how to edit content in modules

[hkim45]

Hi I am a presta shop newbie and am trying to edit the content in the right side column.

I understand the MVC structure and that prestashop uses Smarty but I am not sure how to edit content the way I want.

 

In the themes directory, I created my own theme folder and in there, I find the header.tpl, index.tpl and footer.tpl. The footer.tpl has the right side column div.

<div id="right_column" class="column">

{$HOOK_RIGHT_COLUMN}

</div>

To modify modules content & options you must go to backoffice -> modules.

 

If you want to add custom html you can add after {$HOOK_RIGHT_COLUMN} and after do this, force recompile in backoffice.

Update: I figured out how to create modules and install them.
