hi, it’s maybe a bug. The solution is to replace the line:

Good luck
