URI Look Up

[cnelson]

I am working to install power search and I am unable to get the URI look up function to work at all.

Here is the code I am using, which is from the How-To docs

        <mvt:assign name="l.uri:product_id" value="l.all_settings:product:id" />
        <mvt:do file="g.Module_Feature_URI_DB" name="l.have_uri" value="URI_Load_Item_Canonical( l.uri, l.settings:canonical_uri )" />
        <mvt:if expr="l.have_uri">
            <a href="&mvt:canonical_uri:canonical;" title="&mvte:product:name;">
        <mvt:else>
            <a href="/&mvts:product:name;.html" title="&mvte:product:name;">
        </mvt:if>

This code is being used in the power search product layout template.

The Miva engine is 5.26

Thanks for the help. I am sure I am missing something simple with the do function.

Does your l.all_settings:product:id have a value? Try outputting that to the page to ensure your getting back a product id.

My bad, that was a lightly old code chunk. I already checked that and l.all_settings returns nothing.

l.settings:product:id; does however return a value.

<mvt:assign name="l.uri:product_id" value="l.settings:product:id" />

That is what is in there now and it is still not working.

See this example. Your l.uri structure needs to contain all the members listed here:

Looks like this is working now. It was a combo of the canonical object not having a value, and then the product id not being correct. Fixed now. Thanks.

Hey Calvin, would you mind posting what you used to make this work? Thanks!
