List suppliers Logos in center part of page

[mohsart]

I'd like to either modify the suppliers block (should be less work?) or create a new module:

 

For my 1.5.2 shop, I'm not reselling items, so no products are associated with any suppliers - I buy rope, wood, canvas etc and make things...

 

What I'd like to have is a list of logos between the featured products and the footer. Clicking a logo should open up the corresponding supplier page with address etc.

 

There are a couple of problems

• The default suppliers block is not working properly
  
• How do I insert the logo (what variable do I use, $supplier.image seems to be incorrect)
  
• How do I create a new hook in the center part of the page?
  

Thanks,

Good Morning,

 

Have a look at this, you may have to modify it a bit but it does work

Hope this helps

There is a module for showing manufacturers.

Check here: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/index.php?/topic/203366-module-man-carousel-ps14-ps15

 

You could use it for your purpose. IF you want to mod the code to make it work with suppliers, make sure you get approval from the module submitter as he is particular about that!

Sorry, but isn't that's all about categories? I see no mentioning of e.g. suppliers' logos./

Yes I know but if you had the suppliers as a category

[mohsart]

The manufaturers module just removed the footer, I'll keep an eye on it though.

Hmm, suppliers in a category, sounds like it'd involve more modifications than need be, I'll keep it in mind if all else fails

Found out code for logo at least

{$img_sup_dir}{$supplier.id_supplier|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}-large_default.jpg

code for supplier id is:

 

{$link->getsupplierLink($supplier.id_supplier, $supplier.link_rewrite)}

[innocuous]

Any idea how we can show all suppliers in one page?

[mohsart]

code for supplier id is:

 

{$link->getsupplierLink($supplier.id_supplier, $supplier.link_rewrite)}

Not sure what you mean, that's the code in the module, but it directs to the list of items supplied by the supplier, not a page with address etc which is what I want.

Got the logos in place instead of the names, but I cannot seem to find the correct css to fix the spacing, see http://mohsart.se/handkraft/index.php

(I may be reconsidering the placement and keep the block on the left, if I can fix all issues with it)

Edit: Fixed the spacing by using .jpg instead of -large_default.jpg

Where can I find where $nbSuppliers and $suppliers_list are defined/made available (or should be) for themes/supplier-list.tpl

They are 0 and undefines respectively for me.

Does the suppliers module work for anyone?

 

Edit: And $supplier->description in themes/supplier.tpl (undefined for me)

Edit 2: Wrong, $supplier->description works

Yes, this gets list of items for a supplier. I'll see if I can get code for supplier information
