Manufacture's Box on Homepage

[michaelmchugh]

Hi

I need to replace the 'Latest Products' Box with a similar 'Manufactures Box' on the front page.

 

Basically I want the logos of the manufactures on the front page so the customer clicks on them and all the products will be listed.

 

I need this Box instead of the 'Latest Products' Box.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

humn, not sure about a "manufactures box" that generates you a box with all existing manufacturers, but what you can do manually is edit the catalog/index.php

 

search for

<?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?>

and replace it for example with a schheme like this (you have to edit links, and image graphics:

 

<?php echo '<a href="'. tep_href_link('links-goes-in-here', ''). '" >'; ?><img src="picture-link-goes-in-here.gif" border="0" alt="Alt Desc goes in here"/></a>
<?php echo '<a href="'. tep_href_link('links-goes-in-here', ''). '" >'; ?><img src="picture-link-goes-in-here.gif" border="0" alt="Alt Desc goes in here"/></a>
<?php echo '<a href="'. tep_href_link('links-goes-in-here', ''). '" >'; ?><img src="picture-link-goes-in-here.gif" border="0" alt="Alt Desc goes in here"/></a>
<?php echo '<a href="'. tep_href_link('links-goes-in-here', ''). '" >'; ?><img src="picture-link-goes-in-here.gif" border="0" alt="Alt Desc goes in here"/></a>
<?php echo '<a href="'. tep_href_link('links-goes-in-here', ''). '" >'; ?><img src="picture-link-goes-in-here.gif" border="0" alt="Alt Desc goes in here"/></a>
<?php echo '<a href="'. tep_href_link('links-goes-in-here', ''). '" >'; ?><img src="picture-link-goes-in-here.gif" border="0" alt="Alt Desc goes in here"/></a><br>

and so on and so on ...

 

That would create you a static grid of six logos, after the <br> tag there could be the next line, etc. etc.
