I want to show featured products in 2 seperated blocks, each block has its own block title, and show products according to product order, how to do, pls?

Use the position field for future product - say 2 block of 3 products each - 1 block positions 0-100 second block positions 100-200. Then create each block based on position with an if statement

It is somethign like this

{if $product.orderby lt 100}
show first block
{elseif $product.orderby gt 100}
show second block
{/if}

for example, i have set 30 featured products, i want to show 3 blocks:
Hot Prducts: featured products 1-10
Discount Products: featured products 11-20
Latest Prodcuts: featured products 21-30

How to modify skin/2-columns/customer/main/featured.tpl, do i need modify other files also.

There are a couple of these threads floating around about grouping featured products by the sort order. It seems very simple but the order variable is not available to smarty. So there needs to be a SQL query (I'm guessing) in the featured_products.php file. Can anybody provide php I would need to add, so I can have an if statement in the templates? Like:

if $f_products.orderby lte 100
show them
else
something else
/if

You might have to add a line like this to include/search.php:

PHP Code:

$fields[] = $sql_tbl['featured_products'] . '.product_order'; 


You may also have to wrap that in a test for $inner_joins['featured_products']
