Friends,
In some of our cms pages (including home page) we use this code:
{{block type = "catalog/product_list" category_id = "4" template = "catalog/product/list.phtml" }}
In all pages that we use it the page is returning “no products” message.
you can see it on the following links:
http://farmadelivery.com/ache
http://farmadelivery.com/bayer
http://farmadelivery.com/eurofarma
the above links are from some manufactors that have a categorie for it´s products and listed with this code.
I need some help in how to solve it urgently!
any help or patch?
upgraded from 1.1.8 to 1.2.0.1.
Regards

Friends,
I just got an insight about this issue.
I have 3 root categories. One for the full store, one for the products to show on home page and another to the manufactors.
before upgrading to 1.2.0.1 by informing just the category ID it worked fine.
Now the categorie must be under the same store root categorie and it must be active, as the categorie parent too.
I´m still working on it and need some help in how to solve it.
regards,

friends.
any help?
I tried to remove the categorie and create a url rewrite to the advanced search by manufactor, but with this I lost the features of cms pages (ie change title, edit meta description etc).
where do I have to change to this function again like in the past?
regards,

looking the code I found that this problem maybe is been caused by the new search layered navigation function.
any help in how to solve it?
as the categorie is disabled, the products are not been shown.

yes…
the problem is that the manufactor´s category is disabled to not show in categories menu.
with that, the products in this categorie is no longer listed with the code above ...

Hi André,
In a similar situation, but with a very small number of categories to display in the menu, I solved my problem by using the “navigation toolbar” extension which allows you to build your menu. You can then decide what you put in this menu. This is a very powerful and useful extension
BUT
- caveat 1: it will usually force an upgrade to 1.2.0 or 1.2.0.1, which you might prefer not to do at this stage
- even with 1.2.0x, you will need to manually copy the directory for the extension in /design/XXX/default/templet

i just found a rudge problem....
well… for some how one of the categories that where empty now is showing one product!
the problem is that the category has 322 products!
another problem is that when removing a category product, it´s still been shown on the front end!
let´s see what vairen´s team say now…
there are a lot of inconsistency in category´s features.
let´s keep watching

I think I have the same problem, to display items on the front page from a featured category (ID: 6), I use…
{{block type = "catalog/product_list" category_id = "6" template = "catalog/product/featured.phtml" }}
But this no longer displays anything.
