The original file is in:
/includes/templates/template_default/tpl_product_info_display.php

copy to your templates and overrides directory first:
/includes/templates/your_template_dir/tpl_product_info_display.php

Ok it works on the product info page. How do you get it to work on the product listing page. I tried everything.

I just want it to show the icons on the page the green, yellow, red icons. i want it to show between the price and more info button?

Can be seen here where i want to place it: http://dealz-r-us.com/index.php?main...ex&cPath=1_2_3

Thank you

You need to find the proper products_id ... on the product _info page it used:
(int)$_GET['products_id']

On the Listing, you need to locate the valid products_id for that page(s) ...

Ok you lost me here. It works for the product info page. wouldn't the same code you have here work on the product listing page? Am i correct in saying?

 <?php 
if (zen_get_products_stock((int)$_GET['products_id']) >1) { 
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_green.gif', '', 10, 10) . ''; 
} 

elseif (zen_get_products_stock((int)$_GET['products_id']) <1) { 
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_red.gif', '', 10, 10) . ''; 
} 

else { 
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_yellow.gif', '', 10, 10) . ''; 
} 
echo 'I SEE ' . $zc_stock_level_image; 
?> 

If so i'm just having a problem with putting the code in the page so it would show between the price and the more info button. Everything that i try does not work either it is on the top or it just does not show at all or the page goes blank. I just needed help on where the code would go.

[dscott1966]

I've tried to do the above and do what Mrs. Linda says, but i just can't get it. Wish i knew a little more of coding. Can someone tell me how to do this, what code would i use, and what page, and where i would place it.

I'm going nuts trying to figure this out for the last few days.

Thank you

If you are working on the Product Listing, you are most likely working with the:
/includes/modules/product_listing.php

and would reference the products_id with:
$listing->fields['products_id']

See if that works better for you ...

I Kind of understand what your saying tell me if i have the code right here?

<?php 
if (zen_get_products_stock((int)$listing->fields['products_id']) >1) { 
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_green.gif', '', 10, 10) . ''; 
} 

elseif (zen_get_products_stock((int)$listing->fields['products_id']) <1) { 
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_red.gif', '', 10, 10) . ''; 
} 

else { 
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_yellow.gif', '', 10, 10) . ''; 
} 
echo 'I SEE ' . $zc_stock_level_image; 
?> 

Do i have that correct?

Now my second question is this where in that file would i place the code?

You would need to change the code in your templates and overrides directory for the file:
/includes/modules/products_listing.php

and copy that to:
/includes/modules/your_template_dir/products_listing.php

and if you had, for example, the Product Qty showing and wanted the dot next to it you can use:

        case 'PRODUCT_LIST_QUANTITY':
        $lc_align = 'right';
        $lc_text = $listing->fields['products_quantity'];
if (zen_get_products_stock((int)$listing->fields['products_id']) >1) {
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_green.gif', '', 10, 10) . '';
}

elseif (zen_get_products_stock((int)$listing->fields['products_id']) <1) {
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_red.gif', '', 10, 10) . '';
}

else {
$zc_stock_level_image = '' . $products_quantity . zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_ICONS . 'icon_status_yellow.gif', '', 10, 10) . '';
}
$lc_text .= $zc_stock_level_image;

        break; 

Otherwise, you can add that to any active field that you are using in the CASE statements ...
