Keyword Search Results

[traytray]

When I enter a keyword, let’s say “burberry,” in the search box, the results page shows “Advanced Search” on top, but doesn’t display the keyword that was used in the results.

A competitors website shows: Your search for ‘burberry' returned 25 results

I don’t want to copy that exactly, but I like the idea of using the keyword in the results. It makes me feel as if the site is listening to me, and the impersonal ‘Advanced Search,’ is a term I have always disliked.

in /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/templates/tpl_advanced_search_result_default.php

find:

<div class="centerColumn" id="advSearchResultsDefault"> 

right below it add:

<?php
  if (isset($_GET['keyword']) && $_GET['keyword'] != HEADER_SEARCH_DEFAULT_TEXT  && $_GET['keyword'] != KEYWORD_FORMAT_STRING) {
    $keywords = $_GET['keyword'];
  }
?>

find:

<?php echo HEADING_TITLE;?>

replace with:

<?php echo HEADING_TITLE . $keywords . HEADING_TITLE_END;?>

then create a file called extra_advanced_search_result_difines.php in /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME

add this to that:

<?php
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Searches related to<font color="#000000"> ');
define('HEADING_TITLE_END', '</font>');
?>

change accordingly, add a span around $keywords to alter via css!

I was okay until I got to this part:

then create a file called extra_advanced_search_result_difines.php in /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME

add this to that:


PHP Code:

<?php
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Searches related to<font color="#000000"> ');
define('HEADING_TITLE_END', '</font>');
?>
change accordingly, add a span around $keywords to alter via css!

Then I got totally lost. Creating a file, change accordingly, add a span, all has me stumped. The change accordingly really has me worried because it makes me think this would have to be changed for each product.

[rbarbour]

no, adding it the way it is, works.

as an option you can add a span to change the way its displayed, font-face, font-weight, color, ect. guess I should have explained that part a little better

Something didn't work right. I changed /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/templates/tpl_advanced_search_result_default.php to look this way:

<div class="centerColumn" id="advSearchResultsDefault">
<?php
if (isset($_GET['keyword']) && $_GET['keyword'] != HEADER_SEARCH_DEFAULT_TEXT && $_GET['keyword'] != KEYWORD_FORMAT_STRING) {
$keywords = $_GET['keyword'];
}
?>
<h1 id="advSearchResultsDefaultHeading"></h1>
<?php echo HEADING_TITLE . $keywords . HEADING_TITLE_END;?>

and I created a new file extra_advanced_search_result_defines.php in /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME
and added the following:

<?php

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Searches related to<font color="#000000"> ');

define('HEADING_TITLE_END', '</font>');

?>

So now, the problem is on the main page it has that Searches Related to as seen here
http://designerperfumesnob.authsafe.com/

And when you actually do a search, for example I did a search for Chloe and these were the results:

http://designerperfumesnob.authsafe....hloe&x=20&y=16

HELP!!

I meant to add that on the left, see Shop By Designer and scroll down to Chloe, it will return 16 results.

start by renaming extra_advanced_search_result_difines.php to advanced_search_result.php

[rbarbour]

I meant to add that on the left, see Shop By Designer and scroll down to Chloe, it will return 16 results.

that is the manufactures sidebox, has nothing to do with keyword or searches

[rbarbour]

try removing the html like so

<?php

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Searches related to');

define('HEADING_TITLE_END', '');

?>

[traytray]

try removing the html like so

<?php

define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Searches related to');

define('HEADING_TITLE_END', '');

?>

When I removed the html I couldn't get the site to open at all, so I put it back.

Using Chloe as asn example, is it supposed to look like Searches related to Chloe? There would be nothing at all on the main page, right?
