get configurable swatches in homepage product list (Custom product list)












3















I have populated bestselling products on homepage. It's populating list of products as desired. Now i have enabled configurable swatches & have enabled on product listing(i'm using rwd theme).



I can see color swatches on product lists in my product listing page. Now i want those swatches on my custom product list at homepagepage.



What i tried:



<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('core/template')->setTemplate('configurableswatches/catalog/product/list/swatches.phtml')->toHtml(); ?>


This above prints nothing.



And i get all the code from rwd/default/theme/configurableswatches/catalog/product/list/swatches.phtml inside products populating loop. And it worked and shows the swatches, but now clicking on swatches has no effect to image ? (Image doesn't changes as like it does on product listing for same product even after i added all configurableswatches js under skin/frontend/rwd/default/js/configurableswatches/*.js).



What is the best way to achieve configurable swatches on custom product list on homepage ?
