X-Cart forums

I have searched and have not found this answer yet.

Is it possible to have my SKU# display rather than the x-cart generated number?

My SKU# will display in product list but x-cart number shows in Detail info. I would like mine to follow the product.

Also, can the skew be displayed in the cart along with the product?

Any help is appreciated!

Sure, just change $product.productid to $product.productcode

Moving to Template Editing

I assume I change every occurrence of this code in the customer/main/product.tpl?

Still new to PHP coding!

No, you need to be careful and only change it where you want it to appear. In product.tpl, there should already be a line displaying the sku?

Ok, I love a good hunt but the potential for problems is high.
When I click on the item and it displays the product detail which includes the title bar with the product name and x-cart auto SKU# I would like mine to display.

In the Template Sticky it says that "product.tpl" displays the product details. Again I am under customer/main/product.tpl! If that is not correct can you point me in the right direction?

Is there a way to tell which ".tpl" you are working in or need to edit without having to be a proficient programer.

As far as which tpl is which, good guide here:

Ok, I am getting your point about reading more.
I changed the code as you suggested and followed the link to the thread about the most asked questions. The answer there just removed the x-cart skew all together but did not display mine.

I altered the code as you suggested and now have my sku displaying instead of the x-cart auto Sku but the item title is missing.

Now, Is there a way to keep the product title and still display my sku? Changing the code as you suggested drops the item title!
I could live with that but would prefer the title and my Sku#. like "Big Red Widget XXX-XXXX" Currently "XXX-XXXX"

I too am wondering how to have the product detail page display both Product Title AND SKU. I can get it to do either or, but not both.

Can anyone help us with us please?

Thanks,
Jeff
