Hiding SKU in product catalogue.
 

I want to hide the SKU on the catalogue pages and only make it appear during checkout.

Reason being, I dont want my competitors to work out my product coding structure simply from looking at my website.

is this possible?

Sure, just comment out the code for the sku wherever you don't want it to appear. On the product detail page, it is this bunch of code in customer/main/product.tpl:

<tr>
<td width="30%">{$lng.lbl_sku}</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap" id="product_code">{$product.productcode}</td>
</tr>

Hi ballinor.

When you say comment it out, do you mean just delete it?
or is there a another way which maintains the code?

You'll want to have a read through the Template Editing Guide at the top of this forum...it explains how to comment code out :)
