Hi All,
Niche Mode enables the import to be restricted to only those product names configured in Product Mapping or derived from a Product Mapping By RegExp rule. This means however that once enabled, admin tools that query the products table only have visibility of the imported products.
To create a shadow `products_all` table that can be used by the admin search functions and Imported Analysis, first create and run the following dbmod.php from the top level of your Price Tapestry installation:
<?php
require("includes/common.php");
$sql = "CREATE TABLE `".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products_all` LIKE `".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products`";
database_queryModify($sql,$result);
print "Done.";
?>
Next, edit includes/admin.php and look for the following code beginning at line 451:
/* niche mode */
if ($config_nicheMode)
{
if (
!in_array($importRecord["name"],$admin_importProductMappings)
&&
!$regexpMapped
)
return;
}...and REPLACE with:
/* niche mode */
if ($config_nicheMode)
{
$nicheModeImport = (
in_array($importRecord["name"],$admin_importProductMappings)
||
$regexpMapped
);
}
else
{
$nicheModeImport = TRUE;
}And then the following code at line 523:
if (database_queryModify($sql,$insertId))
{
$admin_importProductCount++;
}...and REPLACE with:
if ($nicheModeImport)
{
database_queryModify($sql,$insertId);
}
$sql = str_replace("`".$config_databaseTablePrefix.$table."`","`".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products_all`",$sql);
if (database_queryModify($sql,$insertId))
{
$admin_importProductCount++;
}And finally the following code at line 738:
$admin_importProductCount = 0;...and REPLACE with:
$sql = "DELETE FROM `".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products_all` WHERE filename='".database_safe($admin_importFeed["filename"])."'";
database_queryModify($sql,$insertId);
$admin_importProductCount = 0;Edit admin/helper.php and look for the following code at line 22:
$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT(".$field.") FROM `".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products` WHERE ".$field." LIKE '%".database_safe($q)."%' ORDER BY ".$field." LIMIT 6";...and REPLACE with:
$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT(".$field.") FROM `".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products_all` WHERE ".$field." LIKE '%".database_safe($q)."%' ORDER BY ".$field." LIMIT 6";Edit admin/feeds_utils_imported.php and use your text editor's Search and Replace function to search:
`".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products`...and REPLACE with:
`".$config_databaseTablePrefix."products_all`(4 instances, lines 98/194/229/307)
With that in place; following the next full import, admin search functions and Imported Analysis will then have visibility of all products.
Cheers,
David
