How to Disable a Static Block on Home Page in Magento

cms-blockcms-pagesstatic-block

This one has me baffled.

I have a static block situated at the bottom of my home page and just above the footer labelled. The static block is titled ‘Recommended’.

It is a sliding product block and I can not find it listed in my static blocks in admin/cms/static_blocks in order to disable is and I can also not find the code in my HOME page CMS content that is calling the block.

Below is an image of the block and below that is the code from the HOME page CMS.

You can see that the static block is located below three images 1) Free UK Delivery, 2) Fast Worldwide Delivery, 3) Easy Returns, all of which are the last piece of code in my HOME page CMS content.

No other code comes after the code for these and so I am baffled as to where the static block code is being called from for the ‘Recommended’ block.

To find a path of template you could enable a path hint which helps you for which you can refer.

And per as your question is concern please check once CMS->Widget. we can use a block in widget.

also check a layout xml's either local.xml or custom extensions xml.

Hope this will help you.
