How to show the Newsletter block inside the Footer Various Links block?

[kingsinnersoul]

Hello there Prestashop engineers,

I have been trying dozens of things to do this, but all in vain.

I have modified the "Footer links block v0.1" (in the modules/blockvariouslinks/ folder)

I made a table there and I wish that in one of the cell the Newsletter block will show.

I created a new hook called footernewsletter in the hook database. Then, I have inserted

               {$HOOK_FOOTERNEWSLETTER}

in the blockvariouslinks.tpl file.

I tried to make it show there, changed and added lines in the blockvariouslinks.php. Nothing worked for me. I am new to this and read few posts here about how to create new hooks and all. But I can't make it show where I want to.

Please, can some one explain me what I need to do as in modifying the code?

Please Help.

The blocknewsletter Module by default is not intended to be positioned in the footer. That's why you'll have to make some alternations in the module itself.

Inside blocknewsletter/blocknewsletter.php you'll find the following lines of code

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

replace them with the following:

        function hookRightColumn($params)
       {
               return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);
       }        function hookFooter($params)
       {
               return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);
       }

done.

Also can't make this work :-(

 

I even can't find blockvariouslinks.tpl in my prestashop 1.4.5.1

 

Please advise

do what zwacklmann suggests, then go to modules->positions->transplant a module

in field "module" select "newsletter block"

in field "hook into" select "footer"

and save
