How to show product code on page of products

General General Questions
1

I know there is a place to do it but I cant find it.

How do I show the product code when a customer opens a category and has all the products listed?



Ive looked all over the “administrator” and “settings” tabs.



I want the codes listed under the images.

Guess you didn't find a solution for this (looking at your store, your just adding the SKU to the product names - no ideal). I'll dig into editing the templates now and [try to] get back with a solution.

Hmmm - fixed ( see http://jd2.com.au/ )

“Design” > “Themes” and then “Template editor” on the theme you want to change.



Then use the files menu to navigate to the 'product_list_templates' directory ( {theme_name} / templates / blocks / product_list_templates / ) and then change 'show_sku' to 'true' in both 'products_without_options.tpl' and 'short_list.tpl'. Saving changes on both.



Next, edit 'products_multicolumns.tpl' and add 'show_sku=true' to the list of options and save the change.



Now you need to change the view to output the code on this last layout option. Edit '{theme_name} / templates / blocks / list_templates / grid_list.tpl' and add the following code somewhere in the 'product-title-wrap' block - I put it between the name and the ratings block.



{assign var="sku" value="sku_$obj_id"}
{$smarty.capture.$sku nofilter}




Volia, check the changes worked in the store front.

Well that was actually done before that issue arrised.



We did that for SEO reasons.



I still would like to find a way to add the product code to the products so when you do a search you can see the product codes.

This is perfect. Is there anyway to change the order in which these appear? I would like to move the SKU down in the product page.
