How to Change the Wording Shown When There are no Auction Results

RochelleHow To...

Have you ever wanted to change the wording that displays when no auction results are available? Me, too.

The default wording is, No products matching your query have been found in our store. Please bookmark this page and come back soon to see if we have what you want.” I don’t like this wording because there is no way to bookmark searches, and this wording will also display when searches have no results. I feel like I’m misleading visitors by encouraging them to bookmark searches.

 

My instructions to change the wording shown when there are no auction results

Step One
  Go to the index.php file (click here if you don’t know how to do this) for your niche store.
   
  Save a copy of the original code (click here for instructions on how to do this).
Step Two
  Search for No products matching your query have been found in our store. Please bookmark this page and come back soon to see if we have what you want.” and replace this with the wording of your choice.
   
  Save changes and view site for errors.
