You won't be able to update your installation any more to get bugfixes and security fixes.

If you are working with different themes, make sure you have adapted the templates of your custom theme(s).
Yes, I have been making changes in my custom theme rather than in the vendor directory.

My shop.php file already has this line in it, but the menu still does not show

Do you use a custom theme?
If yes, does the page/index.blade.php template from your extension look like this (with "shop::base" replaced by the theme base template)?

Yes, my theme index.blade.php is exactly like that.

I do have two extensions in my packages directory. One is for admin changes and one for the front-end theme. The admin extension doesn't have any theme files in it so it shouldn't affect things, but I mention it just in case it does have an effect.

Okay, I have found the solution. In my base.blade.php the nav is displayed with:

Code: Select all

@yield('aimeos_head_nav');
So I had to change:

Code: Select all

@section('aimeos_nav')
to

Code: Select all

@section('aimeos_head_nav')
in page/index.blade.php

I also had to change

Code: Select all

@section('aimeos_basket')
to

Code: Select all

@section('aimeos_head_basket')
to make the basket appear in the header

As a quick follow-up to this, I would also like to have the search box in the header for CMS pages. I can see that in Aimeos/Shop/Controller/PageController.php that only cms/page, catalog/tree and basket/mini are added to the params array.

How can I decorate or override this to include catalog/search too?

Same way as for the navigation: Add "catalog/search" to your ./config/shop.php and to the Blade template
