How did you display Product Model next to Product Name when selecting Related Products? I have multiple Products with the same Product Name. Product Model uniquely identifies my Products.
Any suggestions?

For v1.5.x:
In catalog/controller/product/product.php file,
find:
Code: Select all
'reviews' => sprintf($this->language->get('text_reviews'), (int)$result['reviews']),
add after:
Then, in view/theme/default/template/product/product.tpl file,
find:
Code: Select all
<div class="image"><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $product['thumb']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?>" /></a></div>
<?php } ?>
<div class="name"><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><?php echo $product['name']; ?></a></div>
replace with:
Code: Select all
<div class="image"><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $product['thumb']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $product['name']; ?> (<?php echo $product['model']; ?>)" title="<?php echo $product['name']; ?> (<?php echo $product['model']; ?>)"/></a></div>
<?php } ?>
<div class="name"><a href="<?php echo $product['href']; ?>"><?php echo $product['name']; ?></a> (<?php echo $product['model']; ?>)</div>

How do I display the Product SKU next to the Product Name in the "Admin" when selecting Related Products? (OpenCart version 1.5.1.3)

In admin/controller/catalog/product.php file,
find:
add above:
Code: Select all
'model' => $related_info['model'],
In admin/view/template/catalog/product_form.tpl file,
find:
Code: Select all
<div id="product-related<?php echo $product_related['product_id']; ?>" class="<?php echo $class; ?>"> <?php echo $product_related['name']; ?><img src="view/image/delete.png" />
replace with:
Code: Select all
<div id="product-related<?php echo $product_related['product_id']; ?>" class="<?php echo $class; ?>"> <?php echo $product_related['name']; ?> (<?php echo $product_related['model']; ?>)<img src="view/image/delete.png" />
This should work as expected.

Works great! When using the AutoComplete feature when selecting a Product to add to the Related Products currently only the Product Name is displayed when I begin typing. How do I display Product Model next to the Product Name when I begin typing?

Untested so make a backup of admin/view/template/catalog/product_form.tpl file,
in this section:
Code: Select all
$('input[name=\'related\']').autocomplete({
find:
replace with:
Code: Select all
label: item.name + '(' + item.model + ')',
This could probably work.

Thank you again for you help. Good news! Your Product Model code works
Code: Select all
label: item.name + '(' + item.model + ')',
If I want to display Product SKU next to Product Name when typing in the AutoComplete Related Products box what code should I use? I tried the following code
Code: Select all
label: item.name + '(' + item.sku + ')',
But this did not work, when I typed in the Product Name using the AutoComplete Feature, the Product Name would display, but the Product SKU would not display next to the Product Name, instead it would display as "Product Name (undefined)" instead of "Product Name (SKU)".
Any ideas?

Inclusively, yes.
However, you'd also need to state the following from admin/controller/catalog/product.php file
where:
Code: Select all
'name' => html_entity_decode($result['name'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'),
'model' => $result['model'],
to add below:

You are the man! Thank you. Thank you. Works great! This is a big deal to the way my cart works since my Products are uniquely idenitified by Product SKU.

You're making the right choice by displaying the products by SKU politically. Most eCommerce manufacturers does not provide this solution while this should be included at least as an option.

Simply follow all my instructions above but in your case from this post:
http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 63#p231290
replace the last step
from:
Code: Select all
<div id="product-related<?php echo $product_related['product_id']; ?>" class="<?php echo $class; ?>"> <?php echo $product_related['name']; ?> (<?php echo $product_related['model']; ?>)<img src="view/image/delete.png" />
to read:
Code: Select all
<div id="product-related<?php echo $product_related['product_id']; ?>" class="<?php echo $class; ?>"> <?php echo $product_related['model']; ?><img src="view/image/delete.png" />
exceptionally. This should work as expected. If you need to search by models, I would strongly recommend the use of the SKU inclusively.

It's a nice feature to show the sku/model while you're doing a search by name in the add related products.
How would you modify it so it autocompletes based on name OR sku instead?
