Categories (name and link) in Specials Module
Posted: Fri May 15, 2015 10:24 am
Hello. Can someone help me making simple module to show categories (name and link) under product name on homepage in specials module? I'm working on localhost for now on default open theme (OpenCart 2.0.2.0). I found working module that shows exactly what i want to achieve but in product page (not in homepage -> special module).
It's probalby very easy to do but i cant make it working.
