Add vendor name to listing block

[paperboy]

Hello,

I have been reviewed some forum entries like:

Add Vendor Attribute to listing block

I have a vendor attribute called “Company Name.” I would like to add this attribute to the listings page for each listing under the Title and above the address. Or I would like to have it added in the Title. (i.e. XYZ Bank - Open Free Account) where the user types in “Open Free Account” but the “XYZ Bank” (Company Name) is defaulted. I can see that %listing% and %vendor% tokens are an option in the setting but I don’t know how they work. Please advise. Thank you. [image]

But it’s not clear for me the possibility to add or not the vender in the listings block. I am trying to add some code snippet with the variable “$listing->get_user__id()”, but I can’t.

Is it possible to do it with a code snippet similar to this one?

add_filter('hivepress/v1/templates/listing_view_block', function( $template ) {
	return hivepress()->helper->merge_trees($template,	[
				'blocks' => [
					'listing_content' => [
						'blocks' => [
							'custom_text' => [
								'type' => 'content',
								'content' => "$listing->get_user__id()",
								'order' => 15,
							]
						]
					],
				],
			]
		);
	}
);

Thanks and regards,

Hi,

Please provide more details. Do you need to add a vendor name to the listing block? Also, what kind of theme do you use?

Hi,

Yes, I would like to add a vendor name to the listing block. I am trying to get the vendor from the listing and doing the same procedure that is done in this tutorial video which tells the addition of a new button:

# Customizing Templates I HivePress Developer Docs

Theme is HivePress,

Thanks and regards!

Hi!

I finally solved overwritting code in listing-image.php with the following sentence:

<?php echo "Vendor: "; $user = $listing->get_user(); echo $user->get_display_name(); ?>

I don’t know if it is possible doing this with code snippet which is more elegant.

Thanks and best regards,

Hi,

To extract an object from the listing context, you need to use the same hook, but add /blocks at the end, then the second argument of the function is a template, and you can $template->get_context('listing'), and then $listing->get_vendor__name().

Hi!

I finally solved like this:

add_filter(
	'hivepress/v1/templates/listing_view_block/blocks',
	function( $blocks, $template ) {
		$listing = $template->get_context('listing');
		
		if($listing && $listing->get_vendor__name()){
			$blocks = hivepress()->helper->merge_trees(
					[ 'blocks' => $blocks ],
					[
						'blocks' => [
							'listing_details_primary' => [
								'blocks' => [
									'custom_listing_block_description' => [
										'type'    => 'content',
										'content' => '<p style="font-size: 10px;">'.esc_html($listing->get_vendor__name()).'</p>',
										'_order'  => 6,
									],
								],
							],
						],
				]
				)['blocks'];
		}
		
		return $blocks;
	},
	1000,
	2
);

Thanks and best regards,

I have been wanting to do the same! thanks @paperboy

I have upgraded the idea to make the links lead to the vendor profile.

<?php
add_filter(
    'hivepress/v1/templates/listing_view_block/blocks',
    function( $blocks, $template ) {
        $listing = $template->get_context('listing');
        
        if ($listing && $listing->get_vendor()) {
            $vendor = $listing->get_vendor();
            $vendor_slug = $vendor->get_slug();

            // Construct the vendor profile URL using the slug
            $vendor_url = 'https://yousite.com/vendor/' . $vendor_slug . '/';

            $blocks = hivepress()->helper->merge_trees(
                    [ 'blocks' => $blocks ],
                    [
                        'blocks' => [
                            'listing_details_primary' => [
                                'blocks' => [
                                    'custom_listing_block_description' => [
                                        'type'    => 'content',
                                        'content' => '<p style="font-size: 14px;"><a href="' . esc_url($vendor_url) . '">' . esc_html($vendor->get_name()) . '</a></p>',
                                        '_order'  => 6,
                                    ],
                                ],
                            ],
                        ],
                ]
                )['blocks'];
        }
        
        return $blocks;
    },
    1000,
    2
);

Thinking about adding the seller’s photo to make the listings more personal

It looks great! @thefourcraft

I was able to change the listing image to the category image like this:

Is it possible to force the listings take image from its upper category?

Hi! I finally success to do it. Looking at the code I found a method to obtain the array of categories and I take the first one. So finally I have change the original code line: <img src="<?php echo esc_url( hivepress()->get_url() . '/assets/images/placeholders/image-landscape.svg' ); ?>" alt="<?php echo esc_attr( $listing->get_title() ); ?>" loading="lazy"> With this: <?php foreach ( $listing->get_categories() as $category ) : ?> <img src="<?php echo esc_url( $category->get_image__url( 'h…

I think you could modify the child template in the same way, at the beginning or the end of the listing.
