  • 0

I am trying to control the price text from Magento Admin panel and for that I have overwritten default/template/catalog/product/price.phtml and trying to change the line:

<span class="price-label"><?php echo $this->__('Regular Price:') ?></span>

to

<span class="price-label"><?php $this->newPriceText(); ?></span>

I have created newPriceText(); method in local/MyCompany/Catalog/Block/Product/Price.php, which looks like this at the moment:

class MyCompany_Catalog_Block_Product_Price extends Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_Price
{
    public function newPriceText()
    {
        print_r('Testing Price Text');
    }

but I’m getting the following error:

}

I’m not sure where I’m doing it wrong. Any idea?

I’m still waiting for the answer. Please help?

    Your trace says:

    Invalid method Mage_Catalog_Block_Product_Price::testPrice(Array())

    which is different from the method newPriceText() that you have defined in the block and are also calling in your template.

    Scan your template for testPrice() or $this->testPrice() calls.

    Maybe you originally had defined a method named testPrice, then deleted it, or changed its name to newPriceText afterwards, but forgot to remove/rename the method calls in your template accordingly.
