Hello,
I have a website with Joomla 2.5.14 and Virtuemart 2.0.24.

I upgraded my virtuemart version from 2.0.10 to 2.0.24. Everything works perfect. I found that, on the product details page, the manufacturer link opens a popup which shows category name, image and description with a link to view all products. When i click on that link, it does not show manufacturer description on the page where it shows all products under selected manufacturer. Can you please tell me how can i show manufacturer description on that page?

I found that manufacture page with product list uses default category template set in vm configuration. But it is not showing description at the place where it displays category description on category pages.

So, please help me to show manufacturer description on product list page.

You could find on forum details if you would try forum search button and query like "manufacturer description".

I searched for it and found helpful post. Thank you Maxim.

I resolved it by adding this code on category template file (/com_virtuemart/views/category/tmpl/default.php):

<?php
$jinput 
JFactory::getApplication()->input;
 
$trigger="virtuemart_manufacturer_id";
 
$mid $jinput->get->get($trigger);
 if (!empty(
$mid))
{
   echo 
$this->products[0]->mf_desc;
}
?>
