Hello,
Is any possibility for Brand / Manufacturer name to be displayed in products list (latest.tpl) on homepage and product category list.

I`m not really familiar with OC and PHP. Any kind of help will be appreciated.

Example in attachment.

Thanks!

Welcome to Opencart forum.

In catalog/controller/module/latest.php file,

find:

Code: Select all

$data['products'][] = array(

add above:

Code: Select all

$product_info = $this->model_catalog_product->getProduct($result['product_id']);

Then, find:

Code: Select all

'thumb'       => $image,

add below:

Code: Select all

'manufacturer'     => html_entity_decode($product_info['manufacturer'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'),

Then, in your catalog/view/theme/<your_theme>/template/module/latest.tpl file,

you can use:

Code: Select all

<?php echo $product['manufacturer']; ?>

wherever you see fit.

Note: The demonstration above is only for demonstration purposes since Opencart does not recommend to alter core files. I would suggest to read: http://docs.opencart.com for more information. Also, you can visit: http://www.vqmod.com to use XML files and also OCMod extensions usable from the admin - > extensions - > installer and extensions page.

Dedication and passion goes to those who are able to push and merge a project.
