Anyone have any idea if this is going to be possible without massive editing? (pics included)

Thanks to the help of someone else in this forum I finally got the colors, display and short products goin good with my store. Right now in a catagory with 2 products this is how they look. Decent!

But I have a store thats in the automotive section. Most of the stores have a display format of

 

Manufacture A

product 1

product 2

product 3

Manufacture B

product 1

product 2

product 3

Im trying to setup my product_listing somehow like this and not having much luck figuring this out. If at all possible I would like to be able to display the manufacture picture, manufacture text link and then list products by price high first by manufacturer... Is this possible by just modifying the product_listing.php file or is this going to be alot more in depth?

 

-Thanks in advance!

You should be able to do all this in the admin panel. Im not 100% sure but this is how I change the way the product listing shows up.

 

Hope this helps

Hi,

 

easy editing will not do here :-) ... but as always, there are ways to steal code :-)

 

basically, what you need to do is for each query normally returned to product listing page, you have to start a loop by the manufacturer id ... display all stuff you want first (pic, extra text) and THEN call the product listing filtered by that manufacturer, as you can filter in product listing when you have enabled showing the manufacturer dropdown list from admin.

:-)
