Another subproduct & search question

PostPosted: Sat Nov 20, 2004 8:18 am

We want to setup a template using subproducts so the subproducts do not show
in search results AND have the parent products have Add to Cart buttons. Is
it possible to use subproducts and have the parent product show up in search
results with an Add to Cart button?

Thanks

Gary

In ShopSite 7.1.x search results are displayed using custom templates.
There are 3 template defined, one for the page layout, one for how you
want the links to look and one for how the products display. To solve
your situation you can create a product template that does not reference
subproducts at all, i.e. not [-- LOOP subproducts --], and put in a "Add
to Cart" button for the Parent product.
