Hi,

Am using OpenCart v1.5.1. I want to display product attributes on both the category and manufacturer pages. Have searched but cannot find a module or solution for this.

Can anyone help?

Have copied code below from product.tpl and put into category.tpl.

Code: Select all

<?php foreach ($attribute_groups as $attribute_group) { ?>
      <?php echo $attribute_group['name']; ?><br> <?php foreach ($attribute_group['attribute'] as $attribute) { ?>
      <?php echo $attribute['name']; ?>: <?php echo $attribute['text']; ?>
      <?php } ?>
      <?php } ?>

Also added

Code: Select all

$this->data['attribute_groups'] = $this->model_catalog_product->getProductAttributes($this->request->get['product_id']);

to category.php

My understanding of PHP is not great so am just looking for the relevant code in product.php and product.tpl to transfer to category.php and category.tpl, however am not having much luck.

Anybody know if this is easy to do? I don't mind paying someone to achieve this.

Cheers,

Rob

Hi,

Im on the newest version but here is something to help you get on your way.

category/controller/product/category.php something like line 187
replace this

Code: Select all

$this->data['products'][] = array(
					'product_id'  => $result['product_id'],
					'thumb'       => $image,
					'name'        => $result['name'],
					'description' => mb_substr(strip_tags(html_entity_decode($result['description'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8')), 0, 100) . '..',
					'price'       => $price,
					'special'     => $special,
					'tax'         => $tax,
					'rating'      => $result['rating'],
					'reviews'     => sprintf($this->language->get('text_reviews'), (int)$result['reviews']),
					'href'        => $this->url->link('product/product', 'path=' . $this->request->get['path'] . '&product_id=' . $result['product_id'])
				);

replace with this

Code: Select all

$this->data['products'][] = array(
					'product_id'  => $result['product_id'],
					'thumb'       => $image,
					'name'        => $result['name'],
					'description' => mb_substr(strip_tags(html_entity_decode($result['description'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8')), 0, 100) . '..',
					'price'       => $price,
					'special'     => $special,
					'tax'         => $tax,
					'rating'      => $result['rating'],
					'reviews'     => sprintf($this->language->get('text_reviews'), (int)$result['reviews']),
					'href'        => $this->url->link('product/product', 'path=' . $this->request->get['path'] . '&product_id=' . $result['product_id']),
					'attribute_groups'   => $this->model_catalog_product->getProductAttributes($result['product_id'])
				);

catalog/view/theme/your_theme/template/product/category.tpl paste somewhere inside the foreach ($products as $product) loop the best place to inject would be between line 75 and 76 of original tpl file

Code: Select all

<?php if ($product['attribute_groups']) { ?>
        <table class="attribute">
          <?php foreach ($product['attribute_groups'] as $attribute_group) { ?>
          <thead>
            <tr>
              <td colspan="2"><?php echo $attribute_group['name']; ?></td>
            </tr>
          </thead>
          <tbody>
            <?php foreach ($attribute_group['attribute'] as $attribute) { ?>
            <tr>
              <td><?php echo $attribute['name']; ?></td>
              <td><?php echo $attribute['text']; ?></td>
            </tr>
            <?php } ?>
          </tbody>
          <?php } ?>
        </table>
   <?php } ?>

If you need more help pm me but it will coast you im a programmer

The code works for v1.5.0, many thanks wernerrenrew.

But is there a way to limit the number of attributes displayed in category page?

All the best!

Thanks Bro! - This worked like a Charm!!

I was working for one of my client and your code saved my ASS

Those who have complained that code did not work, please copy paste it correctly without spaces and when you add it on category.php template make sure you add it after this tag to make it work!

Code: Select all

<?php foreach ($products as $product) { ?>

Thx man!

Hi, it works but I have a problem with the languages. After an upload in English the attributes are displayed at all languages. And I am using the correct language ID. Please advise.

hi raj,
Is it possible that I do not have this code: ]<?php foreach ($products as $product) { ?>
in my category.php?

I have copied the attribute code in the tpl. Now I have added the attribute code below: $this->data['products'][] = array(
But that does not work. It would be fantastic to receive any tips regarding this as it costs me some terrible long nights

Thanks for your advise, Kind regards, Remco

Thanks Werner for posting this code modification!

I am using OpenCart v1.5.1.3 and I was able to successfully display attributes on the category page using the code changes Werner provided above. I did run into one issue when modifying the code on the category.tpl. When I first pasted the code Werner provided for the category.tpl, I commented out this line

Code: Select all

<div class="description"><?php echo $product['description']; ?></div>

I then added the attributes code (provided by werner) below the commented out description code. At first, this caused the description on the category page to be displayed with a value of "null" and did not display the attributes. I then moved the attributes code so it was within the description <div> tags which fixed the problem and the attributes were displayed correctly on the category page. Below is the placement of the code modification for the category.tpl that worked for me:

Code: Select all

      <div class="description"><!--<?php echo $product['description']; ?>-->
        <?php if ($product['attribute_groups']) { ?>
        <table class="cat-attributes">
          <?php foreach ($product['attribute_groups'] as $attribute_group) { ?>
          
          <tbody>
            <?php foreach ($attribute_group['attribute'] as $attribute) { ?>
            <tr>
              <td><?php echo $attribute['name']; ?>:</td>
              <td><?php echo $attribute['text']; ?></td>
            </tr>
            <?php } ?>
          </tbody>
          <?php } ?>
        </table>
   <?php } ?> </div>

Note that the category.tpl code Werner provided is within the description <div> tags.

Since you figured out the syntax for attributes, is there a way to get specific fields from the product's Data tab to display in the product category view?

http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 86#p387486

Posted: **Wed Aug 07, 2013 4:38 am**

Can some one be able to develop the below requirement.

Options of the product should be displayed in the category view.

upon selecting the option of product -displayed in category view the price should be updated for that options and should be added to cart.

I hope this above requirement can be only developed by adding AJAX code.

<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>

</div>

i would greatly appreciate if someone know how to fix this . thanks

Did you manage to resolve your issue with a single attribute?

Posted: **Thu Jan 01, 2015 9:47 pm**

I need two single attributes to show up on category page on frontend on 2.0.1.1... Any one got some tips for this?

Posted: **Thu Jan 08, 2015 8:10 pm**

@stefani @cod3gen did you guys figure out how to display individual attributes?
Anyone know how to do this on version 1.5.6.4?

Posted: **Fri Feb 14, 2020 11:29 pm**

Hey Guys,
Here's a little fix for all of you using Opencart 3.0.3.2. I found that the fix was just slightly different then these instructions.

1) Modify the catalog/controller/product/category.php exactly as the post describes with one small difference - you will find it under

Code: Select all

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

add a comma at the end of the last line in the array or you will get a syntax error (should be line 206). On the next line add

Code: Select all

'attribute_groups'   => $this->model_catalog_product->getProductAttributes($result['product_id'])

2) Open up catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/category.twig file. cntl-f and search for

Code: Select all

<p>{{ product.description }}</p>

3) If you want to replace the description then delete <p>{{ product.description }}</p> and add the following in it's place. If you want to see the description followed by the attributes then add the following on the next line. You will notice that the syntax is slightly different than the original post.

Code: Select all

{% if product.attribute_groups %}
                <table class="attribute">
                    {% for attribute_group in product.attribute_groups %}
                    <thead>
                      <tr>
                        <td colspan="2"><strong>{{ attribute_group.name }}</strong></td>
                      </tr>
                    </thead>
                    <tbody>
                    {% for attribute in attribute_group.attribute %}
                    <tr>
						          <td>{{ attribute.name }}</td>
                  		<td>{{ attribute.text }}</td>
                    </tr>
                    {% endfor %}
                     </tbody>
                    {% endfor %}
                </table>
				        {% endif %}
