List 8 latest products on homepage - Magento 1.9.2.1 -
i know question gets asked quite bit , seems straight forward can't seem find post states answer works.
there few solutions on how list products marked 'new from' date in backend , there solutions list latest products specific category need 8 added products catalog full stop.
currently manually adding products 'latest products' category id of 116
and have in content of home page cms page:
{{block type="catalog/product_list" name="home.catalog.product.list" alias="products_homepage" category_id="116" template="catalog/product/list-latest.phtml"}}
then in list-latest.phtml template file, have code collection:
<?php $_productcollection=$this->getloadedproductcollection()->setpagesize(10); $_productcollection->clear(); //this unset loaded items. $_productcollection->getselect()->limit(10); //set new limit $_productcollection->getselect()->reset(zend_db_select::order); //reset order $_productcollection->getselect()->order('cat_index_position asc');//force order position in category $_productcollection->load(); $_helper = $this->helper('catalog/output'); ?>
and loops through collection , works fine need way latest products categories , automatically put latest 8 products on homepage.
is there way alter code this?
please try following code
place below code in home page via admin login cms->select home page-> design->layout update xml
<block type="catalog/product_new" name="home.catalog.product.new" alias="product_new" template="catalog/product/new.phtml" after="cms_page"> <action method="addpriceblocktype"> <type>bundle</type> <block>bundle/catalog_product_price</block> <template>bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml</template> </action> <action method="setcolumncount"><columns>4</columns></action> <action method="setproductscount"><count>8</count></action> </block>
