Hello,
I try to add Category name in Latest product list on homepage (latest.tpl) with this code (found on web), but unsuccessfully.
With "category" part of code website is broken (show blank page). Without work ok.
What is done wrong?
Thanks for any kind of help.
Code in latest.php
...
Code: Select all
$categories = $this->model_catalog_product->getCategories($result['product_id']);
if($categories){
$categories_info = $this->model_catalog_category->getCategory($categories[0]['category_id']);
$category_title = $categories_info['name'];
}else{
$category_title = '';
}
$data['products'][] = array(
'product_id' => $result['product_id'],
'thumb' => $image,
'manufacturer' => html_entity_decode($product_info['manufacturer'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'),
'manufacturers' => $this->url->link('product/manufacturer/info', 'manufacturer_id=' . $result['manufacturer_id']),
'category_title' => $category_title,
'name' => $result['name'],
'description' => utf8_substr(strip_tags(html_entity_decode($result['description'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8')), 0, $this->config->get('config_product_description_length')) . '..',
'price' => $price,
'special' => $special,
'tax' => $tax,
'rating' => $rating,
'href' => $this->url->link('product/product', 'product_id=' . $result['product_id']),
);

Followed is for demonstration purposes. In your catalog/controller/module/latest.php file,
find:
Code: Select all
$this->load->model('catalog/product');
add below:
Code: Select all
$this->load->model('catalog/category');
Then, find:
add right below:
Then, find:
Code: Select all
}
return $this->load->view('module/latest', $data);
replace with:
Code: Select all
++$i;
}
return $this->load->view('module/latest', $data);
Then, find:
add above:
Code: Select all
$products_to_categories = $this->model_catalog_product->getCategories($result['product_id']);
$category_titles = array();
$j = 0;
foreach ($products_to_categories as $category) {
$category_info = $this->model_catalog_category->getCategory($category['category_id']);
if (!empty($category_info['name'])) {
$category_titles[$j] = html_entity_decode($category_info['name'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
}
++$j;
}
Then, find:
add right below:
Code: Select all
'category_title' => (!empty($category_titles[$i]) ? $category_titles[$i] : ''),
Then, in your theme, you could use:
Code: Select all
<?php if ($product['category_title']) { ?>
<?php echo $product['category_title']; ?>
<?php } ?>
inside the product loop.

You've put 'category_title' lines twice in the array ... my instructions above only indicates to put it once.

It's not working on Opencart v2.3.0.2.
Any idea how to edit that code to make it work on newest relase on default template?
Is there any extension for that?
I was looking for that everywhere but nothing works so far.

Can you help me edit that code?
What i achieved is just a name of a first category (from couple) and no link to that category page.
What i did:
After $this->load->model('catalog/product');
Code: Select all
$this->load->model('catalog/category');
Before $data['products'][] = array(
Code: Select all
$categories = $this->model_catalog_product->getCategories($result['product_id']);
if($categories){
$categories_info = $this->model_catalog_category->getCategory($categories[0]['category_id']);
$category_title = $categories_info['name'];
}else{
$category_title = '';
}
After 'name' => $result['name'],
Code: Select all
'category_title' => $category_title,
In latest.tpl
Code: Select all
<?php echo $product['category_title']; ?>
Like i said before now i have got only first category name.
What i want to achieve is to show all categories of product with links directing to that specific categories. (same as opencartboost's
http://trial.opencartboost.com/).
I know that it's not that hard like I think but it gave me a headaches for couple of days.
Anyone?
