I think you are fetching category in your custom page then your declartion should be as below



<block type="catalog/product_list" name="itemsShoes" category_id="4" module="Mine" template="slider/shoes.phtml"></block>


here 4 is your category Id



and yes you have to change your block type as yours this catalog/product_list will point Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List

  • How do I overrite that class so I can still point to that type? Also I want the category id to be assigned based on the nane attribute.

There are lot of mistakes.



First of all I will start with naming the module.



Change this /var/www/html/magento/app/code/mine/MINE to /var/www/html/magento/app/code/community/Mine/MyMine. Remember, we are placing your extension in app/code/community folder. You can usually place in community or local.



Now, your folder/file structure:



Mine/MyMine/etc/config.xml
Mine/MyMine/Block/List.php


Your config.xml should be like this:



<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
<Mine_MyMine>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</Mine_MyMine>
</modules>
<global>
<blocks>
<mine>
<class>Mine_MyMine_Block</class>
</mine>
</blocks>
</global>
</config>


Your List.php (You shouldn't use Mage in naming your module, Mage should be reserved for core.) And it should reside this way app/code/community/Mine/MyMine/Block/Product/List.php



class Mine_MyMine_Block_Product_List extends Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List

protected function _getProductCollection()

$category_id = 3;
$category2B = $this->getNameInLayout;
if($category2B =="itemsShoes")
$category_id = 3; //important

collection = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/category')->load($category_id)
->getProductCollection()
->addAttributeToSelect('*');

return collection;

public function zetLoadedProductCollection()

return $this->_getProductCollection();




Most importantly your module activation in /var/www/html/magento/app/etc/modules







true
community




Finally, your local.xml



<block type="page/html" name="shoeFinder2" module="mine" template="slider/shoefinder2.phtml">
<block type="mine/product_list" name="itemsShoes" module="mine" template="slider/shoes.phtml"></block>
<block type="mine/product_list" name="itemsClothes" module="mine" template="slider/clothes.phtml"></block>
<block type="mine/product_list" name="itemsTennis" module="mine" template="slider/tennis.phtml"></block>


You haven't fully included your local.xml here, so there should be more logic in it to get it work, since you are not overwriting Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List block.



This should help.

    There are lot of mistakes.



    First of all I will start with naming the module.



    Change this /var/www/html/magento/app/code/mine/MINE to /var/www/html/magento/app/code/community/Mine/MyMine. Remember, we are placing your extension in app/code/community folder. You can usually place in community or local.



    Now, your folder/file structure:



    Mine/MyMine/etc/config.xml
    Mine/MyMine/Block/List.php


    Your config.xml should be like this:



    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <config>
    <modules>
    <Mine_MyMine>
    <version>0.1.0</version>
    </Mine_MyMine>
    </modules>
    <global>
    <blocks>
    <mine>
    <class>Mine_MyMine_Block</class>
    </mine>
    </blocks>
    </global>
    </config>


    Your List.php (You shouldn't use Mage in naming your module, Mage should be reserved for core.) And it should reside this way app/code/community/Mine/MyMine/Block/Product/List.php



    class Mine_MyMine_Block_Product_List extends Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List

    protected function _getProductCollection()

    $category_id = 3;
    $category2B = $this->getNameInLayout;
    if($category2B =="itemsShoes")
    $category_id = 3; //important

    collection = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/category')->load($category_id)
    ->getProductCollection()
    ->addAttributeToSelect('*');

    return collection;

    public function zetLoadedProductCollection()

    return $this->_getProductCollection();




    Most importantly your module activation in /var/www/html/magento/app/etc/modules







    true
    community




    Finally, your local.xml



    <block type="page/html" name="shoeFinder2" module="mine" template="slider/shoefinder2.phtml">
    <block type="mine/product_list" name="itemsShoes" module="mine" template="slider/shoes.phtml"></block>
    <block type="mine/product_list" name="itemsClothes" module="mine" template="slider/clothes.phtml"></block>
    <block type="mine/product_list" name="itemsTennis" module="mine" template="slider/tennis.phtml"></block>


    You haven't fully included your local.xml here, so there should be more logic in it to get it work, since you are not overwriting Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_List block.



    This should help.
