Virtuemart - Disable SKU

-
Been working on Joomla and VirtueMart lately :) On of the "customization" that people (client) always want is to disable or remove the SKU number from cart, or basket, or order details page.

Did a Google search a found out that there are quite a number of people out there offering solutions to remove SKU, but at a high price. Actually, you can hide the print of the SKU in the basket and order details page.


To disable SKU in "basket", find the file at
components/com_virtuemart/themes/default/templates/basket/basket_b2c.html.php
Note: If you are using other customized theme, go to ../theme/<your-theme>/ instead.

Inside that file around like 23 you will find the header of the column print
_('PHPSHOP_CART_SKU') ?>

You can comment that or delete Usually, to be safe, I'll just comment it ( /* .......*/ ).

Then for the SKU code, around line 31, do the same thing, remove or comment it.


To disable SKU in "account order details" page, find the file at
components/com_virtuemart/themes/default/templates/pages/
account.order_details.tpl.php

Then, find all the lines that contains "SKU" and delete/comment them out.



Hope this helps some of you out there. :)

    Hi, what I meant is, just search (CTRL+F) for the word "SKU" in account.order_details.tpl.php. And remove all occurrences.

    Btw, which Virturemart version are you using?

    In a nutshell, the main difference is obviously scale. The
    good news is that a lot of the data protection

    technology that started in
    enterprise, many of them have in progress to work their way downward into
    something that is more than just butchering the skin and slashing the price.
    There actually is additional of a right-sizing of ability

    I only just rehabilitated this blog from Blogger (in print via FTP) to WordPress. It in fact turned out to be a whole lot easier than I
    anticipated. I’ll lay out the steps I took for you beneath.

[Azure Websites PHP] Cross Domain request results in blank response page after Preflight HTTP OPTIONS

THE PROBLEM I've deployed a REST API application ( CodeIgniter with Phil Sturgeon's Rest-Server library ) on Azure Websites. Although I've set the Access-Control-* header in my PHP application: header('Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true'); header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *'); header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS'); header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept'); (If you need a working test file, here's the gist for the test file) But Azure Websites server doesn't return the headers in response. And thus all requests to the server failed with the error message: Origin http://example.azurewebsites.net is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.   In order to make sure there's no problem with my application, I've deployed the same code to Appfog.com . And as expected, the application works just fine. The same application d...

[Magento] Create Contact Form with Dynamic Recipient

-
There are many ways of creating contact forms to email to multiple recipient. I'm going to describe a way that uses Javascript a the frontend to change the target recipient. Advantage of this method: Easy to add in new emails in the future. Disadvantage of this method: For those who are particularly concern email privacy, you might not want to use this method. You can modify the email checking to the backend (controller) instead. Okay enough talking, lets get started. Step 1: Set up HTML form fields I'm going to use an example of drop down select to change the email. Of course, this is fairly easy to modify with other forms as well. Open up app/design/frontend/default/<theme>/template/contacts/contacts.phtml Insert the following snippets anywhere between the <form>...</form> tag. <select name="interest" id="interest" title="<?php echo Mage::helper('contacts')->__('Please select department t...
