Manufacturer-link in the product_info

I want to have an image with link of my to my manufacturers products in the product_info

Like the sideboxes of manufacturers, when you click on the link you will get all the products of the manufacturer.

I've created now for the tpl_product_info.php an image with link for the manufacturers.....The image works great, but i can't get the manufacturers_id into the link.

This is what i've got:

  <?php
  
   if ($check_image = zen_get_products_manufacturers_image((int)$_GET['products_id'])) {
     echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, 'manufacturers_id=' . $manufacturer_info_sidebox->fields['manufacturers_id']) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $check_image) . '</a>' . "\n" ;
   } else {
     echo 'NO IMAGE';
   }
   
 ?>

Peek in the functions_lookups.php ... there should be a function for grabbing the manufacturers_image ... :smile:

It is probably labeled something silly like:
zen_get_products_manufacturers_image

I found this, but how can i get that manufacterer_id

 /*
 * Return a product's manufacturer's image, from Prod ID
 * TABLES: products, manufacturers
 */
  function zen_get_products_manufacturers_image($product_id) {
    global $db;

    $product_query = "select m.manufacturers_image
                      from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " .
                            TABLE_MANUFACTURERS . " m
                      where p.products_id = '" . (int)$product_id . "'
                      and p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id";

    $product =$db->Execute($product_query);

    return $product->fields['manufacturers_image'];
  }

/*
 * Return a product's manufacturer's id, from Prod ID
 * TABLES: products
 */
  function zen_get_products_manufacturers_id($product_id) {
    global $db;

    $product_query = "select p.manufacturers_id
                      from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p
                      where p.products_id = '" . (int)$product_id . "'";

    $product =$db->Execute($product_query);

    return $product->fields['manufacturers_id'];
  }

Pass the function the products_id ... :cool:

Ajeh:

Pass the function the products_id ... :cool:

What do you mean by "Pass the function the products_id"

:clap:solution:
add to "modules\pages\product_info\main_template_vars.php"

$manufacturers_id= zen_get_products_manufacturers_id((int)$_GET['products_id']);
```after

$manufacturers_name= zen_get_products_manufacturers_name((int)$_GET['products_id']);

in the tpl_product_info_display.php add the code where you want:

Is there a way to overide the "modules\pages\product_info\main_template_vars.php" te exclude this for futered updates

Thank you ! I borrowed this code to add a link to my manufacturer names :)

Shirley

but I've this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function zen_get_products_manufacturers_id() in ..../includes/modules/pages/product_info/main_template_vars.php on line 70

You could be missing the function ...

Use the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... and search with the bottom input box for:
function zen_get_products_manufacturers_id

See what you find ...

If nothing, up in a previous post on this thread is the content of that function:
zen_get_products_manufacturers_id

You could add it to a file and put that in your:
/includes/functions/extra_functions

directory for now ...

I did as you suggested me. in the developer kit I have not found the function, then I created a file manufacturers.php into /includes/functions/extra_functions and I copied $manufacturers_id= zen_get_products_manufacturers_id((int)$_GET['products_id']);, but the manufactures image link still don't work

What does your code look like to show the manufacturers_image and what file did you put it in?

as you say I've created manufactures.php and add into it this code:
$manufacturers_id= zen_get_products_manufacturers_id((int)$_GET['products_id']);
but the manufacture image link don't work, instead the function appear on very top of my website (so I deleted this new file).
if I understand your question, in template_product_info_display I've:

to show the manufacturer image

I use 4277 version of functions_lookups, and I've add this:
*

• Return a product's manufacturer's id, from Prod ID

• TABLES: products

*/

function zen_get_products_manufacturers_id($product_id) {

global $db;



$product_query = "select p.manufacturers_id

                  from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p

                  where p.products_id = '" . (int)$product_id . "'";



$product =$db->Execute($product_query);



return $product->fields['manufacturers_id'];

}

now all work fine. thanks
and instead to have the image linked to the homepage of manufacturer?

I am relatively very new to this type of application and definately learning all the way.

I need to know how and where I can have the Manufacturers Logos displayed on my website. I have uploaded the Logos/Names through the Admin Panel but they are not showing on my site.

They only show when I click on a product I have added to the database.

An example of what I want to achieve is here:

The logos are displayed on the bottom left.

Please Assist :smile:
