Prestashop is not just another e-commerce solution. It is an open-source package that is freely available. However, Prestashop has many good features and modules that are all included in the basic package, unlike other e-commerce solutions. There is generally a list of categories on the user side of the Prestashop installation. If for some reason you wish to add additional module links and customize the category list that this is possible. You can add more links by following the steps described below:

1. Login to your server using FTP and access the file structure.

2. Goto the folder /themes/default/modules/blockcategories in case where the default theme is in use.

3. Then download the file blockcategories.tpl and edit it.
