Thread: Show Multi-Variant Product Only Once in Search Results

Anyone know how to show a product that has multiple variants only once in search results?

Currently, if I have a product with six variants, the product will show up six times in search results (duplicate results linked to the product page). I only want it to show up once.

Thanks!

You will need to modify the page.search.xml.config or the page.searchadv.xml.config, if you're using the advanced search feature...

Hey Jao,

Could you provide a snippet/methodology for doing this?

Thanks

On the page.search.xml.config, comment out the highlighted parts of the following section on the Product template:

Code:

                  <xsl:value-of select="$pName"  disable-output-escaping="yes" />
                  <xsl:if test="vName!=''">
                    <xsl:value-of select="$vName" />
                  </xsl:if>

Just tried this and it didnt work.

What does work is changing @ViewType in page.search.xml.config to 1.

Well, yes, because the ViewType actually toggles the result to show all the variants or a specific (one) variant only.
