Manufacturer name on "Featured products" module and on category view

Hi,
First of all I apologize for my English.
I would like to display the manufacturer's name on the "featured products" module and category view.
Not in the manufacturer's view.
Is there any solution for this?

Well, strictly technically, it should not be a big problem, to add Manufacturers to Listings
like Featured, but for latest OC-Versions, not much comes for free, and not much yet exists.
But I found this free Extension:
---
Display Model (Product Code)
https://www.opencart.com/index.php?rout ... n_id=29980
---
and I just added some Manufacturer-related Code Lines below the MODELCode Lines.
Try it out, you cannot break anything, but since I don't use an OC v.3, I cannot test it,
Good Luck!
Ernie
PS. File removed again, since I cannot test it !

Dear Ernie,
Thanks for your help, but something wrong..
I just installed the module then, This error message was written:

ok, the error seems NOT to come from the .XML File,
but better, unzip the zip file, and rename the:
install.xml
to:
display_manufacturer.ocmod.xml
then,
install this file only, by use of the OcMod Installer, AFTER having cleaned out
the OcModification Section.
---
And then CHECK the OcMod Protocol, if it still produces smne errors.

And also make sure to clean out/disable the other Cache too, to make sure, it
will always load new cached content, after making changes in OC-3

Try this free solution for the manufacturers with categories:
viewtopic.php?f=202&t=198908&p=699952&h ... me#p699952 . You can easily adapt it with the featured product module as well.

Good for you!
I removed the ZIP File again now, since I cannot make sure, that it works.
Good Luck

Guys,
I've solved to display in the category view and the search results are also the manufacturer's name, but I can not display in the main page "featured products" module.
It works on category page:
category.php
add:
'manufacturer' => html_entity_decode($result['manufacturer'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'),
category.twig
add:
{{ product.manufacturer }}

I'm looking to do the same on the category page but instead of the manufacturer name, I would like the manufacturer image
What code do I need to add/change to display the manufacturer image instead of the manufacturer name please?
