I've created a module to show YouTube videos on a CMS page in Magento by pasting the videoId into a text field for each product, the video then shows on each custom CMS product page. The problem I have now is I need to pull a single image for the 'Play' button which is the logo for each product but I am not sure how to this.
I've tried creating another attribute called videothumbnail and selecting media image bot I can't see the field in the manage products section so I am a bit stuck.
This is the code that shows the YouTube video for each page. You will se that the image I currently have will show on all CMS page even if they are different products I need to assign an image to each page if possible.
<?php $_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($this->getProductId()); ?>
<?php if ($_product->getId() && $_product->getVideoid()): ?>
<ul class="list">
<h3 class="product-name">Video</h3>
<li> <a class="fancybox-video" href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/<?php echo $_product->getVideoid(); ?>">
<img src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('images/x5-play.png');?>" /></a> </li>
</ul>
<?php endif;?>
Assuming that you create a new media image called videothumbnail
By going to Admin -> Catalog -> Attribute -> Manage Attribute
Then create a new attribute of 'Media Image' for 'Catalog Input Type for Store Owner'
Then add it to a 'Manage Attribute Sets' in Admin -> Catalog -> Attribute
(you may need to do a reindex to catalog flat table)
<?php $_product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($this->getProductId()); ?>
<?php if ($_product->getId() && $_product->getVideoid()): ?>
<ul class="list">
<h3 class="product-name">X5 Mop Video</h3>
<li>
<a class="fancybox-video" href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/<?php echo $_product->getVideoid(); ?>">
$_helper = Mage::helper('catalog/output');
$_img = '<img id="image" src="' . Mage::helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'videothumbnail')->resize(410,420) . '" width="410" height="420" />';
echo $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_img, 'image');
</li>
</ul>
<?php endif;?>
For less faff, but less control, you can pull a live thumbnail from YouTube very easily if you have the video ID:
How do I get a YouTube video thumbnail from the YouTube API?
You should consider using this as a fallback for if the product has no Magento video thumbnail specified.

I'm using magento 1.9.3 and I want to display featured products in home page in an owl carousel.
I have a method in the block of my module that returns me the collection I want to show in the carousel. I call it from my template like this:
$_productCollection=$this->getFeaturedProducts();
I found a previous question in stack overflow about this: Owl Carousel - Magento Products
and following this previous question I arrived to this in my template:
<div class="owl-carousel">
<?
$products = $this->getFeaturedProducts();
foreach ($products as $_product) { // iterate through the entire collection
echo '<div class="item"><img src='.$this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'small_image')->keepFrame(false)->resize($_imgSize).'></div>'; // print the image url inside of the required Owl markup
}
?>
</div>
But the div of owl-carousel is not displayed. If I inspect the page, the div is there, and the images inside too, but nothing is displayed. If I delete the owl-carousel class I see all the images displayed in list.
I installed the extension "Responsive Owl Slider" from magento connect, and I have another owl carousel on top of page made with the admin cms that shows image slides (not products) and it's working fine. The only one that fails is the one that I'm trying to do by code.
I see that the owl-carousel class has a display: none so obviously is not displaying anything, but if I delete the display: none it shows all the images at the same time, not a carousel.
How do I display my selected products in an owl carousel?
Please try this extension
https://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/new-products-2.html
Hope it's helpful for you.
First go to the link >> https://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/83912/featured-products-on-homepage
Create all files to following answers.
Then open featured.phtml
copy and paste below code
<?php
$_helper = $this->helper('catalog/output');
$_productCollection = $this->getProductCollection();
?>
<div class="featured-products">
<ol class="featured-products-list owl-carousel" id="featured-products-list">
<?php foreach ($_productCollection as $_product): ?>
<li><img src="<?php echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'thumbnail')->resize(200) ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->escapeHtml($_product->getName()) ?>" /></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ol>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery(".owl-carousel").owlCarousel();
});
</script>
Please don't forget create attribute and assign for products.
Hi I am using TemPlaza's PinMe template with the Jomsocial community component in Joomla! 3.0.3 Stable [ Ember ]
What I am looking for a very simple solution to having the Jomsocial avatar (Profile Image) replace the PinMe image on the Pins which
uses joomla core for image and profile
Jomsocial offers this:
Use JomSocial Avatars
To acquire a path to a JomSocial Avatar, you can simply request a cUser object and call a simple getThumbAvatar function to retrieve the avatar url.
include_once JPATH_ROOT.'/components/com_community/libraries/core.php';
// Get CUser object
$user = CFactory::getUser($userid);
$avatarUrl = $user->getThumbAvatar();
echo '<img src="'.$avatarUrl.'">';
The PinMe template is coded as such:
<?php if(isset($this->s_user) && $this->s_user==1){ ?>
<div class="TzAuthor">
<?php if(isset($Pins->user_img) && !empty($Pins->user_img)){ ?>
<img class="tz_pin_img_user" src="<?php echo JUri::root().'/'.$Pins->user_img; ?>">
<?php }else{ ?>
<img class="tz_pin_img_user" src="<?php echo JUri::root().'/components /com_tz_pinboard/images/avata.jpg'?>">
<?php }?>
<div class="TzAuthorInfo">
<a class="tz_pin_name_user"
href="<?php echo Route::_(TZ_PinboardHelperRoute::getPinboardManageruserRoute($Pins->id_user)); ?>" rel="nofollow">
<?php echo $Pins->user_name; ?>
<?php if(isset($Pins->name_user_repin) && !empty($Pins->name_user_repin)){
?>
<strong class="tz_by">
<?php echo JText::_('COM_TZ_PINBOARD_MANAGERUSER_REPIN_BY'); ?>
</strong>
<?php
echo $Pins->name_user_repin;
}
?>
</a>
spoke with the PinMe people and the cost for custom code isnt worth it and the sites on my local not live
to reiterate
all I am looking for a very simple solution to having the Jomsocial avatar (Profile Image) replace the PinMe profile image on the Pins
how do i make this happen
I am new to Magento; now I am trying to develop a simple example site.
My question is this: how can we add pages to main menu?
create one static block with "Your page name"
Create new category with display mode "Static block only" and "include in navigation menu = YES" and select your cms block and save category. And see in front-end side this will be added in navigation item.
Here is the official Magento recommendation on how to do this: http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/adding-page-links-in-the-navigation-bar
To add a CMS page link to top navigation the hard way, you should override /mnt/www/x1886/app/design/frontend/default/default/template/catalog/navigation/top.phtml.
There are plenty tutorials out there about how to override files in Magento.
Change a change where I placed a comment:
<div class="header-nav-container">
<div class="header-nav">
<h4 class="no-display"><?php echo $this->__('Category Navigation:') ?></h4>
<ul id="nav">
<!-- ADD ADDITIONAL LINKS HERE -->
<?php foreach ($this->getStoreCategories() as $_category): ?>
<?php echo $this->drawItem($_category) ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('topLeftLinks') ?>
</div>
I'm working on a website. Upon clicking the product it shows all the details of it. But my client want me to show parent category of categroy of the product at top, above the image. Please help me about it. I'm a budding developer.
Try this may be help someone else.
<?php $_helper = $this->helper('catalog/output');?>
<?php $_category_detail=Mage::registry('current_category');?>
<?php $_category_detail->getName();?>
<?php $_category_detail->getId(); ?>
You can get the category data from your product object: $_product->getCategory()->getName();. You will have to edit the template at template/catalog/product/view.phtml. In the template file look for <div class="product-img-box"> and add:
<div class="product-img-box">
<h4><?php echo $_product->getCategory()->getName(); ?></h4>
<?php echo $this->getChildHtml('media') ?>
</div>
I am uploading 2 images for each product. Only 2 no more, no less.
1st image is product base image and will be displayed on product details page.
I am using following line to display this image:
$_img = '<img src="'.$this->helper('catalog/image')->init($_product, 'image')->resize(180, 300).'" alt="'.$this->htmlEscape($this->getImageLabel()).'" title="'.$this->htmlEscape($this->getImageLabel()).'" />';
echo $_helper->productAttribute($_product, $_img, 'image');
I am able to display the above image correctly.
Second image will be displayed in a pop up when a particular link is clicked. I do not want to display a gallery. Just want to display each image separately.
I think I found a way to retrieve array of images uploaded:
$productData = $_product->getData();
$secondImage = $productData['media_gallery']['images'][1];
Now, I am not sure how to display this image. I mean how to use helper, like I used for first image to make is display second image.
I've option to hardcode the complete path of image and use:
$secondImage['file'];
to display the image etc, but, I want to know if there is way, I can do it magento way ?
<?php foreach ($this->getGalleryImages() as $_image): ?>
<li>
<a href="#" onclick="popWin('<?php echo $this->getGalleryUrl($_image) ?>', 'gallery', 'scrollbars=yes,width=200,height=200,resizable=yes');return false;">
<img src="<?php echo $this->helper('catalog/image')->init($this->getProduct(), 'thumbnail', $_image->getFile())->resize(68,68); ?>" alt="<?php echo $this->htmlEscape($_image->getLabel()) ?>" title="<?php echo $this->htmlEscape($_image->getLabel()) ?>"/>
</a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
Code lifted from:
http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/4_-_themes_and_template_customization/catalog/adding_lightbox_to_magento_v2
Note exactly the answer but obviously you can remove the foreach and simply supply the array's index if you know your only going to have one file.
