Show product images in Joomla search component

[Trimud]

Hello,

I have spent a lot of time searching for similar topic but couldn't find anything related.

I want to show product images in Joomla's search results. I'm using standard Virtuemart - Search plugin with latest Joomla 3 and Virtuemart 3.

Can someone help me with this, please?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, to long to check and explain. See the plugin code and compare with product product module for eg. you should find  the code to add the images

[Trimud]

Added the following in template override: templates/<TEMPLATE>/html/com_search/search/default_results.php

Code: [Select]

<?php 
$imgUrl = "";

if (isset($result->product_id)) {
$product = $productModel->getProduct($result->product_id);
    $productModel->addImages($product,1);

    if (!empty($product->images[0]->file_url_thumb)) {
     $imgUrl = '/' . $product->images[0]->file_url_thumb;
    } else if (!empty($product->images[0]->file_url)) {
     $imgUrl = '/' . $product->images[0]->file_url;
    }


}
?>
Then in the same file add the following code where you want to show the image:

Code: [Select]

<?php if (!empty($imgUrl)) : ?>
<img src='<?php echo $imgUrl; ?>' />
<?php endif; ?>
