[SOLVED] PS 1.5 get manufacturer image link

[gr4devel]

Hi community .

 

Is there a good method, beside the manual construction, to get the link of the image associated to a given manufacturer?

Hiya,

 

From what I can tell, there are no existing methods for this task. Following is how 1.5.4.1 manufacturer-list.tpl prints image sources:

 

{$img_manu_dir}{$manufacturer.image|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}-medium_default.jpg

 

($manufacturer.image is equal to the manufacturer's id iff an image exists, otherwise the default image for current language)

 

 

An embarrasingly hackish solution I've used on a shop to display manufacturer logos on the product pages:

 

{capture name="manu_pic"}img/m/{$product->id_manufacturer}-medium.jpg{/capture}
{if file_exists($smarty.capture.manu_pic)}
<div id="manufacturer-logo">
 <a href="{$link->getmanufacturerLink($product->id_manufacturer, $product->link_rewrite)}">
<img src="/{$smarty.capture.manu_pic}" alt="{$product->manufacturer_name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}"/>
 </a>
</div>
{/if}  

 

Providing you're working with templates, these examples might give you some ideas, otherwise let me know

Thank you very much jgullstr .

 

I already knew this method and now I think that it remains the only one to get the manufacturer image link.

 

Btw thank you again for your interest concerning my curiosity .

Thanks a lot, jgullstr . For Prestashop 1.5.6 I used a small variation of your code:

 

{capture name="manu_pic"}img/m/{$product->id_manufacturer}-medium.jpg{/capture}

{if file_exists($smarty.capture.manu_pic)}

<div id="manufacturer-logo">

  <a href="{$link->getmanufacturerLink($product->id_manufacturer, $manufacturer.link_rewrite)}">

<img src="/{$smarty.capture.manu_pic}" alt="{$product->manufacturer_name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}"/>

  </a>

</div>

{/if}
