Show Products On 404 / Pagenotfound

[othreed]

Hi,

I am new to prestashop and do not know which file to edit to include products on the 404 error page.

 

Can someone please post some instructions on where to edit which file?

 

I am using  1.6.1.3 Prestashop

 

I read this article 

https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/341923-solved-how-to-display-products-on-404-page/?do=findComment&comment=1724971

but it does not contain any instruction. 

 

thanks for any help

I would try the 404.tpl in your theme's folder.

This is the content of 404.tpl

I want to display the products on this pagenotfound 


how and where should this code be placed?

{hook::exec('displayHomeTabContent')}

Try to paste it at the end, you will also need to modify the homefeatured.php module:

public function hookHeader($params)
	{
		if (isset($this->context->controller->php_self) && ($this->context->controller->php_self == 'index')
            || ($this->context->controller->php_self == 'pagenotfound'))
			$this->context->controller->addCSS(_THEME_CSS_DIR_.'product_list.css');
		$this->context->controller->addCSS(($this->_path).'css/homefeatured.css', 'all');
	}

[othreed]

thank you for your kind help

I added the following code to file:
modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.php

public function hookHeader($params)
    {
        if ((isset($this->context->controller->php_self) && ($this->context->controller->php_self == 'index')
|| ($this->context->controller->php_self == 'pagenotfound'))
            $this->context->controller->addCSS(_THEME_CSS_DIR_.'product_list.css');
        $this->context->controller->addCSS(($this->_path).'css/homefeatured.css', 'all');
    }

but the products are not displayed...

any suggestions?

[Daresh]

You should not add this code, but use it to modify your hookHeader function.

 

And you should paste the {hook::exec('displayHomeTabContent')} at the end of the 404.tpl.

[othreed]

thank you very much for the help  &  sorry for the misunderstanding 

 

After disabling cache it worked

 

 

 I modified the hookHeader function accordingly by adding the code

|| ($this->context->controller->php_self == 'pagenotfound'))

 

at line 117

 

and also added the {hook::exec('displayHomeTabContent')}

 

to the end of 404.tpl.

 

 

now all products which have the category "home" checked are displayed ..

 

Also there are two blue banners with text:
1.there are no new products.

2. there are no Discount products

 

now I will try to figure out why it displays thouse banners...

[Daresh]

Those banners are displayed because it replicates the tabs behavior from the homepage. And there you have tabs with new, featured and discount products.

 

So it also appears here. I tried to turn it by setting exceptions but it didn't work. But you can hide them with css rules:

 

Try adding this to your global.css:

#pagenotfound #blocknewproducts,
#pagenotfound #blockbestsellers,
#pagenotfound #blockspecials {
   display: none;
}

[othreed]

perfect

 

thank you soo much

 

happy holidays

Thanks, same to you and many sales in 2016 :-)
