how to remove - this product was added at ..

[toker]

hello

 

anyone knows - seen it before but I am looking for a needle in a haystack

 

'This product was added to our catalog on Saturday 31 January, 2009'

 

I would like to loose that line

 

thanx

I know this is really old but I was trying to do this too and it took me a while to find since this direct question wasn't answered. Figured I'd post what I did in case anyone else is looking to do this...

 

In catalog/product_info.php, I commented out the line that reads:

 

<td align="center" class="smallText"><?php echo sprintf(TEXT_DATE_ADDED, tep_date_long($product_info['products_date_added'])); ?></td>

I did this in my 2.3.3.4 store

 

In catalog/products_new.php around line 65 find

 

<td valign="top" class="main"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_new['products_id']) . '"><strong><u>' . $products_new['products_name'] . '</u></strong></a><br />' . TEXT_DATE_ADDED . ' ' . tep_date_long($products_new['products_date_added']) . '<br />' . TEXT_MANUFACTURER . ' ' . $products_new['manufacturers_name'] . '<br /><br />' . TEXT_PRICE . ' ' . $products_price; ?></td>

 

replace with

 

<td valign="top" class="main"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_new['products_id']) . '"><strong><u>' . $products_new['products_name'] . '</u></strong></a><br />' /*. TEXT_DATE_ADDED . ' ' . tep_date_long($products_new['products_date_added']) . '<br />' */. TEXT_MANUFACTURER . ' ' . $products_new['manufacturers_name'] . '<br /><br />' . TEXT_PRICE . ' ' . $products_price; ?></td>

Ours is an old 2.2 store. So there you go people. Now you know how to do it in both versions...

 

To take it a step further, say you want to change the date on the product pages to the date last modified instead of the date it was added to the catalog. In this case, instead of commenting out the line I referenced, you would change products_date_added to products_last_modified. Then you would also have to change the products_date_added to products_last_modified up higher in the code where it is populating the data from the products table.
