I did get this to work in the product.tpl but I could not get it to work in products.tpl.

Is there a difference or a change needed?

Thanks in advance.

Hmm, the version listed below is wrong, I'm 0n 4.0.13

Yes I would like to know if the manufacturers logo can be placed in the product.tpl as well as the products.tpl file?

[mffowler]

Isn't that in Modules/Manufacturers/customer_manufacturer_products.tpl?

Something like:

{if $manufacturer.url ne ''}{/if}[img]{$xcart_web_dir}/mlogo.php?manufacturerid={$manufacturer.manufacturerid}[/img]{if $manufacturer.url ne ''}{/if}

Wow that site looks good, but I am still having problems getting the manufacturers logo to show for me.
I am just getting the standard Xcart image holder.
Could someone please post the correct code to display the manufacturers logo at the top of the products template?

Ok, this is how I did it and it works like a charm in 4.0.13. The following code first checks to see if a manufacturers image is available. If so, the image is shown as a link. I also created a language file called {$lng.lbl_click_more_manuf_products} which basically say "Click above image to see all toys under this manufacturer".

In the product.tpl add this code wherever you want the image to appear. If you cut and paste this code as is and insert it just after the "</TR></TABLE></TD>" code at around row 142, the image will appear to the right hand side in a column of it's own.

{if $manufacturer ne ""}
<td width="100" align="center" valign="top">[img]{$xcart_web_dir}/mlogo.php?manufacturerid={$product.manufacturerid}[/img]

{$lng.lbl_click_more_manuf_products}
</TD>
{/if}

In product.php at the following code just after:

$main = "product";
$smarty->assign("main",$main);

(you should find it near row 50)

$thisManufactorer = $product_info["manufacturerid"]; 
$manufacturer = func_query("SELECT * FROM $sql_tbl[manufacturers] WHERE manufacturerid = $thisManufactorer"); 
$smarty->assign("manufacturer", $manufacturer[0]["manufacturer"]); 

This is a great mod so I hope it works for you as well as it works for me.

Does anyone know how to get the manufacturer's description to display on product.tpl ? {$manufacturer.descr} isn't working. Thanks in advance for any replies! -christa

I figured it out...

In product.php, under this code provided above:
($smarty->assign("manufacturer", $manufacturer[0]["manufacturer"])

Add:
$smarty->assign("thedescr", $manufacturer[0]["descr"]);


Then in product.tpl, add:
{$thedescr}

This worked for me as well. I have 4.1.10

<TR><TD align="left" valign="top">{$lng.lbl_manufacturer}:</TD>
<TD align="left" valign="top">{$product.manufacturer}</TD>
</TR>

... and now my product's manufacturer is in the product details page.
