Seasonal Centerbox [support thread]

[swguy]

The Seasonal Centerbox is acenterbox - just like the New Products, Featured Products and Monthly Specials Centerboxes - which allows you to show off randomly selected items from a specific category.

The includes/templates/custom/templates/tpl_modules_seasonal.php goes in includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/templates/tpl_modules_seasonal.php.

Apparently, the plugin moderator missed the standardization at https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/first.../#yourtemplate.



Seriously, keep up the great work.

I have installed and made modifications per the readme file. Should this display in admin/configuration/index listing ?
I cannot locate where to utilize this like I would the featured products.

zc 1.5.7.b

It's not yet admin-controllable (will be in the next release). Right now, see step 6 in the README.txt for customization instructions.

Thank You!

Seasonal Centerbox has been updated to provide built-in admin controls so file edits are no longer required.

I installed your latest version on 1.5.7c. I followed instructions that says :
Right above
while (!$show_display_category->EOF) {

add this block of code:

<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_seasonal.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_seasonal.php'); ?>


Here is my file:
$show_display_category = $db->Execute(SQL_SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MAIN);
<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_seasonal.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_seasonal.php'); ?>
while (!$show_display_category->EOF) {

causes my Main page center to be empty. No Main page or features nor specials... Just blank.

Did I miss something????? Thanks

You are already in PHP in the block where you pasted it. So no need for the start and end php - instead use

$show_display_category = $db->Execute(SQL_SHOW_PRODUCT_INFO_MAIN);
require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_seasonal.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_seasonal.php');
while (!$show_display_category->EOF) {
