$manufacturer.description in blockmanufacturer.tpl displays only in default language

[xraymutation]

It gives me headache already :/ Please help.

 

In the 'Block manufacturer' module, I have added 

{$manufacturer.description|escape:'text':'UTF-8'[spam-filter]

 to the list of manufacturers. Originally there is just manufacturers name :

{$manufacturer.name|escape:'html':'UTF-8'}

and hyperlink with href:

{$link->getmanufacturerLink($manufacturer.id_manufacturer, manufacturer.link_rewrite)|escape:'html'}

listed.

 

So, everything works fine - each manufacturer description is shown. Till language change. It always shows it in default language. Change (of language) appears anywhere else on home page but here.

Could you guys please advise?

 

Here is a link - tabs with brands are in fact the manufacturers list.

Hi,

You must edit the blockmanufacturer.php, because language are not implemented in.

In the construct function add the context:

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->name = 'blockmanufacturer';
        $this->tab = 'front_office_features';
        $this->version = '1.2.1';
		$this->author = 'PrestaShop';
		$this->need_instance = 0;

        $this->bootstrap = true;
		parent::__construct();	

		$this->displayName = $this->l('Manufacturers block');
        $this->description = $this->l('Displays a block listing product manufacturers and/or brands.');
		$this->ps_versions_compliancy = array('min' => '1.6', 'max' => _PS_VERSION_);
		$this->context = Context::getContext();
    }

and in the public function hookLeftColumn add the context language:

	public function hookLeftColumn($params)
	{
		if (!$this->isCached('blockmanufacturer.tpl', $this->getCacheId()))
		{
			$manufacturers = Manufacturer::getManufacturers(false, $this->context->language->id);
			foreach ($manufacturers as &$manufacturer)
			{
				$manufacturer['image'] = $this->context->language->iso_code.'-default';
				if (file_exists(_PS_MANU_IMG_DIR_.$manufacturer['id_manufacturer'].'-'.ImageType::getFormatedName('medium').'.jpg'))
					$manufacturer['image'] = $manufacturer['id_manufacturer'];
			}

			$this->smarty->assign(array(
				'manufacturers' => $manufacturers,
				'text_list' => Configuration::get('MANUFACTURER_DISPLAY_TEXT'),
				'text_list_nb' => Configuration::get('MANUFACTURER_DISPLAY_TEXT_NB'),
				'form_list' => Configuration::get('MANUFACTURER_DISPLAY_FORM'),
				'display_link_manufacturer' => Configuration::get('PS_DISPLAY_SUPPLIERS'),
			));
		}
		return $this->display(__FILE__, 'blockmanufacturer.tpl', $this->getCacheId());
	}

Enjoy !

It works like a charm! Thanks for instant response. Anyone who will get here in the future - do not forget to reset the module after PHP file change. 

Thanks Aolia once again!
