Check if the root element also has at least this data inside the sve_object_attributes table:

Check if the correct class ID is set in the configuration:

  • check if the types setting contains the correct class_id used in eContent for product_groups. It is usually 1
  • check if the fields used for the labels are set: label_fields

siso_core.default.navigation.catalog:
    #the class id has to be specified here
    types: ['1']
    sections: [1, 2]
    enable_priority_zero: true
    label_fields: ['ses_category_ses_name_value_s','name_s']
    additional_fields: ['ses_category_ses_code_value_s', 'ses_category_ses_name_value_s' ]

Check if the field mapping is correct (the same has to be done for products: silver_econtent.default.mapping.product):

Products are not displayed in the detail page

Make sure that the main attributes are defined:

  • name_identifier
  • ses_sku
  • ses_price

The search says products have been found but none are displayed

Check if you have issues while building the catalog elements.

In dev environment, exceptions are logged to silver.eshop.log.

How can I improve the speed of getting a product by SKU?

Doctrine does not allow creating an index based on a part of a string. This is why it can be helpful to setup an index manually:

1
2
create index ind_datatext  on sve_object_attributes (data_text(20));
create index ind_datatext  on sve_object_attributes_tmp (data_text(20));

This example assumes that the SKU has a maximum length of 20, which should be fine for almost all projects.

Facets are lowercased

If facet names are lowercase, you need to set the index_facet_fields parameter for the specific fields which should not be lowercase. See Indexing econtent data.
