Product Copy Issue with 1.4.0.x - Search Box Treats Copied Products as Original Product even though no the same keywords

[Mav]

We need to use product copy function in the backend admin console heavily (+), however, every time when we copied a new product from a template, the search box always treats it as the old one.

I checked the database table structure and found the program always names new copied product id as the original id_product but id_lang as different - looks like copy a product only for translation purpose. I think the internal ajax search box should treat it as difference product if there's no the same search keyword as in the original product template.

I need to clear up this issue asap, which customers have complained a lot because search delivered not relevant outcomes. I think it's a serious bug for every user here.

Can someone shed some light on how to fix this issue either on database table level or on code level?

Thanks in advance.

You should be using PrestaShop v1.4 for testing purposes only, not for a live site! I suggest that you post a bug report.

But 1.4 is much better in terms of functionality and speed. However, 1.4.0.3 is not as stable as 1.4.0.2, so just retreated back to 1.4.0.2.

Since all data are stored in almost the similar tables, so it doesn't matter using which codes as clothe. In fact I pieced together 1.4.0.3 and 1.4.0.2 to make a more stable version.

Now, because 1.4.0.3 made more optimization rewriting, it's not stable enough. And I'm waiting for 1.4.0.4 within couple of weeks.

1.4.0.4 released today.
