@if (ShowManufacturer && Model.Manufacturer != null)
{
<div class="branding">
<a href="@Url.Content("~/Search" + new { m = Model.Manufacturer.Id.ToString() }.ToQueryString())">
@Model.Manufacturer.Name
</a>
</div>
}

There needs to be a ? after ~/Search like ~/Search?

Also, I couldn't get the manufacturer to show until I populated it in the productsModel on the CategoryGridPage in the controller.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
When I stepped through the view, I got a value for the @Model.Manufacturer.Name
@if (ShowManufacturer && Model.Manufacturer != null)
{
<div class="branding">
<a href="@Url.Content("~/Search?" + new { m = Model.Manufacturer.Id.ToString() }.ToQueryString())">
@Model.Manufacturer.Name
</a>
</div>
}

I didn't understand what was going on, so I just took the path of least resistance and populated the manufacturer in the productsModel

The code changes you did for populating Manufacturer Name are correct.
It was not displayed in the view because ShowManufacturer will always be false.

The display was initially handled from widget settings but we hide the option as the discussion was going on about the display position.

Along with the changes in the controller, to fix the display issue you can enable to widget setting and then hide/show from the retail widget setting pop-up.

1. Open file E:\Workspace\AbleCommerce9\trunk\Website\Models\ProductModels.cs
2. Search for

Code:
[Browsable(false)]
[DisplayName("Show Product Manufacturer")]
[DefaultValue(false)]
[Description("If true manufacturer is displayed")]


3. Replace with

Code:
[Browsable(true)]
[DisplayName("Show Product Manufacturer")]
[DefaultValue(false)]
[Description("If true manufacturer is displayed")]


4. Compile the project
