Bestsellers on 1 static page
 

Hi guys,

Does anyone know how to create a static page that shows all the bestsellers?

I only want this on one page.

I have created a static page in the admin called shows.php and now I want to show all the bestsellers on the shows page.

My shows page link is ecommerce/pages.php?pageid=12

So i'm guessing I need to give an if statement on pages id=12 somewhere.

Anyone?

I am using X Cart Version 4.5.5

You would need to see if the Bestsellers variables are available in static pages for a start. Check in webmaster mode. I might be wrong but I'm guessing not.

Thanks, I already have the bestsellers mod installed and it is showing them on the home page.

Just need to show them on the shows.php page.

Yes but have you checked the bestsellers variables are available on the static page? Not all variables are available everywhere. Turn on webmaster mode. Go to your static page and look to see if $bestsellers is in the list of variables in the popup.

Your lucky it is. {$bestsellers}. That saves some time. First try would be to copy the homepage include code for the bestsellers and paste in a static page in the back end. Make sure you have parse smarty tags ticked.

Tested it on mine and that works so all you need now is a custom {include file="modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.tpl"} that calls in the amount of products that you want. I would limit it as there will probably be a lot if you have a big store.

Thanks philrisk brilliant, got it working now.

It was the parse smarty tags box that I needed to tick, thank you once again you are a star.
