How can I create a list of categories using the native tools of all my product k2 in position left or rigth of my temple.

This is how i did it:

1) go to \modules\mod_k2_tools

2) modify mod_k2_tools.xml

---

add one option: categories column view as 9th option of K2_SELECT_MODULE_FUNCTIONALITY

3) go to helper.php, duplicate function treerecurse, and make some modifications to get a list of CAT

4) make a tamplate file in \modules\mod_k2_tools\tmpl for output

basically, you will get a array of all cat (or partial, depends on your xml, and function modification)
then, use CSS to layout it.

Here is a shot of my front page.

Hi. I don't get exactly what you are trying to do. You can try to create a new instance of K2 tools module in the module manager.

Modifying core K2 files is a really bad idea. Doing so will make you lose all your changes in future updates.

I found no place override mod_k2_tools, thats why went to its core. :blink:

@jeffrey liu

You can duplicate the whole module and give it a new name. This way you will have your own module and you can do whatever you like.

geeeeee.....why i forgot that hidden "Discover" function :angry:

Thanks.

Error: Module XML data not available

If you ever come across the error message “Module XML data not available” while editing module in admin panel , make sure you have xml file inside your module folder in the name “mod_YOURMODULENAME.xml”

this might be the problem and solution when using "Discover" function to install the new copy of module.

and dont forget include a copy of language file with mod_YOURMODULENAME in /language folder too
