Advanced search node 1224 + Maximum results

Submitted by APZ215 on Thu, 2019-02-14 09:32 in Price Tapestry

Hello David

Is it possible to create/show a maximum number of search results (or adjust the number of pages) by adjusting the makeIndex.php?

Sometimes I get thousands of search results and for example 100 search results is more than enough to show the website visitor.

This is an expansion on:
Advanced Search @ https://www.pricetapestry.com/node/1224

Hello Arlo,

Sure - you can cap the number of result pages linked as required - edit search.php and look for the following code at line 347:

$resultCount = $rowsResultCount[0]["resultcount"];

...and REPLACE with:

    $maxPages = 100;

    $resultCount = $rowsResultCount[0]["resultcount"];

    $maxResults = ($config_resultsPerPage * $maxPages);

    if ($resultCount > $maxResults) $resultCount = $maxResults;

Adjust value for $maxPages as required...

Cheers,
David.
