Remove Manufacturers Pop-Up Menu and Table?

[mtorrance]

Hello,

 

How do I remove the manufacturers menu and table? Our cart will have no need to list the manufacturers so we would like to disable it.

 

Using snapshot 11/06/02

 

Thanks,

To remove it from the left column, edit /catalog/includes/column_left.php and re-write this code:

 

  if ( (USE_CACHE == 'true') && !SID) {

   echo tep_cache_manufacturers_box();

 } else {

   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturers.php');

 }

 

To read:

 

if (false) {



 if ( (USE_CACHE == 'true') && !SID) {

   echo tep_cache_manufacturers_box();

 } else {

   include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturers.php');

 }





}

 

Basically that will leave the code intact incase you later want to add it back in.

 

In Admin, under Product Listing ... turn off the Display Manufacture.

 

In /catalog/includes/column_right.php

 

Edit:

 

  if ($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])  include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturer_info.php');

 

To read:

 

//  if ($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])  include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'manufacturer_info.php');

 

Same idea here ... comment out the code and it will not show but can be brought back easily later.
