Matrice v1.4 Editorial.tpl Issue

[alpinenut]

Hi folks,

I know this issue has been raised before but I can't see a resolution anywhere on the forum. I'm trying to edit the text that appears over the home page slider on the right hand side of each of the 4 images. In fact I would like to remove the text and black shading altogether if I work out how to.

I've edited the editorial.tpl file to include my text but it does not change when I view the site. I've investigated making changes via the back office by going to Tools, Translations, Module Translations but still no use. When I look in Module Translations under Matrice, there is only one field for adding text. This field does actually show my own text but it does not show up on the shop front.

Has anyone else had this problem and managed to fix it? I'm a bit stuck now. It seems like the database is holding on to the original data and not updating itself with the changed file contents. I'm no expert but that's the only thing I can think of.

I'm running the latest version of Prestashop v1.4.1.

Hope someone can help.

Thanks,

Adrian.

OK. I managed to solve by going to "preferences>performance and turn off cache and turn on force compile". The solution was posted on this forum. Obviously I did not look hard enough. Yippee!

If you want to change or edit the original the text on the slideshow, you don't have to edit the editorial.tpl file. i had the same issue, i solved it this way.
Look for at the administration panel, the tools tab. then click on the translations menu.
there you'll have to choose the module translation section, then press the flag button of the language you want to edit.
when the page is loaded there are two buttons
the first one belongs to default text messages availble to edit/translate on the
the second one to the text messages contained on the matrice (black and white) themes.
click on the second one, if you don't want to scroll down lots of editable text, before you get to the one you are interested in (editorial).
when you finish editing the text, save the changes.
make sure of delete the history and cookies saved by your browser, if you don't you won't be able to see the changes made on the frontpage of your store.
Hope this helps.

Si quieres editar el texto en el slideshow de las plantillas matrice y black and white de prestashop. No es necesario que edites el archivo editorial.tpl.
Lo puedes hacer desde el panel de administracion, desde la seccion de herramientas+traduccion de modulos. Es necesario escoger el idioma que deseas editar, Casi al final de la pagina encontraras la casilla llamada editorial.tpl donde podras sustituir el texto por el que quieras.

This helped me a lot when editing the text. Do you know how to edit the link in the slideshow?

I'm with the same problem...

I used matrices quite awhile ago so am not sure if there is any new development to this theme.

 

To edit the link i edit the /themes/matrice/modules/editorial/editorial.tpl file.

 

<li style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; display: none; z-index: 2; opacity: 0;">
  <a href="http://yourdomain.com/#"> <img src="{$base_dir}themes/matrice/modules/editorial/images/2.jpg" alt="image" /> </a>
  <span class="slide_caption">
   {l s='"bla bla bla.' mod='editorial'}<br />
	  </span>
 </li>

 

Change "http://yourdomain.com/#" to the link you are referring to ( in this case image 2.jpg in your slider will be directed to this particular link.)

 

 

hope it helps

Hola, sigo las indicaciones al pie de la letra, pero no encuentro por ningún lado la casilla editorial.tpl para sustituir el texto que aparece. Podéis enviarme un pantallazo de donde buscar exactamente?? Muchas Gracias

Usa Filezilla para acceder a tus archivos de la página y buscas /themes/matrice/modules/editorial.

 

Aquí encontrarás el editorial.tpl (te aconsejo que guardes dos copias -una original y la que editarás- por si lo dañas).

 

En ese Archivo encontrarás lo que dijo halennor.
