First, this mod may need tweaking for the latest version (4.1.x) of X-Cart. It has been tested with latest (4.0.x) version however.

Within a product listing page, such as a Category page, or search results, etc. Attempt to use the products manufacturer's logo if no product thumbnail is found.

1) Edit include/search.php and locate:

$products[$k]["tmbn_url"] = func_get_thumbnail_url($v["productid"]);

2) Below the above found line add:

# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# If no thumbnail found, attempt to use a manufacturer logo instead.

			if($products[$k]["tmbn_url"]=="") { 
				#$mfr = func_query_first("SELECT manufacturerid FROM xcart_products WHERE productid='$productid'");
				$mfr = $products[$k]["manufacturerid"];
				if($mfr) {
					$return = "mlogo.php?manufacturerid=".$mfr;
					$products[$k]["mfrthumb"]	= $return;
					#return $return;
				}
			}
# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

3) Edit skin1/product_thumbnail and replace its contents with:

{* $Id: product_thumbnail.tpl,v 1.14 2004/06/24 09:53:29 max Exp $ *}
{if $config.Appearance.show_thumbnails eq "Y"}

	{** Cart-lab.com try to display mfr. thumb if no product image **}
	{if $mfrthumb && $tmbn_url eq ""}[img]{if $full_url}{$http_location}{else}{$xcart_web_dir}{/if}/{$mfrthumb}[/img]
	{else}
	{** Cart-lab.com try to display mfr. thumb if no product image **}

	[img]{if $tmbn_url}{$tmbn_url}{else}{if $full_url}{$http_location}{else}{$xcart_web_dir}{/if}/image.php?productid={$productid}{if $file_upload_data.file_path}&tmp=y{/if}{/if}[/img]
	{/if}

{/if} {** Cart-lab.com try to display mfr. thumb if no product image **}

4) Next edit skin1/main/customer/products.tpl (or products_t.tpl) and locate:

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

5) Replace the found code with:

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