Manufacturer

I'm in the beginning stages of setting up this cart and having the usual newby problems. While trying to add products to my first categories, the system will not let me leave the manufacturer blank even though for my particular purposes "manufacturer" is meaningless.

 

What am I missing? :huh:

Truthfully...I don't know.

 

But, try going into your Admin panel and selecting Configuration > Product Listing and look for the line that reads Display Product Manufacturers Name and set it to 0 (zero).

 

Perhaps, if it's set to display, you cannot create product listings without it? I honestly don't know, but...try that.

Thanks for trying.

 

I thought that should do it too but where it says "Do you want to display the Product Manufacturer Name?" I entered "0" but still when I attempt to "insert" I get the message "1264 - Out of range value adjusted for column 'manufacturers_id' at row 1". It's really quite maddening! :angry:

 

Anybody?

Success!

 

You'll have to edit the table structure for `products` (hopefully you have access to phpMyAdmin or other database editing tool). Change the column `manufacturer_id` from int(11) to varchar(11), and set Null to yes.
