Catalog templates

Template list

The following templates are used to render the catalog and its parts:

  • SilversolutionsEshopBundle:Catalog:catalog.html.twig - whole catalog
  • catalog/product.html.twig - individual product
  • SilversolutionsEshopBundle:Catalog:productType.html.twig - product type
  • SilversolutionsEshopBundle:Catalog:Subrequests/listChildren.html.twig - product categories

The templates have access to the catalog node provided by the controller. To show all the available attributes, use getAttributeNames(): {{ catalogElement.attributeNames|json_encode }}.

Product categories

You can use different layouts to display a product category page:

1
siso_core.default.category_view: product_list

Available options:

  • product_list: display product list directly
  • both: display subcategories and product list, including an option to display facets in the left sidebar instead of the navigation
  • categories: display only subcategories. For the last category only, if there are no subcategories, display the product list

Configuration for templates

The configuration for choosing templates is stored in silver.eshop.yml:

Catalog URLs

URLs are provided by special methods:

  • SEO URL: {{ catalogElement.seoUrl }}
  • permanent URL: {{ catalogElement.permanentUrl }}

Since these URLs contain the prefix defined in the routing table as well, the path() function of Twig cannot be used.
