For version 1.5.4.1 you can download the homecategories free module from here: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/121735-free-module-homepage-categories-module/

 

In order to display correctly the pictures of each category, you should edit the homacatogories.tpl file (prestashop/modules/homecategories/homacatogories.tpl) and change the <img src="..."> tag into:

 

<img src="{$img_cat_dir}{$category.id_category}-large_default.jpg" alt="{$category.name}" title="{$category.name}" class="categoryImage" width="{$categorySize.width}" height="{$categorySize.height}" />

Hello!

Thank you for this explication!

Also I want to know, how I can put the home categories in the middle of the home page, and how I can make them bigger?

 

Thank you!

Change position in your administration... I use czech version, but it should be in module, module position. If you want make images bigger change height and width in homecategories.css. 

 

PS: Dimmat THX for peace of code, it was helpfull

Hi 

 

I have simple eshop with one product subcategory yet.

Please look at http://autoair.sk/index.php.

 

Products are included in this categories tree:

 

Home>autokozmetika>California Scents vôňe do auta

 

subcategory California Scents vôňe do auta contain 34 products

http://autoair.sk/index.php?id_category=14&controller=category

 

I need have ALL 34 products from this subcategory California Scents vôňe do auta displayed on frontpage

 

I was enabled this subcategory ID in homecategories module but ALL products appears on frontpage only after clicking to button, no automatically in first opening frontpage

is possible set this by default in opening page ?
