-- Joomla version -- : 3.2.1

Is there a way to get badges to display based on the manufacturer rather than the product category? It seems a shame to have to replicate all of the manufacturers into product categories just for this.

Hi,

Please edit the file "administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/badge.php" and replace

		$categoryClass = hikashop_get('class.category');
		$productClass = hikashop_get('class.product');
		$loadedCategories = $productClass->getCategories($product_id);

		$categories = array(
			'originals' => array(),
			'parents' => array()
		);
		$categoryClass = hikashop_get('class.category');
		$productClass = hikashop_get('class.product');
		$loadedCategories = $productClass->getCategories($product_id);

		if(isset($row->main->product_manufacturer_id))
			$categories['originals'][$row->main->product_manufacturer_id] = $row->main->product_manufacturer_id;
		if(isset($row->product_manufacturer_id))
			$categories['originals'][$row->product_manufacturer_id] = $row->product_manufacturer_id;

It will add the support for manufacturers for the badges.

In the badge configuration, instead of selecting a product category, you can select the target manufacturer in the "root / brand" part.

Regards,

PS : This modification will be include in the next HikaShop release.

Jerome, that is brilliant. I am constantly amazed at the speed and quality of response I get from you guys. If I had posted anything like this on the Virtuemart forum it would have taken at least a week to get a response and the response would have been along the lines that my client shouldn't want to do that.

For the record, this is for one of two projects I currently have underway replacing other Joomla shopping carts (Virtuemart and Tienda) with Hikashop and my clients are loving it.
