Customize Manufacturers Homepage Link

[charlwillia6]

I want to customize the Manufacturer Homepage link that shows up in the Manufacturer Sidebox. I have checked out manufacture.php, and I don't know a lick of code, so if it is there, I have no idea where or how to change it.

I would just change the CSS of my template, but I don't want all the links to change, just the Homepage link that shows up in the Manufacture sidebox. I would like to adjust the size of the text used for that llink, because right now it is so big that it ends up being on two lines like this:

- Micro-trak
Homepage
- Other Products

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

What you need to do is make an override copy of includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes/tpl_manufacturer_info.php, and edit this line of code to put your own distinct style class on the link:

$content .= '<li><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_REDIRECT, 'action=manufacturer&manufacturers_id=' . $manufacturer_info_sidebox->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '" target="_blank">' . sprintf(BOX_MANUFACTURER_INFO_HOMEPAGE, $manufacturer_info_sidebox->fields['manufacturers_name']) . '</a></li>' . "\n" ;

so it looks like this:

$content .= '<li><a class="myclass" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_REDIRECT, 'action=manufacturer&manufacturers_id=' . $manufacturer_info_sidebox->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '" target="_blank">' . sprintf(BOX_MANUFACTURER_INFO_HOMEPAGE, $manufacturer_info_sidebox->fields['manufacturers_name']) . '</a></li>' . "\n" ;

Then just add your new class to the stylesheet
