[SOLVED] Quick Search Giving wierd results

[asecondwill]

Search is giving some really wierd results for me. I have installed the quick search block on the left hand side.

If i Search for "Low voltage Halogen AR-111 Lamps" which is the name of a product, I get a page Saying "8 search results have been found"

beneath that, a missing image pic is shown, with a link around it with nothing in the href, below that is a product title, but not one containing the string i searched for.

Can anyone throw any light into why the search dosn't work for me? Have i missed out a configuration step somewhere?

I have checked the search preferences page, the index has been built.

Im running 1.4

Thanks very much for any help,

will

further to that, here is a screen shot of the product page, showing there are images for this product.

This isn't a one off, the search gives odd results for anything searched.

It may be a problem with your theme, what happens when you try it with the default PS theme?

Also, why are you using a beta version?

Hi just wanted to come back on and say thanks for helping me out there

 

 

I had the beta version because that was the latest when i started building the site. Switching to the default theme didn't fix it.

 

I upgraded (omg, thank you to the devs for doing the new upgrade system, because 1.4.0 -> 1.4.4 was a bit tricky!) and tested with default theme - it works. So looking at the difference, the old theme (and the one i based my theme on) had

 

line 49: {include file="$tpl_dir./product-list.tpl" products=$products}

 

but it should be:

 

{include file="$tpl_dir./product-list.tpl" products=$search_products}

 

And now im getting some results returned! yay.

 

Thanks again

Hi Will,

I'm glad you were able to get this working. We may put out a lot of updates, but as you can see, they are for a reason. I am going to mark this topic as solved, but let me know if you have any further questions stemming from this.
