Prestashop 1.5.6.2 homefeatured in alphabetical order

[monova]

Hi there,

 

I'm working on www.shapemanagement.ro and I have a problem. I want my homefeatured module to display my "products" in alphabetical order.

 

Does anyone know how to do this? Using PS 1.5.6.2

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

You can do it in 2 manners.

 

1. Change the query for fetching featured product & add order by name (you need to overwride the file).

 

2. You can sort the result array by product name.

 

 

Thanks

Thank you Alok,

 

Could you give more details on one of the fixes recommended by you?

open file:

/modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.php

 

there is a code like:
 

$category->getProducts((int)Context::getContext()->language->id, 1, ($nb ? $nb : 8), "position");

change "position" to "name", and add orderWay param where you can define method of sort "ASC - ascending or DESC - descending"

$category->getProducts((int)Context::getContext()->language->id, 1, ($nb ? $nb : 8), "name", "ASC");

How do you deal with numbers?? I have a list of Album Highlights on my store (i.e.: Album 1, Album, 2, Album 3, Album 4, Album 5, Album 6, Album 7, Album 8, Album 9, Album 10)

 

When I get to 10 is when the issue starts (Album 10 goes next to Album 1)... but and the same with (Album 20 next to Album 2).

I have a picture of the result. 

 

 

How do I fix this?? Please help.
