Tags block in product page

[diana13]

I want to display the tags block in the product page, under the description. I've tried to translate the tags module in Product footer hook, but it didn't display. I've tried also in HOOK_PRODUCT_TAB_CONTENT but it says that it is already there. In what hook shoud I translate it?

Oh, and I want this block to display only the specific product's tags in which page is displayed.

Hmmm, nobody?

I saw there is a function in classes/Tag.php called getProductTags($id_product)

static public function getProductTags($id_product)
   {
        if (!$tmp = Db::getInstance()->ExecuteS('
       SELECT t.`id_lang`, t.`name` 
       FROM '._DB_PREFIX_.'tag t 
       LEFT JOIN '._DB_PREFIX_.'product_tag pt ON (pt.id_tag = t.id_tag) 
       WHERE pt.`id_product`='.intval($id_product)))
            return false;
        $result = array();
        foreach ($tmp AS $tag)
            $result[$tag['id_lang']][] = $tag['name'];
        return $result;
    }

but from what I have seen, it isn't used anywhere.

So, please, how can I use this function to display the tags related to a product on the product footer's page?

Hey have you figured this out? Looking to do the same thing!!!

The tags block will not display on the product page because it was not designed to be placed there. You must add the following code to modules/blocktags/blocktags.php before the last }:

function hookProductFooter($params)
{
   return $this->hookLeftColumn($params);    
}

Then you can transplant the tags module into the Product footer hook and it will display the same way as it does when it placed in a column. You will need to do more work to make it look good in that position.

Hi Rocky / All,

Thanks a lot for your inputs. I want to add tags in product-list.tpl below the short product description. Could you advise me, which hook i need to use. I am able to display tags in product footer but i need it on product-list.tpl .


Thanks in advance

Regards

Unfortunately, there is no hook on the product listings. You'd have to create your own one and then add the module to it. There is a tutorial here on the forums somewhere that describes how to create a hook.

Hi Rocky,

Thanks a lot. I have created new hook and tried to place in product-list.tpl but nothing happens.. Hook is not working at all in product-list.tpl.

Please share any workaround

Thanks a lot

Did you modify category.php, search.php and best-sales.php and pass in the hook before the $smarty->display?

$smarty->assign('HOOK_NAME', Module::hookExec('name'));

Change NAME to the name of your hook.

Hi,

I am also having this problem!

I have managed to display the tags block in the product footer, but the main problem is that all the tags I have created are showing up instead of the ones that I have just added to a specific product.

There must be a simple solution for this what I am missing!

Its driving me crazy

Thanks in advance..

anyone got any ideas?
