Remove Product Added Date?

[GPMaina]

Is there a way to remove the following line that appears at the bottom of every product page? (osCMax 2.0.3/2.0.4)

"This product was added to our catalog on Monday 10 August, 2009."

I am hoping it is a simple config option, but I can't find it.

Thanks...

Ain't that an annoying line?

Look in templates/yourtemplate/content/product_info.tpl.php

 <?php
    } else {
?>
      <tr>
//        <td align="center" class="smallText"><?php echo sprintf(TEXT_DATE_ADDED, tep_date_long($product_info['products_date_added'])); ?></td>
      </tr>
<?php
    }
?>

Thanks ridexbuilder...

Actually, I couldn't get your double-strike to work on the specific line of code, perhaps because it is outside the php tags, but the following did work:

<?php
} else {
/*
?>
<tr>
<td align="center" class="smallText"><?php echo sprintf(TEXT_DATE_ADDED, tep_date_long($product_info['products_date_added'])); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php
*/
}
?>


It does eliminate the date added line... Does that make sense? Or do I need to clean something up?

Thanks...

You are not misssing anything.

// Comments out code in php

/* */ :works in css

<!-- code here //--> works in html

That's fine - I had considered just removing the line but wanted to identify it.
Remember that Thanks button.

Thanks... and yes - I usually try to comment-out the original code and add the new code rather than just delete it, so I always have a good reference if something goes wrong.

Thanks to you both!

Hi,
I tried to remove the code from products_new.tpl.php line 116

 . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_new[$x]['products_id']) . '"><strong><u>' . $products_new[$x]['products_name'] . '</u></strong></a><br>Model:'. $products_new[$x]['products_model'] . '<br>' . TEXT_DATE_ADDED . ' ' . tep_date_long($products_new[$x]['products_date_added']) 
  

. tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_new[$x]['products_id']) . '"><strong><u>' . $products_new[$x]['products_name'] . '</u></strong></a><br>Model:'. $products_new[$x]['products_model'] . '<br>' . TEXT_DATE_ADDED . ' ' . tep_date_long($products_new[$x]['products_date_added'])


If I edited anything from there I would get a blank page. I tried to just remove the date_added references which I assumed would give me a blank area with no text but instead I got a blank page where the products were.

I haven't tried the previously posted advice yet on the products page but that looks more straightforward than this.

Anyone got the date added removed from the new products page?

Thanks

Blank page = php error. (normally)

Replace:

. tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_new[$x]['products_id']) . '"><strong><u>' . $products_new[$x]['products_name'] . '</u></strong></a><br>Model:'. $products_new[$x]['products_model'] . '<br>' . TEXT_DATE_ADDED . ' ' . tep_date_long($products_new[$x]['products_date_added'])

With:

. tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'products_id=' . $products_new[$x]['products_id']) . '"><strong><u>' . $products_new[$x]['products_name'] . '</u></strong></a><br>Model:'. $products_new[$x]['products_model']

You need to watch the .'s when editting PHP scripting ...

Thanks I will try that.
