[FIXED] how to register and install hook in prestashop 1.7?

Issue

I have added one module hook manage box in PrestaShop 1.7 . Module is installed and i have created one hook called dispalybeforehome but it is not showing me in my module. how to register it ?

Solution

In your module during the installation, with the install method you should add this snippet:

$this->registerHook('displayBeforeHome');

For example:

public function install()
{
    return parent::install() and $this->registerHook('displayBeforeHome');
}

Then you have to create the hookDisplayBeforeHome method in your module:

public function hookDisplayBeforeHome($params)
{
    // do your stuff
    return 'IT WORKS!';
}

Then in the template add the smarty snippet to call the hook:

{hook h='displayBeforeHome'}

That's all ;)
