How to modify the block position

 

 

 

How to modify the product display on the list page (whether to display in list or in table by default)

 

In your custom theme open up catalog. xml and find the following line on around line 100:

<Action method = "setdefagrigridperpage"> <limit> 3 </limit> </action>
<Action method = "addPagerLimit"> <mode> grid </mode> <limit> 15 </limit> </action>
<Action method = "addPagerLimit" translate = "label"> <mode> grid </mode> <limit> all </limit> <label> All </label>

</Action>

 

Add ad for left slider

 

The callouts are hardcoded in the default layout xml to be files on your server. I think you can change them to be static blocks instead, so you can manipulate them in the admin instead of in the layout files.

Update:
I got my head wrapped around how to do this now.

In the default theme, the catalog. xml file has this for the left callout:

 

<Reference name = "left">
<Block type = "core/template" name = "left. permanent. callout" template = "callouts/left_col.phtml">
<Action method = "setImgSrc"> <src> images/media/col_left_callout.jpg </src> </action>
<Action method = "setImgAlt" translate = "alt" module = "catalog"> <alt> Our customer service is available 24/7. call us at (800) DEMO-NUMBER. </alt> </action>
<Action method = "setLinkUrl"> <url> checkout/cart </url> </action>
</Block>
</Reference>

 

I changed it to this: (just use custom block to replace default block)

<Reference name = "left">
<Block type = "cms/block" name = "left. permanent. callout">
<Action method = "setBlockId"> <block_id> left_column_block </block_id> </action>
</Block>
</Reference>

And added a CMS Static Block with an ID of left_column_block. I can put whatever I want in there from the backend (including empty) and it will show in the left column. I did the same thing with the right column, and can add more in strategic places for future editing by the client in the backend. this worked even when I hadn't created the static block yet

 

 

Change default currency setting

 

Selected default display currency is not available in allowed currencies

Solution:
Clear Cache
At the same time, replace the data with Allowed Currencies and other Currencies to include the corresponding currency type.

 

 

How to configure multiple website

 

 

Change the template layout

Open page. xml file.

<Reference name = "root">

<Action method = "setTemplate"> <template> page/2columns-left.phtml </template> </action>
</Reference>

 

Remove the default logo [and replace]

1. Go to System | upgrade Aon | Advanced. You shocould see the Disable
Modules output page.
2. Locate the module labeled Mage_Newsleer and/or Mage_Poll, and select Disable.
3. Click on the Save Config button.

 

 

How to add special category content [you can put it in home page or other pages]

 

<Reference name = "content">

<Block type = "catalog/product_list" name = "featured" template = "catalog/product/list. phtml">
<Action method = "setCategoryId"> <category_id> [category id here] </category_id> </action>
</Block>
</Reference>

 

 

 

Development Reference

 

Database:

Logs and user behavior data occupy a large amount of database disk space.

TRUNCATE table 'Log _ url_info ';
TRUNCATE table 'Log _ url ';
TRUNCATE table 'report _ event ';
TRUNCATE table 'Log _ visitor_info ';
TRUNCATE table 'Log _ visitor ';
TRUNCATE table 'index _ event ';
TRUNCATE table 'report _ viewed_product_index ';
TRUNCATE table 'dataflow _ batch_export ';
TRUNCATE table 'index _ process_event ';
TRUNCATE table 'dataflow _ batch_import ';

 

Use the database method to modify the model

<? Php

Require_once 'app/Mage. php ';
Mage: app ();
// Instatiate Product
$ Product = Mage: getModel ('catalog/product ');
$ Product-> setWebsiteIds (array (1 ));
$ Product-> setSku ('rand-sku-'. rand ());
$ Product-> setPrice (rand (100,2000 ));
$ Product-> setAttributeSetId (4 );
$ Product-> setCategoryIds (array (3 ));
$ Product-> setType ('simple product ');
$ Product-> setName ('product name'. rand ));
$ Product-> setDescription ('the Product description ');
$ Product-> setincludescription ('Brief description ');
$ Product-> setStatus (1 );
$ Product-> setTaxClassId ('2 ');
$ Product-> setWeight (0 );
$ Product-> setCreatedAt (strtotime ('now '));
/* ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
$ Product-> setCost ();
$ Product-> setInDepth ();
$ Product-> setKeywords ();
*/
$ Product-> save ();
// "Stock Item" still required regardless of whether inventory
// Control is used, or stock item error given at checkout!
$ StockItem = Mage: getModel ('cataloginventory/stock_item ');
$ StockItem-> loadByProduct ($ product-> getId ());
$ StockItem-> setData ('is _ in_stock ', 1 );
$ StockItem-> save ();
Header ("Location:/checkout/cart/add/product/". $ product-> getId ()."/);
?>
