I am trying to create a theme using Prestashop 1.6 and the Default theme as reference.

Whenever i try

But in my case i just want the search module to be displayed.How can i display only the search block and the signIn,create account i want them to be displayed in another place.

Also can i get any advice or tutorials from where i can learn the theming the right way.I guess i am doing stuff the wrong way.

You can create new hooks for each module you want to display elsewhere.

By default, the blocks you don't want are hooked to TOP.

You need to un-hook those from TOP. Create new one : - sql : 

INSERT INTO ps_hook (name,title,description,position,live_edit) VALUES ('yourNewHook','title of your new hook', 'description of your new hook', '1', '1');
INSERT INTO ps_hook_alias (alias, name) VALUES ('the alias of your new hook','yourNewHook');

  • controller :

    public function hookYourNewHook ($param) { if (!$this->_prepareHook($param)) return; return $this->display(FILE, 'templateofyournewhook.tpl');}

Modify or add a register hook in public function install() : $this->registerHook(' alias of your new hook')

Now you can call your hook in a tpl with {hook h="yourNewHook"}
