Turn off "Shipment price display in product details" in 2.6.8?

[vaskern]

I noticed shipment info is included along with the price on the product page (a new feature of 2.6.8 ). Great feature, but for now I would like to turn it off - any setting for that?

This feature was requested by many VM users. When I don't need it ATM I comment out or remove the code from components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php  and use the edited fille as a template override.

Code Select Expand


if (is_array($this->productDisplayShipments)) {
    foreach ($this->productDisplayShipments as $productDisplayShipment) {
echo $productDisplayShipment . '<br />';
    }
}
if (is_array($this->productDisplayPayments)) {
    foreach ($this->productDisplayPayments as $productDisplayPayment) {
echo $productDisplayPayment . '<br />';
    }
}

It is a nice extra but it should be nicer if you can choose to turn it on or out.

I think is a bad idea to put shipping cost in every product, because shipping cost is calculated when user finally selected all items he need to buy, and total shipping cost for whole order will be lower than for a single per single product, then if user see, for example, 5 usd  plus for every product, maybe he decide not to buy on that virtual store.

I tried the follow the removal procedure and commented out the suggested block but  text is still present.

What (else) am I missing?

Thanks.

then your in the wrong file or did it incorrectly

[KHM]

Well there's no doubt I did it in the right file, even removed the entire section and emtpied cache but the text is still there.
Attachments (edit: added a second one ) also shows some text (in native tongue) suggesting pickup at the store is free. Sticky too.

What else do I need to do? Blank out some text string files?

sorry - don't believe you.. if you really removed / commented that code from the right file then that code can't show..

Unless a template override is being used.....

I believe a switch for this has been added in 2.6.8a - currently available to VM Support Members

Upload default.php to /templates/templatename/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails

Surprising not to be believed when one have followed instructions given down to the minute detail.

I admit not to be a hard core developer, and on top of that very rusty with the methodologies and architecture of Joomla (been a few yrs since I used it last). But not completely lost, and thus can follow exemplified exercises and if nothing else hope to reproduce results.

But I am grateful for contributions, they helped me out and/or set the focus and find the right file. An override by the template in used clearly mislead me. 

The field with subsequent text as shown in previously submitted snapshots originated from a template, and under templates/templatename/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails I found the default.php had code in it forcing the text to display.

By commenting out the code section reflecting the text/fields it went away. I'll bring up the question with those who developed the template.

Thanks for the help

ah  - there's the rub ... you didn't   

When I don't need it ATM I comment out or remove the code from components/com_virtuemart/views/productdetails/tmpl/default.php  and use the edited fille as a template override.

If you tried this you would have discovered your template over ride already there... and.... 

[KHM]

No I misunderstood the term used which is why the extra loop. That would be the rub.

In any event, thanks to the guiding posts I managed to inch myself towards a solution and am grateful for help given. Next time I see the term override I know what to do.

End of story.
Thanks

Tell me please, can anyone know which file you need to translate this string into your language?

[GJC Web Design]

it is in the shipping plugin - if you use the weight_countries
plugins/vmshipment/weight_countries/weight_countries/tmpl/default.php  - last line
hard coded - tsk tsk
