smart search not limiting characters

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hi,

My site's smart search shows more characters than the limit specifies. Is this a bug with Joomla or linked to this template?

prettygoodhost.com/celtibillies/search

search for "cd"
I do not want those buy buttons to load. I have 100 characters selected to show in the smart search options.

Thanks,
Helen

Thanks,
Helen

Hi Helen,

I've not used Smart search much but I would expect this to be a joomla issue

Have you tried a quick test with switching to a default joomla template?

I can also see its displaying plugin syntax code

Buttons if worst came to the worse you could hide in the results using the search-results list-striped and then button class with display none

Cheers

Yeah, I see it with Breez template too.

I have not found ANY talk about this problem. I don't see how to strip the results in the options.

this will hide the buttons using css

ul.search-results.list-striped .hikashop_add_to_cart {display:none;}

Holy crap. The beginning of each sentence is lost -- many characters...

hmm not sure how big the site is but perhaps test having

{loadposition music}

wrapped in a div

<div class="smart">{loadposition music}</div>

and then hide the smart class in search results

It's ok, I think I'll switch to regular search. Thanks Paul!

No worries I lose myself all the time :)

I was looking at ways you could hide content using display none

Good luck with the site :)
