it will not work (method with include)

you have to move whole hook (not good idea)

or create new one and attach your module to this new hook (proper solution)

this is the pretty same issue, i thought i need a new hook and you said not

so how can i create a new hook? i searched a lot but i didnt solve this in 2 months

 

however, i dont know if i try to move the slideshow in displayHeader i get the error message "this module cannot be transplanted to this hook"

displayHeader hook option is not a good idea

it's a part of shop where you have to include js/css files, not "visibile" content.

 

 

 

i thought i need a new hook and you said not

where i said that ?

 

 

create new hook with this guide: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/2182[spam-filter]create-custom-and-new-hook-in-ps-15/

 

attach your module to this hook (you have to create function inside module php file to support new hook)

 

then in your template file add your hook to place, where you want to display slider

[alfredopacino]

in your link i see "I strongly recommend you first to use the new method

( $this->registerHook('displayMyNewHook'); )"

 

shouldnt i use that?

[vekia]

you can, but the most important is something else

function to handle your new hook

public function hookdisplayMyNewHook($params){
//function code here
}

ok but if i want to use the 1.5 procedure without editing the db what is the exactly procedure?

[vekia]

it's not possible, you have to include new hook to the database,

it's necessary, this is how you have to create new hook

in the thread you linked i see "..doesn't need to add field to database manually.."

i mean that
