Special block does not appear in Catalog mode

[GreddyMR2]

Hi there,

 

I have a problem...

I can't make the speacial block to appear in my page.

 

I have a couple of products with discount, block is turned on, but doesn't appear.

 

Aany ideas on this?

 

EDIT: have just found out that the problem is connected with catalog mode. I am using it.

When I turn off catalog mode, specials are shown, but what can I do to show specials with catalog mode?

No block is shown at all. When I turn off Catalog mode, everything is ok.

you will need to remove the code in blockspecials.php

 

just remove the if and return, there are two places in the file...

	public function hookRightColumn($params)
	{
		if (Configuration::get('PS_CATALOG_MODE'))
			return ;

change to

//		if (Configuration::get('PS_CATALOG_MODE'))
//			return ;

This helps! Thank you.

 

But still one bug left.

Now it does not show price in this block. Here you can see it: www.topav.lt

I just wanted to disable all online shopping features and show only products and prices. So I did it with Catalog mode. But with it special block did not appear and was no prices on featured products as well.

 

Now I disabled all shopping features manually and it works perfectly with normal mode, not catalog.

 

P.S. I also turned off registration/login, it's not needed for me.
