clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/18/2019 : 03:22:30 I've updated a site to v6.9.6 and seen that the search results page includes the search filter options even though I have $nosearchbyfilters=TRUE; in my includes.php file. Has this been changed? Should I be using another variable? CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/18/2019 : 03:55:46 Hi Clive The parameter should work $nosearchbyfilters=TRUE; Is it definitely in the includes file on the server? Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/18/2019 : 06:30:16 Yes, it is. I downloaded the file to confirm that. CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/18/2019 : 06:52:41 I tried that here http://ectwp.com/search.php and it appears to work as it should, can you check for duplicates or typos? Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/18/2019 : 09:19:05 I cannot find any duplicates or typos. I have added this to my search.php page <?php if ($nosearchbyfilters) echo 'success'; ?> I get 'success' displayed on the page. If I comment out $nosearchbyfilters=TRUE in my includes.php file, I don't get 'success' on the page. CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/18/2019 : 09:38:45 Hmmmm...that's odd. It really shouldn't make a difference but can you change that to $GLOBALS['nosearchbyfilters']=TRUE; Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/19/2019 : 01:28:18 Have done that but there's no change. CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/19/2019 : 01:47:18 It was a long shot, I'm a bit stumped. Which site of yours is it? Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software

Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/19/2019 : 03:48:25 Got the mail, had a look and the filters don't show for me. Can you force a refresh and check that, or view on a different device? Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/19/2019 : 09:07:59 Have refreshed, viewed with different browser, and via private window, and through a VPN. Still see the filters. This has me stumped! CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/19/2019 : 09:43:27 Just checked again and they're definitely not showing here - did you use Ctrl+Refresh? Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/22/2019 : 00:41:32 Are you still seeing the filters, Clive? I asked a colleague to take a look and they're not seeing them either. Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 01:01:41 Yes I am. I don't understand why you are seeing different or why this would be cached, if it is. CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 01:35:29 Can you ask your host if there's any server side caching that might cause it, I'd also ask someone who hasn't visited the site before to take a look and hopefully they'll see what I see.

clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 02:39:06 My coworking mate here sees the filters (he's using Brave browser). The problem was first reported to me be the client where the problem was on his live site (I've now used CSS on the live site to hide the filters). The hosting is Memset VPS. I don't know of any caching but would need to contact them to confirm. CVW Web Design www.cvwdesign.co.uk \| web design and development
Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 02:42:24 Do you still have it showing on the test site with no css hiding? Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software

Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 02:59:53 I have sent you an email with a screen shot of what I see. Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
clivewalker Ecommerce Template Expert United Kingdom 689 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 03:08:23 Yes, that's what I see. The Max Price, Search Type, and Category filters are there but $nosearchbyfilters=TRUE; in my includes file I'm using if ($nosearchbyfilters) echo 'success'; to echo that on the page.

Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 04/23/2019 : 03:12:10 That is correct then, that parameter removes the filters set in the attributes admin page, it doesn't remove the Max Price, Search type or Categories. Those would have to be hidden via the css file. Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
