Question Hiding SKU

Is there anyway we can hide SKU from the product information?
There's no point having it visible to the customers.
Thanks.

Default Re: Hiding SKU

I have the box unchecked but the SKU is still there. Is there another option that is enabling it?

Yep even if you do this it still shows, as in 4.3.0 only other way is hard code and remove it. Not look into doing that, but shouldn't have to, maybe this is a bug in 4.3.0

The tick box in admin hides it from products list pages not from product details page. To hide it from there you have to edit product_details.tpl and comment out the code. It is not a bug, always been like this

Pretty Pointless then, I didn't say it is a bug. I said "Maybe" so a little misleading then, for an average user maybe x-cart needs to explain this within admin exactly what it hides and where.

And would save on post like this from the original user

Default Re: Hiding SKU

Just realised it does say "Products list" but still should point out, "will show in Product details only" like some of the other admin text, that alerts you. Then you still have to modify the search option, as there is not an option to blank out sku from search, unless modified.

Just trying to make x-cart see and improve on what I would call basic options

Yep if you read back, we are on about it does not state "Will show on Product detail page"

My whole thought though on this, is what's the point of just having "Hide form Products list" and for it to show on Product Details, pretty pointless If a store doesn't want to show this at all............

Besides it will still show as mentioned in search, there is no function in admin to disable searching by sku..
