Empty search text displays below category listing

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.4
-- Joomla version -- : 2.5.28
-- PHP version -- : 5.6.20

Hi,

After updating Hikashop 2.3.3 to version 2.6.4 the language string HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT is displayed on the main page of the shop below the category listing, when there are no associated products.
Before the NO_RESULTS text only was displayed on the page with an empty result of the search filter. This was realized by adding this code to the view product/listing.php.

}elseif(( !$this->module || JRequest::getVar('hikashop_front_end_main',0) ) && (@$_REQUEST['ctrl']=='product' || @$_REQUEST['view']=='product') && (@$_REQUEST['task']=='listing' || @$_REQUEST['layout']=='listing') && !empty($this->filters) && count($this->filters)){
    echo JText::_('HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT');
  }

}elseif(( !$this->module || JRequest::getVar('hikashop_front_end_main',0) ) && ((@$_REQUEST['ctrl']=='product' || @$_REQUEST['view']=='product') || (@$_REQUEST['ctrl']=='category' || @$_REQUEST['view']=='category')) && (@$_REQUEST['task']=='listing' || @$_REQUEST['layout']=='listing') && !empty($this->filters) && count($this->filters)){
		echo JText::_('HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT');
	}

Hi,

Well, it's not so that I don't want the no result message on a categories listing with filter.
I don't want it on the main page with the categories overview. And I don't want it on any page showing an empty subcategory.
On my website this message does display on those pages.

It's caused by the search filter. The search module links to a menu with a listing of all products and works fine.
But after updating Hikashop the no results message is displayed on the categories overview because there are no products in the main category (only in subcategories).

After depublishing the filter this message is gone.

In the search filter in the Hikashop configuration I changed the field Category to Root and selected No subcategories. Then the no result mesage in the categories listing is gone too. But of course the filter does not work anymore so that's not the solution.

Where should I look to get the right solution?

Hi,

Thanks for your code. I applied your override and hack.
It works, This results in a no result message displayed only if the search results page is empty.
It's not displayed in an (sub)category with no products and in a (sub)category listing with no products

However on my website the same result is also achieved (without a hack) in the way described in my first post of this topic.
Perhaps because my (sub)category listings have no extra filters.

Udo
