I'm trying to add a new products block to the product view pages, I have several products marked as new & they DO show up on the homepage, for some reason they won't display on the individual product pages.
here is what I have in my local.xml
<catalog_product_view>
<reference name="root">
<action method="setTemplate"><template>page/1column.phtml</template></action>
</reference>
<reference name="content">
<block type="catalog/product_new" name="product_list_popular" alias="product_list_popular" template="catalog/product/product_list_popular.phtml">
<action method="addPriceBlockType">
<type>bundle</type>
<block>bundle/catalog_product_price</block>
<template>bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml</template>
</action>
<action method="setProductsCount"><count>8</count></action>
</block>
</reference>
</catalog_product_view>
I have tried this in the content reference and by adding
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('product_list_popular') ?>
to the 1column template [and removing the reference from local.xml] - niether of these work.
what am I doing wrong?
