Hello,

Im using the product manager by inserting the {products category='random'} to the page where I want the list of that category products. And if the category is empty aka there is no products -> nothing comes out.

So what I want is that there would read "No products" or something like that if the category is empty  ::). I have tried editing the summary template but I noticed that it wont even be included if the category is empty.

For me the module was only called when usinf {Products} with a capital P
check that one too

yes I use capital P when calling the module.. I just want it to print no products if category is empty 

Products Manager - Preferences - Product Detail Settings

Did you fill those up?

Yes those settings are ok. The module works fine and I just want to modificate it to show "No products" if the category is empty.

something like:
If there is products{
list products
}
else{
print the no products line
}

{capture assign="is_empty"}{Products category="Specials" summarytemplate="specials"}{/capture}
{if $is_empty != ''}{Products category="Specials" summarytemplate="specials"}{else}There are no specials on right now.{/if}
