    Exclamation Latest Items from individual categories- home page

    Hi, How do we add different blocks on the homepage that show the lastest items out of certain categories?

    Hello Jude,

    You can install Listing Box Plugin for that, but this plugin will allow you show latest listings from all categories. If you want to show listings from certain categories it needs some changes. If you want I send you code for that.
    At first implement listing box plugin and check it.

    Hello Jude,

    go to Admin Panel >> Listing Box click + Add new block button and create new box.

    Then go to Admin Panel >> Content Boxes find block with want name like you created box and remember key for this block for me it's 'listing_box_1'

    then go to phpMyAdmin(mysql database) >> blocks and find line with this key and click edit.

    in Content field you can see:

    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    find line:

    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    and replace to:

    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    where: 'books/accessories' it's category path. Where you want to take listings.

    and save it.

    Then go to ftp://plugins>>listing_box>>rlListingsBox.class.php

    find method: getListings and code:

    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    and replace to:
    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    then find code:
    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    and after it add new code:

    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    save and check.

    Hi Viktor, your first post is more than a year and a half old, is it still relevant with the latest Flynax software? Because I couldn't follow your steps.

    I can create a Content Box (from Admin Panel->Content->Add a Content Box) but it asks me to select a box type: HTML, PHP or Smarty. Which one do I choose and what do I include in the content field?
