Removing an Advanced Search field?

mike_the_boardgamer · March 30, 2010, 12:00am

I want to remove the search by “weight” field from the Advanced Search page as it doesn’t apply to my business.

How do I do this?

Bump? Anyone know how to do this?

Please, if anyone out there knows how to do this I would sure appreciate it.

I can’t confirm this as I am not using version 2 myself but try commenting out the following in the customer/views/products/components/products_search_form.tpl file:



		{$lang.search_by_weight} ({if $config.localization.weight_symbol}{$config.localization.weight_symbol}{else}{$settings.General.weight_symbol}{/if}):

		 -

Make sure you just comment it out rather than deleting it in case it doesn’t work, and please post back to let us know how you go.

Commenting it out didn’t work but deleting it did. Thanks a bunch!

Glad it worked for you.

Commenting it out should have worked. Did you use {* at the beginning and *} at the end?

I’d make that field type hidden and for the div, I’d set it display: none.
