A simple product can be created in this way: $pr = Mage::getModel('catalog/product'); $pr->setAttributeSetId($att_id); $pr->setSku($variantcode); $pr->setTypeId('simple'); $pr->setName('Simple product name'); $pr->setDescription('Simple product desciption'); $pr->setShortDescription('Simple product short description'); $pr->setCreatedAt(strtotime('now')); $pr->setStatus(1); $p… text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:40+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/magento/default-address-for-shipping-estimation?rev=1448753140 If you like to show the shipping rates on the cart page, you should enter the default address in the shipping settings and apply the following change.

For a 200,000 product database it might give out a few thousand products for a search term where the first ones are not relevant. Additionally, most likely the search would be rather slow in this situation.

So, for example, you are expecting to see the “some product” as the next one, but actually you see “another product”. This problem is related with the products sort order when the products are selecting by previous-next module.
