Search box on shopping cart page

[FredW]

Hi Folks,

I apologize in advance if this question has been asked and answered before, but after searching your forum and help pages, I can't find the answer.

Is there an option to set to get the search box to show up on the Shopping cart page?

Thanks,
Fred

There is no setting for this, it would just depend on whether or not the shopping cart template included it. None of the default cart templates in ShopSite include a search field, so it would have to be your own custom cart template or a customized copy of one of the ShopSite cart templates.

Hello Loren,

I finally got around to working on getting the search box on the shopping cart page and encountered something I don't understand. I'm working with a copy of the Multi-Use-Search.sst template. The template has code in it as shown below: (I've colored the lines in question.) I have set up the Search Page Layout such that I checked the option below:
]Search on store pages x Check here to display search on all store pages

I assumed that that check box turned set the VAR.SearchOnAllPages to 'Yes", but my testing of my copy of this template shows that is not the case. If it were the case, my thinking is that the search box would be displayed.

Can you help clarify what I am missing here?
Thanks
Fred

Try adding just the following code. Make sure that it is not inside of any other form on the page or it won't work and neither will the rest of the page.

Code: Select all

<form action="[-- SHOPPING_CART_URL BASE --]/productsearch.cgi?storeid=[-- STORE.ID --]" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="storeid" value="[-- STORE.ID --]">
<input type="text" name="search_field" class="search" size="13">
<input type="submit" value="[-- STORE.Go --]" class="search_submit">
</form>
