Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

Tuan,

Thanks for your post #37. Worked great on 4.1.3!

Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

I am testing 4.1.3 right now. I am using the code on post #37 and was getting a smarty error when there were no bestsellers or related products (I have incorporated this mod into my related products). In order to fix the smarty error, I had to wrap some of the language in modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.php in an if statement. I used the following code and it seemed to work.
Put this at the bottom of modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.php

Code:

if ($bestsellers) {

        foreach ($bestsellers as $i=>$item) {

        $bestsellers[$i]["tmbn_url"] = func_get_image_url($item[productid],"T");

        }

}



$smarty->assign("bestsellers",$bestsellers);

?>

I also added a similar line to the bottom of my modules/Upselling_Products/related_products.php file so that a tmbn_url would get passed so I could have images on my related products.

Code:

if ($product_links) {

        foreach ($product_links as $i=>$item) {

        $product_links[$i]["tmbn_url"] = func_get_image_url($item[productid],"T");

        }

}



$smarty->assign("product_links",$product_links);

?>

Hope this helps.

Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

I took Balinor's "fix" and was nearly satisfied with the results. However, I moved the <a href> link higher in the code so that the user could click the figure as well as the text to go to the upsell product, and I inserted a <br> to force the text to the following line: Here's my modified code that seems to work fine in 4.0.19:

{* $Id: related_products.tpl,v 1.7.6.1 2004/12/06 svowl Exp $ *}
{if $product_links ne ""}

{capture name=dialog}
{assign var="tmp" value="0"}

{section name=cat_num loop=$product_links}
{if $product_links[cat_num].productid}{assign var="tmp" value="1"}{/if}
{/section}

{section name=cat_num loop=$product_links}

{ if %cat_num.first% }
<table border=0 cellspacing=5 width=100%>
{/if}

{if $smarty.section.cat_num.index is div by 3}
</tr><tr valign="top">
{/if}

<td width="250" align="center">

<a href="product.php?productid={ $product_links[cat_num].productid }"{if $config.Modules.upselling_new_window eq 'Y'} target="_blank"{/if}>

{include file="product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$product_links[cat_num].productid image_x=$config.Appearance.thumbnail_width product=$product_links[cat_num].product tmbn_url=$product_links[cat_num].tmbn_url}

<BR>
<span class="ProductTitle">{ $product_links[cat_num].product|escape}</span>
</a></td>
{ if %cat_num.last% }
</tr></table>
{/if}
{/section}
{/capture}
{include file="dialog.tpl" title=$lng.lbl_related_products content=$smarty.capture.dialog extra="width=100%"}

{else}
{capture name=dialog}
No related products.
{/capture}
{include file="dialog.tpl" title=$lng.lbl_related_products content=$smarty.capture.dialog extra="width=100%"}
{/if}

Cheers,
Susan

Where did you find this original set of code? I have searched but cannot find it. I want to add prices and pictures but for only 1 column.

Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

Cankus,

Did you mean 4.1.3? Has anyone tested it in 4.1.6? Also, can this be used for the Related Products?

I don't use the recommended products because they are random. I only use the related products that are chosen to appear on the product page (upselling links) and I really need to add columns there.
If this code does not work, does any one know where I can find the right one?

Thanks!

Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

Thank you for the code, works great!

Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

Sorry if this has been covered already but is it possible to just show related products from the same category of the page it is on?

Re: Pictures in recommends.tpl for 3 column format

This mod is great... I just installed it on 4.1.6 and looks great.

Thanks!!
