If you need to put on a cms page, you can use this module. If you want to put on another page, you can be inspired from here to do the same for the page where you need it.

Thanks for your reply.

Actually, I've tested this module but you can't use it in page.tpl.

however, if it's possible i don't wanna use any module to display the specific products.

thanks again

It's too general when you say you use it in page.tpl. Which page (controller) exactly do you want to use?

Can you detail a little more what you want to do exactly? In principle, if you use javascript and have product ids, you can make an ajax to a controller, and bring the product details, after which you can display them on the page.

Actually i'm writing an algorithm to display some specific products based on the answers of the user , that's why i used javascript.

can you tell please me how to do it with ajax

Thanks

You need to do this in a plugin, you have to put the controller in:
ex. your_module/controllers/front/ajax.php

You can see more details here, e.g. what class you need to extend, how to generate the link to the controller, which you should call when you make the ajax request.

https://devdocs.prestashop.com/1.7/modules/concepts/controllers/front-controllers/

You will have to send the product ids through ajax, there if you have the ids, bring the product details, fetch a template, and send the html back and append.
