adding manufacturer description

[liquidlead]

I'm trying to find a way to add a manufacturer description to the manufacturer's page, but I can't find the file I would add it to. I've done a search in the developers-toolkit for manufacturers_id, but I couldn't find the file that actually defines it....any suggestions?

Ultimately, i'd like it set up so that when someone clicks on a manufaturer's name the corresponding products have a description, somewhat similar to the categories description.

In my case the manufacturers are artists, and when you click on their name it would show an artist description and a picture. Like this: http://studiolaguna.com/portfolio/artist-pg2.htm

I really appreciate all the help!

Thanks!
Heidi
p.s. this is the site, still in early development: www.liquidlead-art.com/zencart

This is exactly what I've been searching for for two days, and I came to the forums for help.

Does anyone have any news on this?

Is there another place to pose this question, since it was not responded to since May?

Hi
My Site is about Artists i.e the Manufacturers are renamed Artists and I also needed a Artists Description/Biography.
My Solution was to create an EZPage and add it to the Product as Homepage as can be seen here. (on right side you will see the Artists Info Box with a Link to "Homepage" which leads to the Biography.

Maybe not a perfect Solution but for the time being it works.

Oh this would be perfect.. has anyone came up with a solution for this??

I'd basically need description set up from admin for manufacturer(brand) and then call it up with custom line of code where ever I'd need it.. fex I'd need to display product description and brand description below it..

Yeah, I need this too! I don't know why there is no text area to add a manufacturers description. Seems kind of obvious to me.

Maybe someone wants to code this? You probably just needs to add a new field to the db and update some pages (i think)...

I've needed this for months! It would definitely be nice to have.

I would like the answer to this, too.
