search and filter problem

1) my website has 2 ways of shopping. 1 is via products and another via categories

2) When you shop using the products here www.britishfoodabroad.co.uk/index.php/products there is a search button on the right and you can search through all products and it works great

3) However when you shop by browsing through the categories eg this page : www.britishfoodabroad.co.uk/index.php/sh...y/category/420-heinz

the search button appears again. This works but only within the category you are in. Eg if you type in tomato when you are within the category here for example www.britishfoodabroad.co.uk/index.php/sh...y/category/420-heinz it will correctly find tomato within this category. However if you type in Beans it wont find any even though there are beans on the site. It seems to be only searching within the category it is currently.

The search on the left still works okay and searches through all products. How can i get the search module in the category page to indicate that it is only to search within this category?

The problem I have is that if I change the heading the search on the left of the page will also change? This is causing confusion

Hi,

To indicate that it's only search in the current category, you can edit the view "product / filter" in HikaShop > Display > Views and add your text after the line:
Because the Fieldset is only used in the page and not in the module.

That worked great! How do i change or amend the label filters ?

Hi,

To change the label, you can override the translation in HikaShop > Configuration > Languages, and replace the text between the quotes for the text "FILTERS"

Thanks again..that worked..one more thing on my page here :

www.britishfoodabroad.co.uk/index.php/sh...tegory/316-flahavans

How can I move the search box down a little as it is a little squashed against the text above reading : "Use this Search Box to search within the current Category and the Search box on the Left to search through all products on the British Food Abroad Website"

Thanks for all your help

Hi,

You can apply this property in the Frontend CSS File in HikaShop > Configuration > Display:

sorry not sure exactly where i need to look to insert the code you supplied, which view or file would I need to amend?

Thanks

Hi,

You can add/edit this property in the file Frontend css file in HikaShop > Configuration > Display.
Or in your template css file.

sorry still cant get it to work

Hi,
In Joomla > Extenstions > Template manager, edit the file "template.css" of your current template and add the property: at the end of the file.

how can i change the color of the filter button from orange?

Also can you confirm if I did this correctly, I changed the label of the filter button from "Filter" to "Search" by editing the language file setting ,FILTER="Search", is this ok?

To change the color of you button, you have to change the file button.png in your template image folder.

Yes, changing the text in the language file is the good way to do that.
