It supposed to show the special items on the special block. But If I load the modified file, only just white page that shows nothing is displayed.
I did not clear the site’s cache, how can I clear it?

Could you clarify “not working as expected”? Did you also clear the site’s cache?

Hi, Thank your fir your code. However, this is not working with me. Could you please help me to work this out?

The PS version is 1.5.3.1

I changed the code as provided and because the version does not have button to clear cache I manually delete all cache file except index.php

When I load the modified blockspecial.php, the website does not show up anything.

It is just a white page.

To figure out the problem, I tried to delete some codes.

// this line does not work
return $this->display(__FILE__, ‘blockspecials.tpl’, $this->getCacheId(‘blockspecials|’.$random));

// after deleting $this->getCacheId(‘blockspecials|’.$random));
return $this->display(__FILE__, ‘blockspecials.tpl’);

When I delete the $this-> getCachedID ~~~

the website shows up, but does not working as I expected.

Thank you in advance.
