Featured products, show model in pull down menu

[petsk]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm using featured products contribution, http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,651

 

Is there a way to show the product_model in front of the product name in the pull down list?

I can't figure it out, I've tried to add the product_model in various places but nothing shows up.

 

The code for pull down menu:

			<td class="main"><?php echo ($sInfo->products_name) ? $sInfo->products_name : tep_draw_products_pull_down('products_id', 'style="font-size:10px"', $featured_array); echo tep_draw_hidden_field('products_price', $sInfo->products_price); ?></td>

 

Any ideas? :blink: :D

it would need to be added to the function tep_draw_products_pull_down in admin/includes/functions/general.php

Thank you very much Steve! The general-file really did the trick :D

I am trying to get the model numbers to appear in the drop down too.

 

Can you possibly help me out with exactly what has to go where?

Sure, here comes...

 

Open: admin/includes/functions/general.php

 

Find this at line ~199

	$products_query = tep_db_query("select p.products_id, pd.products_name, p.products_price from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd where p.products_id = pd.products_id and pd.language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "' order by products_name");
while ($products = tep_db_fetch_array($products_query)) {
  if (!in_array($products['products_id'], $exclude)) {
	$select_string .= '<option value="' . $products['products_id'] . '">' . $products['products_name'] . ' (' . $currencies->format($products['products_price']) . ')</option>';
  }
}

 

Change to:

	$products_query = tep_db_query("select p.products_id, p.products_model, pd.products_name, p.products_price from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd where p.products_id = pd.products_id and pd.language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "' order by products_name");
while ($products = tep_db_fetch_array($products_query)) {
  if (!in_array($products['products_id'], $exclude)) {
	$select_string .= '<option value="' . $products['products_id'] . '">[' . $products['products_model'] . ']?' . $products['products_name'] . '?(' . $currencies->format($products['products_price']) . ')</option>';
  }
}

 

You can actually put almost any product information in the pulldown menu, eg stock quantity etc.

EDIT: Note that this "hack" is going to show up in every pull down menu in admin

Thank you so much!

 

Is there a way to have the drop down menu items ordered by the model number (lowest to highest)?
