Please help I have searched now for a few hours and can not find a way to add the product dimensions on the product page for my clients to see the product dimensions (L x W x H) I need to display this in the product page if a client view a product, look at this link http://www.bonsaiart.co.za/index.php?ro ... uct_id=134 you notice you can not see any dimensions PLEASE help.
Your site is not running at the moment however: Length, Width and Height may be set for a Product but as far as I know, these are never displayed anywhere, they are simply used to calculate shipping in some shipping options.
If you want to show them, you will have to add the fields to product.tpl or include the dimensions in the Product Description.

I had the same problem and fixed it by doing the following
/catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl
Add this code at around line 35 to add a new table row for the dimensions:
/catalog/controller/product/product.php
Fine this line:
Add this below:
/catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl
Add this code at around line 35 to add a new table row for the dimensions:
Code: Select all
<tr>
<td><strong>Size (L x W x H) cm</strong></td>
<td><?php echo $length . " x " . $width . " x " . $height; ?></td>
</tr>Fine this line:
Code: Select all
$this->data['heading_title'] = $product_info['name'];Code: Select all
$this->data['length'] = $product_info['length'];
$this->data['width'] = $product_info['width'];
$this->data['height'] = $product_info['height'];VQMod version ready so not to override core files regarding the controller modifications.

It is kind of odd that your last request was added into the compare products but not to the product details itself ... modifications above completed. You may now use: the $product['width'], $product['height'], $product['weight'] and $product['length'] from product.tpl during the loop call.

As specified above, all fours must be used with: $product['length'], $product['width'], $product['height'] and $product['weight'] inside the loop call so, in your case, it would be:
Code: Select all
<?php echo $product['length'] . " x " . $product['width'] . " x " . $product['height']; ?>

straightlight. thanks for all that help! no success and i am guessing theres is something going on with the files permissions in vqcache folder. i cannot change files permissions in that folder to 777. all files in that vqache folder are chmod 644.
