Description in product listing

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.4
-- Joomla version -- : 3.3.6
-- PHP version -- : 5.3.29
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox 33.1

Hi all,

I´m trying to figure out if it´s possible to show the description of the product in the product listing:

Hello Torsten,
1.
- You can directly use the "Type of item layout" option through your product listing content menu's configuration page
OR
- You'll have to directly add your product description on the code of the "listing_img_title" file of the "Product" view of your front-end template via "Hikashop->Display->Views".

2. Editing your language file will probably do the job : www.hikashop.com/download/languages.html#translate

Thanks for the update, Mohamed.

1) The "Type of item layout"-option is not working for me, I´ve tested this before.
Could you please tell me which code I should insert into the "listing_img_title"-view ?

2) Editing the language file did the trick.

Best regards
Torsten

Hi,

Use the "listing_img_desc" view is the best solution.
If it's not working for you, that's potentially because you are editing the option in the wrong menu/module.

You have to edit he settings of the menu with the id "645". If it's still not working please check if you don't have any overrides on the view "product / lising_img_desc" via the HikaShop menu Display > Views.

Hi,

sorry, but I can´t get this to work. That´s how it should look:

Hi Nicolas,

you made my day, this works like a charm

I have some additional questions but first need to think about it.

Thanks again
Torsten

Hi Nicolas,

all is working now, here there additional questions:

1) How can I remove the marked column ?

Hello,
1.
You can do it by using some CSS code, or by directly editing the "cart" file of the "checkout" view of your front-end template via "Hikashop->Display->Views".

2.
There is no option to do that, the only solution will be to use some custom code through the payment plugin files or the email files (Hikashop->System->Emails).

Hi Mohamed,

many thanks for the update.

1) Could you be a bit more precise where to edit what ? Which code to insert or to delete ?
2) Is this something you can help me with or do I have to ask a developer / programmer ?

Thanks again
Torsten

Hello,

1. You'll have to use that kind of CSS code :

#hikashop_checkout_cart .hikashop_cart_product_price_value {
display: none;
}
#hikashop_checkout_page #hikashop_cart_product_price_title {
display: none;
}

Thanks for the update, Mohamed. Will try out your hint later this afternoon.
Would´nt it make sense to add an option to attach files easily to Hikashop in a future version ?
I´ve seen this question in the forum a couple of times now.

Best regards
Torsten

Hi,

We can already attach files to HikaShop emails, the thing is that we can't restrict them to one payment or shipping method.
There is too much use case, so it's very complicated to add this kind of option, we can't really cover all the situations.

Hi Xavier,

if you take "variants" as an example, it would be helpful to attach files there. Not just a link but the file itself.

Best regards

Hi,

Sorry but I am a little bit lost. Aren't you talking about the file attachment in emails based on the payment method choosed ?

If you want to attach file directly to variants, it's possible via the product edition page, click on "manage variants" button then add files to the variant, not free, this way the file will be present in the email.

Please give us more details on what you need exactly.

Hi Xavier,

sorry for the delay.

I described it wrong in my last post, I meant "payment methods" and not "variants.

Best regards
Torsten
