By default X-Cart 5 shows all product weights and inventory quantities. I would like to hide this from the storefront. Anyone know how this can be done? Is there a module or somewhere in the template files I can hide the code that displays these values?

there may be a better way, but this worked for me

to hide the weight, using custom skins module

copy skins\default\en\product\details\common_attributes \common.product-attributes.weight.tpl

to skins\custom_skin\default\en\product\details\commo n_attributes\common.product-attributes.weight.tpl

and comment out the template code

{* 
<li IF="!getWeight()=0">
  <div><strong>{t(#Weight#)}</strong></div>
  <span>{formatWeight(getWeight())}</span>
</li>
*}

I'm not using inventory, so I'd guess for inventory maybe do the same with this template

skins\default\en\product\details\parts\common.stoc k.tpl

Thank you. I was able to hide the product quantities through the template files.

You can also do it with custom css in the back of xcart with

/* Hide quantity available */
.product-items-available {
display: none;
}
/* Hide weight in check out */
.item-weight {
display: none;
}

/* Hide weight & SKU in item description */
.product-details-tabs {
display: none;
}

This way you don't have to modify any files, which makes upgrading a little easier.

Hanypa,

Your way works, but that hides the product description too. I'm interersted in only hiding the Weight & SKU.

Perhaps a combination of Custom Skin and your CSS?

Or is there a way to build a Module to do this?

Try this instead:

/* Hide weight & SKU in item description */
.extra-fields {
    display: none;
}

There is no need in editing templats.
Just add this to 'Custom CSS':

.product-details .extra-fields {
  display: none;
}

This did not work for me with version 5.2.13.

Also, the weight also appears in the cart, and I'd like to hide it there as well. Any idea how to do that?

Idk what to tell you, I just upgraded the site and mine is working fine.

It works now. Not sure what was the problem. But the shopping cart still shows weight. How do I hide it from there as well?
