Hi,

The best is to create a view override for the view product listing table.
Thanks to that you can add a new column and display the manufacturer in the cells.

Yes i have added the column and header in the listing_table view
I took this code from another thread because i do not know how to display the manufacturer url.
I see nowhere in your document where this is described ""How to show manufacturer url on listing_table""

I try this but does not work
<td>
<?php echo JText :: sprintf('MANUFACTURER_URL', '<a href="' . $this->element->product_url . '" target="_blank">' . $this->element->product_url . '</a>');?>
</td>

It only display words ""Brand Url: ""

How do show the manufacturer in each row on product listing_table ?

Thanks in advance

Hello,
Using that code through the file "listing_img_title" of the view "product" of your front-end template via "Hikashop->Display->Views" will probably help you :

Code:

<?php
$manufacturerClass = hikashop_get('class.category');
$manufacturer = $manufacturerClass->get($this->row->product_manufacturer_id);
echo $manufacturer->category_name; 
?>

<?php
$manufacturerClass = hikashop_get('class.category');
$manufacturer = $manufacturerClass->get($this->row->product_manufacturer_id);
echo $manufacturer->category_description;
?>

This does not return manufacturer on Products Listing_Table either ....

Hi,

Are you sure that you are editing the view in the correct template ?
Please try: echo $manufacturer->category_name; instead of echo $manufacturer->category_description;

Xavior and Mohamed

That was the solution.
I was so tired I didn't even realize that I was calling the wrong column(description)
Thank you so much for the extra attention and noticing the little details. It saved my day

Thanks again

Hello,

How can we add link to manufacture name?

Where do you exactly want your customer to be redirected by using this link ?

Then you'll have to use a link like :

Code:

$manufacturer_url = HIKASHOP_LIVE.'index.php?option=com_hikashop&ctrl=category&task=listing&cid='.$manufacturer_id.'&name='.$manufacturer->category_name.'&Itemid=MANUFACTURER _LISTING_ID'

MANUFACTURER _LISTING_ID : your manufacturer listing content menu ID
$manufacturer_id : your manufacturer ID

I couldn't get the provided code to dd a link to the brands listing to work .
I have created the following for a link back to a products listing in listing_img_title.php ( as an override)

Code:

<span class="hikashop_product_brand"><?php

if($this->config->get('manufacturer_display', 1) && !empty($this->row->product_manufacturer_id)){
	$categoryClass = hikashop_get('class.category');
	$manufacturer = $categoryClass->get($this->row->product_manufacturer_id);
	if($manufacturer->category_published){
		$menuClass = hikashop_get('class.menus');
		$Itemid = $menuClass->loadAMenuItemId('manufacturer','listing');
		if(empty($Itemid)){
			$Itemid = $menuClass->loadAMenuItemId('','');
		}
		$categoryClass->addAlias($manufacturer);
		echo JText::_('').''.'<a href="'.hikashop_contentLink('category&task=listing&cid='.$manufacturer->category_id.'&name='.$manufacturer->alias.'&Itemid='.$Itemid,$manufacturer).'">'.$manufacturer->category_name.'</a>';
		echo "<span style='display:none;' itemprop='Brand'>". $manufacturer->category_name ."</span>";
	}
}?></span>

This almost works...It shows the list of products for the brand but for some reason it goes to a random product category in the URL ( so it shows that random category modules ( banners etc) ).

How would I change this so that the Link URL starts with "brands/" instead of the random category?

Thanks

Hi,

I suppose that the "start of the URL" is the alias of the menu item.
That's because you have that code:

Code:

		$menuClass = hikashop_get('class.menus');
		$Itemid = $menuClass->loadAMenuItemId('manufacturer','listing');
		if(empty($Itemid)){
			$Itemid = $menuClass->loadAMenuItemId('','');
		}

This sets the $Itemid variable to the id of a menu item which is either a brands listing or a categories listing.
And then, Joomla's SEF systme uses that id to get the alias of the menu item and use it at the beginning of the URL.
So if you want to have a specific text there, you should create a menu item of the type HikaShop category configured to display the brands, set in it the alias you want (brands) and use such code:
$Itemid = XXX;
where XXX is the id of that menu item.
