I want to add "brief description" between name and price on product box and remove the rating star icon from the product box. I really appreciate if anybody can give me a instruction? like below picture:

Hi!

The template that renders that area is:
skins/default/en/items_list/product/center/grid/body-css-layout.tpl

You are particularly interested in the part:

      <div class="{getProductCellClass(product)}">
        <list name="info" type="inherited" product="{product}" />
      </div>

that actually displays product image, ratings, etc.

The <list name="info" type="inherited" product="{product}" /> code displays the content of the "itemsList.product.grid.customer.info" view list (more info about view lists http://kb.x-cart.com/display/XDD/Step+2+-+applying+design+changes#Step2-applyingdesignchanges-UnderstandingX-Cartlayoutsystem)

You can apply your change as follows:
0) Create an empty module (http://kb.x-cart.com/display/XDD/Step+1+-+creating+simplest+module)
1) In order to remove ratings, remove the modules/XC/Reviews/product.items_list.rating.tpl template from the "itemsList.product.grid.customer.info" view list (http://kb.x-cart.com/display/XDD/Step+2+-+applying+design+changes#Step2-applyingdesignchanges-Hidingtemplatesandwidgets)
2) create your template that will display brief description and insert it into the "itemsList.product.grid.customer.info" view list with 15 weight (http://kb.x-cart.com/display/XDD/Step+2+-+applying+design+changes#Step2-applyingdesignchanges-Addingnewtemplatesandwidgets)

Please, let me know if it all makes sense to you. Surely, if there are any questions, feel free to ask.

Tony.
