CLance · February 4, 2014

I need some help here.
I want the TOP MENU been moved to the area under HOME SLIDER and CATEGORY BLOCK.

I want the TOP MENU used up all the 980 px width.

1) move home slider to top section (free modification here: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/256941-module-prestashop-homeslider-on-top-free-modification/)

2) install this module

3) go to modules > positions search for displayTop modules list and move imageslider BELOW the top horizontal menu module

CLance · February 5, 2014

Thanks, Vekia, However, this way only enable the HomeSlider moved to the top of the page.
I want the Categories Block been move to the position next to the HomeSlider as well.

I tried to hook Categories Block to the displayTop, but unfortunately, it shows "This module cannot be transplanted to this hook."

What I want is as the picture below.

somehow second part of my post disappeared!

in blockcategories.php file right before last bracket } add this code:

    public function hookdisplayTop$params)
	{
		return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);
	}

then save changes and go to modules > positions and transplant block categories module to displayTop,

then back to modules>positions and move it (block categories) right before home slider module. You have to do it on "displayTop" modules list.

CLance · February 6, 2014

No, I cant get the result. Blank page shows.

After I pasted these code, i went to BO and choose Module>Position, it show blank page, I could not proceed.

Even my homepage is blank now... http://eviewtrading.com/denmall/marketplace/

vekia · February 7, 2014

oops!

my bad!

instead of:

	  public function hookdisplayTop$params)
	{
		return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);
	}

use:

	  public function hookdisplayTop($params)
	{
		return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);
	}

it was typo ;/

CLance · February 10, 2014

Yes. I got it. Thank you. That's the way to hook to Top of the page.

I found a difficulty to move homeslider same row with categories block although I float it to right.

Can you please guide me?

here is my condition: http://eviewtrading.com/denmall/marketplace/

vekia · February 10, 2014

global.css line 295

there is a code:

#categories_block_left {
width: 200px;
padding-top: 120px;
}

add there just float:left;

#categories_block_left {
width: 200px;
padding-top: 120px;
float: left;
}

effect:

Hii,
