Display Related Product In view.phtml

Follow the below steps to display related products.
1. Open catalog.xml, found in
app/design/frontend/default/YOURTEMPLATE/layout/
2. In catalog.xml find the catalog_product_view section, around line 220. In the section, remove or comment out:
  1. <block type=“catalog/product_list_related” name=“catalog.product.related” before=“-”template=“catalog/product/list/related.phtml”/>
and replace with:
  1. <reference name=“content”>
  2. <block type=“catalog/product_view” name=“product.info” template=“catalog/product/view.phtml”>
  3. <block type=“catalog/product_list_related” name=“catalog.product.related” as=“related”template=“catalog/product/list/related.phtml”/>
  4. </block>
  5. </reference>
3. Now in your catalog/product/view.phtml you can print out the related products using
  1. <?php echo $this->getChildHtml(‘related’); ?>
To edit the look of that list, edit catalog/product/list/related.phtml
OR You can also try this code to display related products
  1. <?php echo $this->getChildHtml(‘catalog.product.related’) ?>
If that above code doesn’t work, you might also try:
  1. <?php echo $this->getLayout()->getBlock(‘catalog.product.related’)->toHtml()?>

CodeIgniter Disallowed Key Characters

Open libraries/Input.php (system/core/Input.php in CI version 2.0+) and locate function _clean_input_keys($str){, The whole block should look like so: function _clean_input_keys($str) {     if ( ! preg_match("/^[a-z0-9:_\/-]+$/i", $str))     {         exit('Disallowed Key Characters.');     }     return $str; } Modify the PCRE sot that it allows the new chars. Please not that the char thats missing is the .(dot) and you should always escape the .(dot) in Regular Expressions as they will otherwise allow any single char. /^[a-z0-9:_\/-\.]+$/i
