Prestashop Main Menu Module - module

I'm using the module provided by Prestashop but when I add the 'Home' shop category it doesn't link to the page where it lists all the products. Is there a way to link to the top parent category while it still having children?

The home category use this link:
www.mysite.com/2-home
This link works only in PrestaShop >= 1.7.x.x
In PrestaShop 1.6 is not "navigable"
If you want to link the home category from the module use a custom link and not the category that you find in the (multi)select

Show Prestashop Layered Navigation Block and All Products on Home Page

I am creating an e-commerce website on the platform of prestashop. I tried various ways to to show the product filters i.e. Layered Navigation Block to appear on the home page. How can I do this ? I'm using the default theme of Prestashop.
Also, on the home page, only a few products are being displayed. For Example, only the popular and the best seller products are being displayed. Instead, I wish to display all the products on the home page. How can I do this ?
You can try to use "Home featured products" and set a necessary number of products to display in it in order to show more products on your homepage. It is the simplest way to solve your requirements with products, in another case you need to use some third-party modules to do it. What about the second point, you can't use default Layered Navigation Module outside the Category pages so you also need a third-party module to do this or need to make some development to the module.

How to know the template of the main page in prestashop

I want to know where is the main template of a prestashop project.
I come from Laravel and this is something weird to me.
Thanks.
in Prestashop 1.7 its in themes/classic/templates/
page.tpl for the home page
catalog/product.tpl for the product page
catalog/listing/product-list.tpl for any product list page
checkout/cart.tpl for the detailed cart
checkout/checkout.tpl for the checkout process
in Prestashop 1.6 , there is no main.tpl like in twig.
you just have something like this
header.tpl
page_name.tpl
footer.tpl
in themes/default-bootstrap/

How to add sub menu in front page for the product category in prestashop 1.6

I want to add sub menu for my category menu for my main menu displayed in the front landing page as shown here
This is my category
When I hover the Category Ticket I must be able to see three submenus
1)Buy ticket (link to the product page which will be always dynamic page)
2)See winners ( a cms page )
3)Check offers ( a cms page)
Category are displayed by adding category
Is there any option to do submenu for category from the prestashop 1.6 back end
You should install blocktopmenu module. Already contained in Prestashop official installation. This module allows you to create submenus. All you'll have to do is to style it with css.
Becouse I cant comment below Florian Lemaitre post I write here, module bloctopmenu didn't have options to create submenu, it is create automaticaly submenu only for category who contains subcategories. If somebody need create some custom submenus containing for example cms page or add home icon he must use third party module.

Lazy load pages in PrestaShop?

By default, pagination in PrestaShop is available in every product page (displaying up to 10 items per page).
But according to my project requirements, I need a lazy loading page (only 10 products need to displayed before trying to scroll down the page). Does PrestaShop have this feature ?
This is not possible by default.
You have to create your own module or buy/use available product like:
Masonry All Products
Infinite Scroll for Prestashop
3. Answer by thepsyntist from https://www.prestashop.com/forums/
[...] I successfully implemented an infinite scroll module on
Prestashop 1.6.0.11 (A custom theme) and 1.6.1.0 (Default theme). I
found this module on GitHub a couple of months ago and finally today I
got success implementing it. Hence I have no direct link for it or
know who created it. Link to the module.
If you'd like to load images the same way, there is one another module.

normally layered navigation block is only displayed on a few pages like category page, search pages. However I want to show it in the "manufacturer" page/controller. If someone clicks the "manufacturer" menu to show up all the manufacturers, I want to show the "layered navigation" on the left column of the manufaturer controller.
Does someone know how to do that ?
