Answer 1

In Magento admin panel go to CMS> Pages>Home page.

{{block  type="catalog/product_list" category_id="4"  template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

In case you want to control the number of columns in product listing, please use the following code:

{{block type="catalog/product_list" column_count="4" category_id="4" template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

Where the column_count value is the number of columns.

Navigate to System->Permissions->Blocks.

Click on the Add new block button.

Specify your Block Name, which is: catalog/product_list.

And allow the Block using the YES/No Dropdown list

Answer 2

it may happen with you in system.log Security problem: catalog/product_list has not been whitelisted.

You need to give the permission for your block

Go to System->Permissions->Blocks.

Click add new block where block name catalog/product_list and isAllowed -> Yes

Now save. Clear cache. Hope this will solve your problem

And hope this will work for you

Answer 3

Go to CMS->PAGES->HOME:

{{block  type="catalog/product_list" category_id="4"  template="catalog/product/list.phtml"}}

Call the above code.

Thanks
