I am currently using a CMS Block to add more details on my product page. I had the following block (product_custom) added inside catalog.xml:
<catalog_product_view translate="label">
<!--- ... --->
<reference name="content">
<!--- ... --->
<block type="catalog/product_view" name="product.info" template="catalog/product/view.phtml">
<block type="cms/block" name="product.info.custom" as="product_custom">
<action method="setBlockId">
<block_id>product_custom</block_id>
</action>
</block>
</block>
</reference>
</catalog_product_view>
Now, I want other products to show different content, so I created another block (product_custom2) and use Design > Custom Layout Update:
<reference name="content">
<block type="catalog/product_view">
<block type="cms/block" name="product.info.custom" as="product_custom">
<action method="setBlockId">
<block_id>product_custom2</block_id>
</action>
</block>
</block>
</reference>
Unfortunately, the product page is showing previous block instead of the new one.
Did I miss something on the custom layout xml? Or is it not allowed?
And what would possibly the best solution to this one?
Thanks for the replies.
