Hi, I would like to display 1 featured product from each category on a home page. Is anybody know how it can done? Many thanks

Easiest way is to manually add them in the featured products area. Are you saying you want them random?

Hi Balinor, thanks a lot for your reply. The thing is I want to display it somewhere in this code:

{foreach from=$subcategories item=subcat}
{ $subcat.category|escape }
{/foreach}.

Many thanks

You said the home page, that code is for showing the sub-categories - you can't show featured products within the sub-categories loop. Perhaps you could explain exactly what you are after?

This code displays root categories on a home page

Yes, but you still can't put featured products inside that code. Are you trying to show a featured product next to each category?

Yes, I▓m would like to have root subcategories and featured product from each one.

You'd need to have something like that custom developed.

Balinor, thanks a lot for that. Maybe I didn’t explain my issue correctly but do you think it’s no easy way to display $f_products where $subcat.categoryid = “X”?

Many thanks
