I would like to display the manufacturer for each of my products right below the title in both the product listing and the product details displays. I created a new label called "lbl_brand" and I would like it to diplay the manufacturer.

Here is what I have so far in the products.tpl.

rigth under the Product Title line, I have:

{$lng.lbl_brand} : {$products[product].xxxxxxx} where xxxxxx stands for the name of the field that contains the manufacturer information. What is the value of xxxxxx???? i tried "manufacturer" and it didnt work.


Alternatively:
I also tried creating an EXTRA FIELD called "Brand" and inputting the names of the manufacturers in there. Then I changed the code in products.tpl by substituting "Brand" for the xxxxxxx. Tha didnt work either.

Please help.

"The trick" didn't really work for me. But thanks for the patronizing remark, nonetheless. I'm glad there are helpful people like you on this board.

Balinor, where are you? I need your help.

it works, read it properly

Speaking of reading things properly, if you scroll up, you will notice that my primary aim was to include the manufaturer in the product LISTING right underneath the title. The "trick" in the link you submitted talks only about displaying the manufacturer in the produt detail page, and even as such, it does not work FOR ME.
