The e-commerce.

I still can't get this to work - category/product counts in brackets!

...but I don't want the numbers in brackets that tells me how many products there are in each category.

 

I've tried going to 'Configuration' > 'My Store' > 'Show Category Counts' = 'False' but this hasn't worked.

 

Is there some code in one of the includes files I can strip out to get rid of these bracketed numbers?

While I am not an expert on this, it looks like you could delete the following from categories3.php to stop the display of product counts:

 

 if (SHOW_COUNTS) {
$products_in_category = tep_count_products_in_category($categories['categories_id']);
if ($products_in_category > 0) {
$categories_string3 .= ' (' . $products_in_category . ')';
}
}

 

Be sure to make a backup copy of the file before trying this.

Rule #1: Without exception, backup your database and files before making any changes to your files or database.

Rule #2: Make sure there are no exceptions to Rule #1.

yep graphicguy has it however I would initially only comment out the code

/*
if (SHOW_COUNTS) {
$products_in_category = tep_count_products_in_category($categories['categories_id']);
if ($products_in_category > 0) {
$categories_string3 .= ' (' . $products_in_category . ')';
}
}
*/

 

although the code should have read

 

	if (SHOW_COUNTS == 'true') {

 

which would then allow you to use the setting in admin set to false

Good point. I didn't look that close at the code's syntax, I just looked up categories3.php in another thread and looked for the code that was displaying the quantities. But fixing the code as Steve indicated is definintely a better solution.

Rule #1: Without exception, backup your database and files before making any changes to your files or database.

Rule #2: Make sure there are no exceptions to Rule #1.
