Add Message In Empty Category was created by MyWorld
Is it possible to add a message when there are no products in a category? I know I can hide the category if there are no products but the client does not want to hide it instead would prefer a message something like "Sorry no products at this time".

Thanks!!

Yes it's possible, you have to edit the view "category / listing" in HikaShop > Display > views and if there is no elements in the var "$this->fields" then display the message.

Try to use this code:
Code:
if(empty($this->fields)) echo JText::_('NO_PRODUCTS_AT_THIS_TIME');

And add the translation: NO_PRODUCTS_AT_THIS_TIME="Sorry no products at this time"
in the translation override file:

Hi Xavier,

I add the code you provided as per below and it works but it's also add the line "Additional Information" not sure why that is?
Code:
<?php } if(empty($this->fields)) echo JText::_('NO_PRODUCTS_AT_THIS_TIME');{ ?>

Sorry no products at this time
Additional information

Thanks!!

First of all, you have to remove the "{" at the end of your code, it will return an error.
Or use:
Code:
if(empty($this->fields)){ echo JText::_('NO_PRODUCTS_AT_THIS_TIME'); }

Hello,

I changed line 70 or something
if(empty($this->fields)) echo JText::_('NO_PRODUCTS_AT_THIS_TIME');

and added translation but now it shows on every page, not only on category page without products. Where's my error?

I edited category > listing.

Hi,

The error is that this modification allow to display a message if there is no subcategories, not if there is no products in the category.

So in your case the edition of the view "product / listing" seems to be more appropriate.
You should find existing topics about that in the forum :)

Couldn't find any. Too many with vague topics.
