I have a small website with not many products listed (so not worried about the extra overhead incurred with searching product description)...it's highly likely my future customers will need to search the product descriptions as default.
Alas - to my eyes at least, it's not even obvious to a passing customer that the default OC search box has the option of an advanced search where they can tick the 'search in product descriptions'. I'd therefore like to enable it as default. I've used the search for this support forum & come up with some associated results, but my header.tpl doesn't appear to have the same code that thse related posts say should be changed.
I'm running OC 1.5.3.1 ....has the format of header.tpl changed for this release?
Can anyone outline the steps I need to take to have search product descriptions selected as default?
Many thanks.
Ok, so I found a link that shows how to search product descriptions as default...
http://craigmurray.me.uk/opencart-mods/ ... y-default/
it says to modify some java script located in the file header.tpl
but there is no associated java in my /httpdocs/catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/header.tpl....
So has anyone sussed the way to modify 1.5.3.1 to allow searching of product descriptions as default?
