Change basic search parameters?

[tmiller]

Is it possible to specify which fields the basic search function will include?

My site is still in production, and can be found at http://www.traceymillerdesigns.com/c...lassics/store/

At the moment, when I search (using the basic search on the upper left) I am getting too many results because the product description is being included; I'd like to exclude that. Can it be done through the admin?

(FYI, I am going to add a link to Advanced Search on the upper left of the home page as well...just haven't gotten to that yet!)

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

You need to make a change to the search sidebox template. The file you need to change is includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_search.php . You may have to copy the file there from includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes if you have not already modified that file. In the file you will see a line that says...

$content .= zen_draw_hidden_field('search_in_description', '1') . zen_hide_session_id(); 

...change the '1' to a '0' so that you get...

$content .= zen_draw_hidden_field('search_in_description', '0') . zen_hide_session_id(); 

Regards,
Christian.
