Related Products

How can I add the product description in related products tpl? I have tried the following and nothing is coming from it:

PHP Code:


		
			
<div>{$product_links[num].descr|truncate:200:" ...":true}</div>

I would appreciate anybody's suggestions or ideas. THX

In skin1/modules/Upselling_Products/related_products.tpl inside the foreach after

Code:

          <td><a href="product.php?productid={$p.productid}"{if $config.Upselling_Products.upselling_new_window eq 'Y'} target="_blank"{/if}>{$p.product|amp}</a></td>

add

Code:

<td>{$p.descr|truncate:200:"...":true}</td>

If you want this for upselling products the code to add will be

Code:

<td>$product_links[cat_num].descr|truncate:200:"...":true}</td>

See if that works for you

Re: Related Products

Sorry, but where are you getting $p and or [cat_num] in 4.2.1? The only variable in the related_products.tpl is $product_links[num] which I have already tried with no luck. Let me know. THX

Re: Related Products

there is no $product_links[num] in related_products.tpl (are you sure your version is 4.2.1?)
Here is related_products.tpl file

Code:

{*

$Id: related_products.tpl,v 1.20 2008/10/06 15:11:35 max Exp $

vim: set ts=2 sw=2 sts=2 et:

*}

{if $product_links ne ""}

  {capture name=dialog}

    <table cellspacing="0" summary="{$lng.lbl_related_products|escape}">

      {foreach from=$product_links item=p}

        <tr>

          <td class="item-number">#{$p.productid}</td>

          <td><a href="product.php?productid={$p.productid}"{if $config.Upselling_Products.upselling_new_window eq 'Y'} target="_blank"{/if}>{$p.product|amp}</a></td>

        </tr>

      {/foreach}

    </table>

  {/capture}

  {include file="customer/dialog.tpl" title=$lng.lbl_related_products content=$smarty.capture.dialog additional_class="uproducts"}

{/if}

Re: Related Products

Ok when I add that though nothing shows up for any products even thought hey have descriptions. Can you verify this on your end?

Thanks

Re: Related Products

It turns out not all fields are available for related products. You need to make changes to php files to make descr and/or fulldescr fields available for recommended products and then the code I posted earlier will work
