Display all manufacurers on one page

[MichaelEZ]

Hi,

im looking for a way to display all manufacurers on one page, well i tried edit (default) ManufacturerController.php but got only error, or blank page, or nothing changed.

What's wrong with https://<your site>/en/manufacturers? Should work without any edit.

[MichaelEZ]

well it displays only 28 (as 28 is set as product per page),  and i woud love to have all manufacturers on one page. 
Right now it looks like this :

 

 

and what i want to achiev is this (display all manufacturers automatically) :

For that you can do an override in your shop,

create a new file named : /override/classes/controller/FrontController.php

and put that code inside :

<?php

/**
 * Class FrontControllerCore.
 *
 *  adding a fix high number for manufacturer pagination so all brands are shown in one page only
 */
class FrontController extends FrontControllerCore
{

    public function pagination($totalProducts = null)
    {
        if (!static::$initialized) {
            $this->init();
        }

        // Retrieve the default number of products per page and the other available selections
        $defaultProductsPerPage = max(1, (int) Configuration::get('PS_PRODUCTS_PER_PAGE'));
		  switch ($this->php_self) {
            case 'manufacturer':
                $defaultProductsPerPage=999; // this is the fixed high number for manufacturers per page.
                break;
		  }
		
        $nArray = [$defaultProductsPerPage, $defaultProductsPerPage * 2, $defaultProductsPerPage * 5];

        if ((int) Tools::getValue('n') && (int) $totalProducts > 0) {
            $nArray[] = $totalProducts;
        }
        // Retrieve the current number of products per page (either the default, the GET parameter or the one in the cookie)
        $this->n = $defaultProductsPerPage;
        if (isset($this->context->cookie->nb_item_per_page) && in_array($this->context->cookie->nb_item_per_page, $nArray)) {
            $this->n = (int) $this->context->cookie->nb_item_per_page;
        }

        if ((int) Tools::getValue('n') && in_array((int) Tools::getValue('n'), $nArray)) {
            $this->n = (int) Tools::getValue('n');
        }

        // Retrieve the page number (either the GET parameter or the first page)
        $this->p = (int) Tools::getValue('p', 1);
        // If the parameter is not correct then redirect (do not merge with the previous line, the redirect is required in order to avoid duplicate content)
        if (!is_numeric($this->p) || $this->p < 1) {
            Tools::redirect($this->context->link->getPaginationLink(false, false, $this->n, false, 1, false));
        }

        // Remove the page parameter in order to get a clean URL for the pagination template
        $currentUrl = preg_replace('/(?:(\?)|&)p=\d+/', '$1', Tools::htmlentitiesUTF8($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']));

        if ($this->n != $defaultProductsPerPage || isset($this->context->cookie->nb_item_per_page)) {
            $this->context->cookie->nb_item_per_page = $this->n;
        }

        $pagesNb = ceil($totalProducts / (int) $this->n);
        if ($this->p > $pagesNb && $totalProducts != 0) {
            Tools::redirect($this->context->link->getPaginationLink(false, false, $this->n, false, $pagesNb, false));
        }

        $range = 2; /* how many pages around page selected */
        $start = (int) ($this->p - $range);
        if ($start < 1) {
            $start = 1;
        }

        $stop = (int) ($this->p + $range);
        if ($stop > $pagesNb) {
            $stop = (int) $pagesNb;
        }

        $this->context->smarty->assign(
            [
                'nb_products'       => $totalProducts,
                'products_per_page' => $this->n,
                'pages_nb'          => $pagesNb,
                'p'                 => $this->p,
                'n'                 => $this->n,
                'nArray'            => $nArray,
                'range'             => $range,
                'start'             => $start,
                'stop'              => $stop,
                'current_url'       => $currentUrl,
            ]
        );
    }
}

 

don't forget to delete this file after :

cache/class_index.php

and please verify that in your BO the overrides are not desactived.

 

Enjoy 🙂
