PHP Question: Adding href to Manufacturer image

[Feznizzle]

Hello,

A while back I added my manufacturers' logos to product pages by inserting this code:

<!--bof: Mfg logo image -->
<?php
if ($check_image = zen_get_products_manufacturers_image((int)$_GET['products_id'])) {
echo '<a class="manufacturer">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
} else {
echo ' ';
}

?>

<!--eof: Mfg logo image -->

You can see it in action here:
http://2staging.apswittcosalesDOTcom...12_oz._Aerosol

Now I would now like to make that Techspray logo clickable, redirecting here:
http://2staging.apswittcosalesDOTcom...acturers_id=31

Here is an example of code that generates the href I want:

<a href="' . DIR_WS_CATALOG . 'index.php?main_page=index&amp;manufacturers_id=' . $manufacturers->fields['manufacturers_id'] . '">';

I just can't figure out how to wrap my image.

Can someone help me, pretty please!

You could try this:

echo '<a class="manufacturer" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $product_info->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;

Thanks, Ajeh!

When I tried replacing the echo statement with yours, it breaks site:

<?php
if ($check_image = zen_get_products_manufacturers_image((int)$_GET['products_id'])) {
echo '<a class="manufacturer" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $product_info->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
} else {
echo ' ';
}

?>

When I tried replacing the entire statement just to see if it would work like this:

<?php
echo '<a class="manufacturer" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $product_info->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;

?>

...the logo gets replaced by my standard No_Image.jpg... but the link works!!!

Getting close!

That IF makes the variable $check_image and if you remove the IF, then $check_image does not exist and it is part of what displays the image as that is the image ...

[Feznizzle]

So, this should have worked, right?

<?php
if ($check_image = zen_get_products_manufacturers_image((int)$_GET['products_id'])) {
echo '<a class="manufacturer" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $product_info->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
} else {
echo ' ';
}

?>

But it breaks the page

What am I doing wrong? Is it that second $check_image?

This is what I have based on what you you originally posted but I just added another echo for giggles and grins:

<!--bof: Mfg logo image -->
<?php
echo '<br>Does this work below?' . '<br>';
if ($check_image = zen_get_products_manufacturers_image((int)$_GET['products_id'])) {
//echo '<a class="manufacturer">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
echo '<a class="manufacturer" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $product_info->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
} else {
echo ' ';
}
?>
<!--eof: Mfg logo image -->

[Feznizzle]

It works!!!! Yaaaaaay! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

This is what is up now:

<!--bof: Mfg logo image -->
<?php
if ($check_image = zen_get_products_manufacturers_image((int)$_GET['products_id'])) {
echo '<a class="manufacturer" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $product_info->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
} else {
echo ' ';
}

?>

<!--eof: Mfg logo image -->

You rock!

Quick follow on...

Is there a way I can limit the width of my image to, say, no wider than 200px?

I don't want to stretch an image that is smaller, just prevent it from being too wide.

And...
Can I auto tag the image with a description, say MFG_NAME + " catalog"?

Thank you again for your awesome help!

Coolness ... had me wondering for a bit there as I tested it originally in Zen Cart v1.5.4 and thought maybe there was something different in v1.5.1 and it wsa not picking up the manufacturers_id ... then I stuck it in v1.5.1 and it still worked ...

Glad to hear that this was you and not me ...

Yeah, I have no idea what I did wrong. I followed your first instructions correctly, but it wonky for some reason. Second time I tried, worked like a charm!
