Re: find all products in the catalog admin

[David E Jones]

2. I expected to see a search results page with all products in it
3. I saw a search results page with the text "No results found."

Okay, interesting. When I think of detail I think of stuff that makes it difficult for people to misunderstand, and to know which of many ways of doing things is the way you chose, like: 1. I went to the "main" page in the Catalog Manager and in the "Search Products" box on the top-left I entered "*" into the "Keywords:" box, then clicked on the "Find" link Not that it was totally necessary in this case as my first guess exposed the problem, it was a big and obvious problem, for more subtle ones details like this are fairly critical. I hope I'm not being a jerk about this, but I find myself "coaching" people on this sort of thing on a regular basis, and sometimes examples help.

Thanks David,

Else, here was my answer :o)


2. Find all products in the catalog admin
3. There were no results.

1. Just went to the catalog manager and put "*" in the keyword search box...

I tried it real quick on the demo server, and there were no results.

The problem was that there were no keywords indexed. There is a link
to do that on the main page of the catalog manager, and after doing
that it works fine.

For some reason these are not indexing automatically... someone
changed something somewhere in the indexing, so that's the "bug"... I
don't see the EECA commented out, so it's somewhere else, probably a
default that someone changed or something...

I just tried (did not know it was possible) but it does not seem
to work. Am I missing something ?

Could you be more specific? In other words:

1. what did you do
2. what did you expect to happen
3. what actually happened
