Featured Products on manufacturer page

[Skriver]

Has anyone ever done this?

The ASPDNSF featured products can list those mapped products on the homepage. We are trying to set it up so that our top 20 manufacturers can have highlighted products at the top of their aspx page.

Rather than clone the manufacturer page and then manually add html to 20 different templates I was wondering if anyone knows of a quicker way? I cannot seem to find an add-on that covers this but if there is a better way I'd love to know!

Why not just modify the XML package you are using to display the manufacturer page so that it runs SQL to retrieve featured products from that manufacturer then displays them.

Or

Write a Custom XSLT extension that does this when given a manufacturer id.

I'd estimate about 1hr's work to do this plus any CSS styling needed.
