Displaying product manufacturer information

You can assign a manufacturer to each product in your catalog. The manufacturer PHP object (Shop_Manufacturer) is accessible through the $manufacturer field of the Shop_Product class (the $product variable). To keep the product page code clean, it is recommended to create a separate partial for displaying products manufacturer information. The following code outputs all manufacturer details. 

<? if ($product->manufacturer): ?>
  <h4>Manufacturer</h4>
  <p>
     <?= h($product->manufacturer->name) ?>
  </p>
  <?= $product->manufacturer->description ?>

  <img src="<?= h($product->manufacturer->logo_url(100, 'auto')) ?>"/>

  <p>Address: <?= h($product->manufacturer->address) ?><br/>
    City: <?= h($product->manufacturer->city) ?><br/>
    ZIP: <?= h($product->manufacturer->zip) ?><br/>
    Phone: <?= h($product->manufacturer->phone) ?><br/>
    Fax: <?= h($product->manufacturer->fax) ?><br/>
    Country: <?= h($product->manufacturer->columnValue('country')) ?><br/>
    State: <?= h($product->manufacturer->columnValue('state')) ?><br/>
    Email: <?= h($product->manufacturer->email) ?><br/>
    Website: <?= h($product->manufacturer->url) ?>
  </p>
<? endif ?>

Now you can render the partial on the product page. Note that we named the manufacturer partial shop:manufacturer, but of course you can use any name.

<? $this->render_partial('shop:manufacturer') ?>
