Hmm I am not sure you can override a module’s controller actually, just the core file. Never tried honestly, nor I read of the syntax it would require

Hi Nemo, this is a good introduction to overrides. I have Prestashop-based site which already have an override under override folder called AdminOrdersController.php. Currently, I have created a module with a controller that is displaying from a .tpl file. I would like to extend on the override, to insert carrier filter. I understand that this can be insert in the override directly (I have done it) but I am required to create a module for it as I do not have access to the core files on production, just work requirement. Is this possible?

Good Morning
Following your instructions found informations.tpl in folder /themes/default/template/controllers/products but could not locate

{$bullet_common_field} {l s=’UPC:’}

upc|escape:html:’UTF-8′}” style=”width: 130px; margin-right: 5px;” /> {l s='(US, Canada)’}

what did I do wrong?

Hi,

I’ve added an extra id field to the Product class, but it’s an array (like a lang field). I can’t work out how to make it an integer instead of an array – any ideas?

ALTER TABLE `ps_product` ADD `id_delivery_tier` INT(10) UNSIGNED DEFAULT NULL

class Product extends ProductCore
{
public $id_delivery_tier;
public function __construct($id_product = null, $full = false, $id_lang = null, $id_shop = null, Context $context = null)
{
self::$definition[‘fields’][‘id_delivery_tier’] = array(‘type’ => self::TYPE_INT, ‘validate’ => ‘isUnsignedId’);
parent::__construct($id_product, $full, $id_lang, $id_shop, $context);
}

Product Object
(
[id_delivery_tier] => Array
(
[1] =>
)

Hey!
Thank you soooo much for posting this article. I feel I’ve turned the web over to find the only (almost complete )

explanations. So many posts out there suggest just editing the class files…

You might consider completing the instructions with a means of making the new field behave properly in a multi-store environment (adding ‘shop’ => true in the constructor).

Anyway, I was mainly writing to tell you the donate button was broken as I’d like to reward you for all the time you saved me

Cheers,
Tom

Hi, Nemo. This guide looks pretty but does it work with newest presta (I have 1.7.1.2) ? Maybe somewhere there is newer guide?

Hi Nemo, this guide looks pretty but does it work with newest presta (I have presta 1.7.1.2)? I really need this functionality. Maybe somewhere is newer guide?

Hi Nemo, thank you for your quick reply, but it is kind of important for my boss, so could you at least give me something to work with, or point me towards a module that does this kind of things?

Hi Elise, thanks for following!
Well actually that’s something extremely complex, it would require a tutorial, or perhaps more, on its own, so I can’t really explain it step by step in a comment. I might talk about it in a future tut though, thanks for the suggestion!

Hi Nemo, I followed your guide step by step, and it works wonders! But I’m stuck : I need to add custom fields to my combinations, but I don’t know how to do it. It doesn’t seem to work like the categories or products. I’ve tried a lot of things, but nothing worked, the info is never send to the database… So, if you could explain to me how to add a custom field to a combination, it would really be great. Please?
