MRost 6 Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) Hi, i have the following problem: the build-in ps_customtext module ( also named Custom Text Blocks, CMS Block, etc..) allows me to create only single instance. I'm running a clean, updated installation of prestashop 1.7. When i want to add more blocks - by navigating from list of modules and choosing 'Configure', it leads directly to editing of the single CMS block instance -instead of offering a list of created instances like Link Widget does. Same problem goes for Banner widget - i distinctly remember that this wasn't a problem in prestashop 1.5, i could have multiple CMS blocks. Have these modules been downgraded to single instance? Is this a bug? If this cannot be fixed, could You suggest a module that provides this function (multiple custom html blocks) ? I apologize in advance if this has been answered before - i have failed to find anything related to my problem with google.

MRost 6 Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) In the end i have solved this by creating a new module which merges classes and functions from ps_customtext and ps_linklist. Finally i can create multiple different text or html blocks for any hook ... Edit: Message me if anyone would like to have it. I haven't put it up because not all of the code is mine... Edit 2: Because there have been many people asking about the module, here is a link to it on my google drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_uyCHgQ-ZNGdjNPZWFTX1NjZ0k I don't know if it works on Prestashop 1.6. It probably does not, since the modules ps_customtext and ps_linklist are coded differently there. However there are many modules offering this function for 1.6. I hope that one day someone from Prestashop team will take time to integrate this vital function into the original ps_customtext module.

web-design-milano 2 Posted April 12, 2017 So there is still really no simple way in 2017 to add multiple text blocks in basic PS or am I missing something? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0a 6 Posted April 14, 2017 (edited) Thank you MRost for sharing your module. That's exacly what I was looking for.I can also recommend modules from Vekia Free HTML box https://mypresta.eu/modules/front-office-features/html-box.html Paid HTML box PRO https://mypresta.eu/modules/front-office-features/html-box-pro.html I haven't used them with 1.7, but they were very helpful on my previous project with 1.6 Edited April 14, 2017 by g0a (see edit history) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Killian 0 Posted July 5, 2018 Hi! Thanks for your zip archive, that's great! I'm running PS 1.7 on a MAMP server, it uploaded OK, but when I try accessing the configuration panel of the module, I have an error 500. Any idea of how I can fix this? Thanks!

Loic Roux 0 Posted August 29 I have rewrite some parts of the module because html content wasn't escaped correctly during SQL insert or update. Now you can fully use html content with single quotes in your html blocks. The function i've used are natives from prestashop 1.6 so i think the compatibility is ok. htmlblocks.zip Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
