Hi,

I would like to display 4 featured Vendors in a row with 4 columns.

I was hoping to do this manually by adding a single Vendor shortcode in each column but cannot find a shortcode for this. I have tried [wcmp_vendorslist vendor=”34″ per_page=”4″ columns=”4″] but it does not work. Is there a way to display only 1 vendor?

A better solution would be if there was a way to mark a Vendor as ‘Featured’ and then this would automatically display those Vendors in my Vendors List. Is this possible?

…by Featured Vendor I mean I would like to mark 4 Vendors as featured for the month and display them on the Home Page. I need to seperate 4 selected vendors from the Vendors List. How can I do that. Similar to marking a product as featured.

Hello,

As per your requirement, you have to do some good amount of custom coding at your end.

Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance.

…if marking a vendor as featured is not possible without custom coding then how can I display a single Vendor by the vendor ID?

I have tried [wcmp_vendorslist vendor=”34″ per_page=”1″ columns=”1″] but it does not work.
Is there a way to display only 1 vendor?

At present we have only short code to add the vendor list as you can see from here : https://multivendorx.com/list-of-shortcodes/

You have to make a short code at your end to add this functionality as mentioned by you.

Hi,
I need to have 4 stores on our homepage too, just like DragNfLy.

I you cannot help us with a rapid solution, like create yourself a new shortcode, can you tell me how to create this new shortcode myself?
What I mean is, I want to know each php files I have to modify.

I tryed myself, but always something go wrong… and I loosing my mind 😉

Thank you
Claire

Extra information of what I have done:
I tweaked the vendor_lists.php page to have my 4 featured stores on home page. See: https://maringouinsbleus.com/

But with this way, I am not able to create an all-stores page… and I need it too.

If you are able to tell me how to call vendor_lists.php page from all-stores page AND call vendor_lists-home.php from homepage, even if it is without creating a new shortcode: I would be so happy 😀

@Claire, can you inform us how did you make some vendors as featured vendors?

[Sylvain Lavoie]

Hi Moumita,
I hardcoded the vendor_lists.php, so I call the [wcmp_vendorslist] shortcode in homepage.

Obviously, the vendor_lists.php is in the child-theme folder to make it works. If I delete my tweaked page, all stores appearing in homepage section… and I want all stores in another page (all-stores.php) and keep the 4 features stores on home page. To do that, I have to know how to create another shortcode OR create another way to make it works for the homepage…

@Claire, our team will look into this. Kindly provide them some time.

@Claire, First, you have to create a different shortcode like wcmp_vendor_list_new. You can check a reference to create a new shortcode here —- https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/add_shortcode/. You can also check our code as a reference —- https://github.com/wcmarketplace/dc-woocommerce-multi-vendor/blob/master/classes/class-wcmp-shortcode.php#L19

You mainly try to change on listing part, So just copy every part as it is what we used in the wcmp_vendorlist shortcode. Then change yours. Mostly you have to change the content-vendor.php file ( as per our coding structure ). And please do all your changes in your custom plugin or child theme.

[Sylvain Lavoie]

Thank you, I will try it and give you a feedback,
Kindly
