Hi Team

is there a way to show the vendor name without link please?

Thank you

Hello,

Can you please precise where you want to display the vendor name?
Is it in a product listing? The product page? etc.

Regards,

Hi Jerome, it appears on the auction page and category listing page (see attachment)
Thank you

In Hikashop go to: Configuration >System > Advanced tab and set the Display view files:YES, Save and go to front-end.
Refresh the page and you will see something similar to my attachament. For you, in that section you will see the view name, you need to find that view in: Hikaauction > Views, filter by template you use in front-end. (you can also search the veiw by name).
Then you can edit the view and remove the <a href=... > around username.
After you finish, don't forget to set Display view files:NO

Thank you Oxido
Unfortunately, it's the only one with any reference (see attachments)

Ok, so for the first screenshot, the view is product / show_auction.php, this is what you need to find in Auction > Views.
For the second one, it will be the first view name you see in that page.
You can identify where that view belongs by the doted lines, see attachaments

Thank you

in HikaAuction - productauction / show_auction.php (see attchment)

I founf this code but can't find what to edit

Hello oxido,

Thank you for your help but HikaMarket integration is not working like that.

Regards,

Thank you Jerome

Do you have any solution please?

Hello,

HikaMarket adds the tag with the vendor name via the HikaShop "slots" system.
The data is generated in the HikaMarket product class and there is, for the moment, no setting to change how it is done.

Instead of adding a setting, I think it might be better to continue using the translation system, which is already used for the translation entry "SOLD_BY_VENDOR".
The idea would be to use another entry "SOLD_BY_VENDOR_HTML" which will define only the creation of the link ; but if you do override the translation, you could display only the vendor name...

To do so, you need to edit the file : administrator/components/com_hikamarket/classes/product.php
There, you will find the line for the generation of the vendor link during the display of a product page.

And the line for the generation of the vendor link during the display of a product listings.

The idea behind the patch is to change that generation.
Here for the product page :
For the product listing, it's nearly the same patch but it's best to put the creation of the variable $vendorLinkTpl outside the foreach...
So the three first lines must be before the foreach and the line which will create the $vendorLink variable would be:
You can already apply the modification for the product page, create the translation, and give us your feedback.

Regards,

Thank you Jerome

this time it took me a while this time to do that

Unfortunately the result of those changes is that the seller's name is not displayed anymore

Is there a way for you to check please?

Thank you

example attached

Hello,

Do you have the three lines to declare the $vendorLinkTpl variable? Did you add a translation for the key "SOLD_BY_VENDOR_HTML" or not yet?

Regards,

Yes, added translation and code portion, see screenshots attached
portion-code.jpg
and
translation.jpg

after added those:
1) The vendor name is not appearing in category page see screenshot category.jpg

2) but it is appearing wrong in the product page see screenshot product-page.jpg

I must be mistaken somewhere :pinch:

Hello,

Sorry, there was a typo introduced by a wrong copy/paste.
In your first screenshot, we can see the content When there is no multiple vendors, so the variable does not exist. The content must be used instead.

For your translations, please use the "%2$s" format to choose the second parameter instead of the first one.
The translations uses 2 parameters, the fist is the URL and the second is the vendor name.
See : www.php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php#example-3

Regards,

Thank you Jerome

I changed $vendors[$id]->vendor_name with $vendor->vendor_name

When you write
'For your translations, please use the "%2$s" format to choose the second parameter instead of the first one'

you mean

SOLD_BY_VENDOR="Seller: %s"
SOLD_BY_VENDOR_HTML=" %2$s"

if yes , it works on the product page

but still doesn't work on the category page... maybe because in /public_html/administrator/components/com_hikamarket/classes/product.php I still see some others $vendors[$id]->vendor_name ?

Hello,

I don't know.
"still doesn't work on the category page" does not explain what is the issue, so I can't perform any deduction or else.

Regards,

ok thanks anyway Jerome

Any chance you can add an option in the next release 'remove link for vendor' or something similar please?

Hello,

The patch I proposed you has been added into HIkaMarket ; so it will be include in the next release.
I will perform further tests to see if I can understand what is your "category page issue" ; or if you can provide details, it will help!

Regards,

Wow, thank you once again Jerome

that patch looks like has gone away after I updated to the latest version of Hikaauction couple of days ago

However

I managed to have it without link on the product page ... a page like demo.hikashop.com/index.php/en/hikashop/...product/4-brow-shoes

and it was not appearing on the category page... category page like demo.hikashop.com/index.php/en/hikashop/...listing/13-men-shoes

I am pretty sure it was my mistake since coding is not my thing...

Thanks again
