link manufacturer in product detail page to products

Dear all,
i'm using StoreBox for my ecommerce. In product detail page i have the link to "manufacturer" that point me to a modal box with the manufacturer logo and a second link "view all products ..."

Is it possible to link "manufacturer" in product detail page directly to "view all products" bypassing the modal box?


Thanks a lot.

Hi

I'm sure it's possible, but I'm not sure how to do that. Please show me the page with an example of such thing and I'll think of something.

Hi,
I have this on my product page!
In the productdetails/default.php (into your template) I have something like this to call manufacturer:

Code: Select all

      <?php
                           $iManufacturer = $this->product;
                           JRequest::setVar('virtuemart_manufacturer_id',$iManufacturer->virtuemart_manufacturer_id,'GET');
                           $model = VmModel::getModel('manufacturer');
                           $manufacturerURL = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=category&virtuemart_manufacturer_id=' . $iManufacturer->virtuemart_manufacturer_id);
                           if ($iManufacturer->virtuemart_manufacturer_id !=0 ) {
                                 $manufacturer = $model->getManufacturer();
                                 $model->addImages($manufacturer,1);
                                 $manufacturerImage = $manufacturer->images[0]->displayMediaThumb('class="manufacturer-image-product-page"',false);
                           } ?>
                        </div>
                        <div class="product-manufacturer-information">
                              <div class="pleft">
                                 <div class="product-field-type-S">
                                    <label class="product-fields-title" ><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_DETAILS_MANUFACTURER_LBL') ?></label>
                                       
                                 </div>
                              </div>
                              <div class="manufacturer-image pright">
                                 <a title="<?php echo JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCTS_DISPLAY_MANUFACTURER_PRODUCTS') ?><?php echo $iManufacturer->mf_name; ?>" href="<?php echo $manufacturerURL; ?>"><?php echo $manufacturerImage; ?></a>
                              </div>
                        </div>
                                <div class="clear"></div>

Hope it helps!,

Regards,

Hi

Yes it may work. I have no site to check it, but solution looks ok. Thanks for sharing yoligrana

You are welcome teitbite:)
The problem in my case with this addon is when you click on the manufacturer image, it shows only the same category you are, not all products from manufacturer.
I don't know if we can fix the code

Code: Select all

 $manufacturerURL = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=category&virtuemart_manufacturer_id='

instead of "view category" to go to "view all products from manufacture" ?


Kind regards,

Hi

This is a question to VM support I'm affraid. I do not even know if such view exists
