Compare the products in manufacturer.tpl

[Zmey05]

Hi guys,

 

I'd like to add the comparison feature to the manufacturer's pages. Currently it's active only on the categories pages. I've tried by adding these lines to the manufacturer.tpl:

 

{include file="$tpl_dir./product-compare.tpl"}
   {include file="$tpl_dir./product-sort.tpl"}
   {include file="$tpl_dir./product-list.tpl" products=$products}
   {include file="$tpl_dir./product-compare.tpl"}
   {include file="$tpl_dir./pagination.tpl"}

 

The sort function works just fine, but the comparison buttons and the check box don't appear at all. Obviously something else needs to be edited, but I have no idea what. I will appreciate very much if someone helps me here.

I have the same issue!

I would like to add the compare function to

1) Manufacturers page

2) 'View All Products' page

 

if anyone knows how, please let us know!

 

I believe something needs to be added in the controller??

 

 

Thanks in advance

Add these lines to file: /controllers/front/ManufacturerController.php  in function initContent():
 

if (isset($this->context->cookie->id_compare))
  $this->context->smarty->assign('compareProducts', CompareProduct::getCompareProducts((int)$this->context->cookie->id_compare));

this code is not good for PS 1.4 'cause you can't use $this->context

please, what's the correct method for PS 1.4? thanks
