Modifying the Advanced Search and similar pages

[jbarrick]

I am trying to get my advanced search page to display the products_weight field.

http://www.bodykits.net/index.php?ma...earch_advanced

also on similar pages such as http://www.bodykits.net/conversions/honda/civic/

I have gone into /includes/extra_datafiles/fuctions_products_MY-TEMPLATE/functions_products_bodykits_net.php

and defined products_weight just as other variables such as products_price and products_msrp are defined.

I also currently have it set to display right after "Your Price".

The data never makes it to the page. Clearly I am missing something. Where else do I need to define this field to get it to display?

/includes/extra_datafiles/fuctions_products_MY-TEMPLATE/functions_products_bodykits_net.php

I'm not sure why you've got a "fuctions_products_MY-TEMPLATE" folder in there. Only the first level of files inside extra_datafiles is ever used. Subfolders below that are ignored. So, the file you mentioned won't be getting loaded.

I found where I needed to add another definition of products_weight

includes/extra_datafiles/sorter_class.php

 public $select = array( 'count'            => array( 'count( p.products_id ) as count' ),
                            'products'         => array( 'p.products_id',
                                                         'p.products_image',
                                                         'p.products_price',
                                                         'p.products_msrp',
                                                         

                                                         'p.products_weight',

                                                         'p.products_year_first',
                                                         'p.products_year_last',
                                                         'pd.products_name',
                                                         'pd.products_description',
                                                         'p.manufacturers_id'
                                                        ),
