V5 Blocks on other pages

[alfo]

Hi

How do you use 'blocks' on pages other than the index page?

Currently - Fatal error: Smarty error: [in footer.html line 201]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'block_new_and_updated_listing' (core.load_plugins.php, line 118)

Thanks

Just add the block code. I've tested in any files including footer.html and it work well.

<%block_directory_stat%>

@alfo, i'm sorry i think i'm not totally correct.
The version i tried is the latest update while you use 5.0.0. You're correct that in 5.0.0 you can not use block in 'included files' (header/footer)

We will release update version to solve this issue soon.

Thanks dody

I just managed to replicate the problem on the demo - so I will go and put it back as it should be now.

Many thanks

Dody,

Any idea when this update is going to be available? This is pretty much all I need to go live on my new site.

Is there any solution yet to use blocks in the header? What works for now is add the blocks you want to the header and add the same blocks to the index.html. Comment the blocks out in index.html and they will not show up in de index.html but will show up in header.html.

It's not the best solution but it works for testing purposes. I hope there will be a real solution soon.
