I try to modify a module template in prestashop so I've copied the module to my theme folder "modules".
I've noticed that the theme is changing the only problem is that the translation is not. I got the original text on the final shop template. Is there some simple way of making this work?
I don't know how to make modules so this way was great except the translation part - the rest of the store is translated except those modules. I use prestashop 1.4.
In your Back Office, you need to edit the Module Translations under Tools > Translations > Modify Translations. They are translated separately from the Front Office and Back Office translations, just select "Modules" from the drop-down menu.
Make sure your module can be translated also :
{l s='Login' mod='blockuserinfo'}
The name of the module has to be here,
also make sure to check the prestashop user guide :

I'm using prestashop 1.6 and one module is not editable in SEO&URL, to change is meta.
Actually, i have the default pretashop meta title.
How can i add a custom header.tpl for this module ?
Thank you for your help
Tony
Assuming you are talking about a module with a controller,
you can add in the base file /modules/mymodule/mymodule.php,
inside the method __construct(),
a object like this $this->controllers = array('controller_file_name');, where the controller_file_name is the file which generate the page in the front office.
Once made this, you will need to re-install the module and this added object will generate a new page in the SEO&URL where you could change all the metas (title, description and keywords).
You can see some examples of this modules in the bankwire, cheque and blocknewsletter.
Recently I was doing some integrations on a non-standard/non-official prestashop 1.6 theme.
I found out after some manipulation on the Back-Office that the cart module doesn't appear on the Front-Office.
The cart module is enabled and is hooked to the displayNav and displayTop hooks.
It seems that cart module doesn't render any of its view code even when the "Disable module ovverides" is disabled.
The last and the only thing I've manipulated on the BO config is activating and then deactivating the "Force update friendly url".
Note that the current theme in based on an old theme and was made by an intern that didn't respect the official doc at all. What I mean by that is that you can find inline CSS and Javascript isnide a tpl file with no repsect of the smarty template engine syntax.
The current theme doesn't support many of the hooks that the default and basic prestashop theme offers.
I envisionned the following solution :
Read the 1.6 PS doc and make corrections on the theme. If the number of bugs, problems and mis-uses is not huge.
Rewrite the theme from groung zero in the worst case
After one day of lookin up answers on the web I found out that the catalog mode was off which makes the cart block disapears on the front-office.
I have added one module custom html box in PrestaShop 1.7 . Module is installed but you can use it only once .can i create multiple list of htmlbox?
This depend on the module, but if you are using htmlbox module, yes, the free version is programmed to only be used 1 time in 1 place.
But there are two options to do this without any developed module.
1st option:
You have the option to include these html code directly in the tpl of the activated theme.
In prestashop 1.7 version we have a new feature that, if you are in mode developer ("Advanced parameter" -> "Performance"), in the html you can see in what template is located any element.
For example, to add a code above the slider of the home page, if you inspect the element you can see this:
In the "begin" tag you have the template that you need to modify.
2nd option:
You can create a new module and use the display hooks correctly.
Here you have all that you need to know about the creation of modules.

I have a question about PrestaShop.
How can i detect which template and plugin/modules are using in a PrestShop site?
For example this site. I couldnt find the details on source code (for template name, it writes kva; but i think its a fake name. i dont think they use full custom template)
Thank you.
The theme name is "kva" and since the shop is called KrisVanAssche.com this most probably is custom theme. The only modules that you can know about are the ones that include .css and .js (in case of CCC is not enabled - which is the case in that site). So in the current case you can see that they use the feeder module, the paypal module and the cron module. Additionaly from the CCC JS & CSS you can see that they are using blockcart & blockuserinfo. That's all.
I would like to show a form in prestashop module and would like to store that value in database. How is it possible?? Is there any prestashop expert ??
You may use custom HTML block and add your form code inside that. And off course have to use a hook to show up that HTML block in the site.
There are lots of free Custom HTML block modules available.
You should take a look at all the modules available in the modules/ directory.
If you want to display a form in the back and/or the front office, you'll have to override different methods of the Module class, and you'll have to use the different hooks available..
Best regards,
Try this free module :
https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/391966-megablock-16-module-gratuit/
With this one you can add HTML in some hooks from back-office.
Everything is stored in database.
You should use Helpers and Tools class (Helpers show forms and Tools::getValues() does what it says...)
In MegaBlock there is also TinyMCE available. Have a look, this module is really useful ;-)
you can develop a module by using hooks based on the hooks used the form will be displayed in that position in prestashop while using hooks you need to assign a tpl file in that tpl file you can write the codings to display a form
And also you can develop a module with a separate controller and you can assign a tpl for that controller.
