forum search broken or sh*t so forced to ask...
 

bloody search doesn't work at all anymore :evil:

This is a cinch i know but i've completely forgotten how to do it.
Could someone help me out please?

In the main product detail page, by default, X-Cart displays the product number (ie #29) after the product title in the dialog area...

How do you remove this?

One of the most annoying things in the default installation of X-Cart! :) Here you go....in product.tpl, change this:


to this:

Thanks Balinor.

Did you get anywhere with convincing rrf to ditch phpBB yet? This thing is such a pain

I wish. Best thing you can do is use 'and' statements to search with. Like 'product and title'

product ID info
 

Balinor,
thanks for the insight on the product ID. I will have to wait to see the result as I am having server issues. I am sure it will be great! Thanks again. Also, I spent 3 hrs. searching the forum on this topic...the search filter isn't the best. Oh well...

Yea, the search sucks :) Be sure to use 'and'...for example...if you are looking for "product number", use this in the search box:

product and number

It will definitely help!

product ID
 

Balinor, thanks for the tips.

worth remembering this.

work the same in 4.0?
 

I did what you said and the numbers stayed. I got some weird ELSE thing looks sort of like what you said to modify but no matter what, the numbers after the product name stay.

Try it again, the code I posted works, you must have added or deleted something you shouldn't have.

The search engine can choose 2 options:
1.Search for any terms or use query as entered
2. Search for all terms
By defult the first one is chosen, I think x-cart can set the 2nd one chosen.

thanks for that

The search function is also highly compromised which is what I was getting at.

I'd like to plug in the product sku where the xcart product id is - is it as simple as changing


to

Worked like a charm. :D

Odd that that would be the default way to display...I've never had a client ask me to put a product ID number next to the product name.

No matter...gone now! :)
