How to echo the price and ID value of related products on Product Details page

(1/6) > >>

Hi,

Does anyone know how to echo different product values of the "related products" on the Product Details page?

I can see that $this->product->customfieldsRelatedProducts  points to the related products, but I don´t know how to echo specific product information  e.g. prices, product-ID and so on..

In my default.php (product details) file the following code echoes the related products:

      <?php
      foreach ($this->product->customfieldsRelatedProducts as $field){
         ?>
<div style="display:inline-block;" class="product-field product-field-type-<?php echo $field->field_type ?>" >
         <div class="product-field-display" style="width: 7em; overflow: hidden; line-height: 1.2em; max-height: 8.3em;position: relative;top: 0px; text-align: center;margin-left: 5px;
margin-right: 15px;"><?php echo $field->display ?></div>

Hi fabelmik,

If you would put this somewhere in that file:
print_r($this->product->customfieldsRelatedProducts);

It will output all the fields virtuemart is getting for you. Unfortunately, no price is included in the array of related products.
The related products are in fact just linked to a (system generated) customfield (customfield id=1) of the product.
You would have to write your own script/query to get the price of those related products from the custom_value field (which represents the virtuemart_product_id of the related product).

I would also like this... Can anyone help us write a short code for this?

Hi jefchenko,

Thanks for the answer.

I guess we have to hope for someone to help us with a usable script.
What I really want to achieve is to show price and have an "add to cart" function on each related product.

It seems noone´s answering this post, so I have now made a "Commercial jobs" request instead:
http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=105701.0

I will post the solution if or when someone applies for the job.

There is no easy answer to this. You have to override the viewer for related products and add some code in multiple places.

Find the file /components/com_virtuemart/view/productdetails/tmpl/default_relatedproducts.php
Copy it to /templates/<your template>/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/default_relatedproducts.php
That will create an override.

Now open that file and add

--- Code: ---$model = new VirtueMartModelProduct();
$calculator = calculationHelper::getInstance();
$currency = CurrencyDisplay::getInstance();
--- End code ---
after this line:

--- Code: ---defined ( '_JEXEC' ) or die ( 'Restricted access' );
--- End code ---

Then locate the line

--- Code: ---<span class="product-field-desc"><?php echo jText::_($field->custom_field_desc) ?></span>
--- End code ---

and replace it with

--- Code: ---     <span class="product-field-desc"><?php

echo jText::_($field->custom_field_desc);

$product = $model->getProductSingle($field->custom_value,false);
$price = $calculator -> getProductPrices($product);
echo $currency->priceDisplay($price['salesPriceWithDiscount']);

?></span>

--- End code ---

Not exactly a piece of cake :)
