Empty categories message

Hi,

Could you provide more information on the situation ?
I checked on your link and tried to select about 15 different categories and they all had products in them.
So I also used the text search to reduce the results to 0 and I did get a "no products found" message:

So if you just want to change that text, you could use a translation override, but I suspect that you're talking about something else...

Hello,

First you have to understand how to customize your view file, via the HikaShop Override system, and so have a look on this documentation .

Then, we will guide you to perform this override, first you have to create an override view from the view Category/listing.
Around line 100, you will see this :

...
$html = $this->loadTemplate($layout_type);
if(!empty($html)) echo '<div class="hikashop_subcategories_listing">'.$html.'</div>';

if(!$this->module)
...

...
$html = $this->loadTemplate($layout_type);
if(!empty($html)) echo '<div class="hikashop_subcategories_listing">'.$html.'</div>';
else echo '<div class="hikashop_no_subcategories_listing">NO PRODUCT AVAILABLE</div>';

if(!$this->module)
...

Hello,

In order to refine our advice can you provide us with the following elements :
- An url to the context where the message is displayed when this isn't desired.
=> No need to have the current custom message display.
- A screenshot of this same context but with the Display view files option activate on Front-end
=> You will find this option from Main HikaShop Configuration => Advanced tab, first displayed option.

Awaiting your element to better answer you.
Regards

Hello,

Thanks for your elements, these allow us to progress on your subject, and so can you try this code :
Previously, I suggest you this :

...
$html = $this->loadTemplate($layout_type);
if(!empty($html)) echo '<div class="hikashop_subcategories_listing">'.$html.'</div>';
else echo '<div class="hikashop_no_subcategories_listing">NO PRODUCT AVAILABLE</div>';

if(!$this->module)
...

...
$html = $this->loadTemplate($layout_type);
if(!empty($html)) echo '<div class="hikashop_subcategories_listing">'.$html.'</div>';

if ((empty($html)) && (empty(!$this->module))) {
	echo '<div class="hikashop_no_subcategories_listing">NO PRODUCT AVAILABLE</div>';
}
if(!$this->module)
...

Hello,

We check the code that we provide but it seems that our code didn't have any mistake or typo, from this and your reported error message it seems that you have forget an ";".

To be sure, go back to the default file, without modifications and just pasted this code (in the same line):

if ((empty($html)) && (empty(!$this->module))) {
	echo '<div class="hikashop_no_subcategories_listing">NO PRODUCT AVAILABLE</div>';
}

Hello,

Sorry for this but I have made a mistake, really sorry for this, I analyze deeper the solution let's restart from scratch, follow me step by step :
- First don't use category/Listing view but rather the product/Listing
- Go around line 270, find this code :

} elseif(( !$this->module || hikaInput::get()->getVar('hikashop_front_end_main',0) ) && ($ctrl == 'product'  || $ctrl == 'category') && $task == 'listing' && !empty($this->filters) && is_array($this->filters) && count($this->filters) && !empty($this->filter_set)) {

} elseif(( !$this->module || hikaInput::get()->getVar('hikashop_front_end_main',0) ) && ($ctrl == 'product'  || $ctrl == 'category') && $task == 'listing') {

echo '<div class="hk-well hika_no_products"><i class="fa fa-search"></i> ' . JText::_('HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT') . '</div>';

Hi,

You have a translation issue.
The icon there will only display if there are no results and in that case, it will display the text for the translation key HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT next to it.
So that means that in your HikaShop translation file, you have the line:
HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT=""
which results in no message displayed.
But in the HikaShop English translation file (the main one), we have this:
HIKASHOP_NO_RESULT="No products found."
So you need to check your translations under the tab "Languages" of the HikaShop configuration and search for that translation key.

Hello,

You can try 2 differents solutions :
1. First in the relative Item Menu (with the Id 2723), go to Categories options tab, and in Category data display
=> Define the "Only with products" on "Yes"
Il the previous solution didn't work :
2. A custom css command to directl hide this part for required context.
Example :
.required_context_id1 .hikashop_submodules,
.required_context_id2 .hikashop_submodules {
// To hide unwanted "no product found" message
display: none;
}

Hope this will you to achieved what you need.
Regards

Hi,

I think it comes from the code in product / listing.php
By default you should now have:

} elseif(( !$this->module || hikaInput::get()->getVar('hikashop_front_end_main',0) ) && ($ctrl == 'product'  || $ctrl == 'category') && $task == 'listing' && !empty($this->filters) && is_array($this->filters) && count($this->filters) && !empty($this->filter_set)) {

&& !empty($this->filters) && is_array($this->filters) && count($this->filters) && !empty($this->filter_set)
