On a website that uses Magento as CMS, the price will show up (by default) in layer navigation, left column. Price layer navigation is a nice feature of Magento, but it may not always be something you need for your e-commerce. Especially if most of your products have a similar price.
Here is a mini-tutorial to know how to remove prices in layer navigation!
To get rid of the price list in the left column is really easy to do. As usual with Magento, you have to know where to go. No need to make some dirty hack in Magento’s core, you can do it from the back-end!
Go to Manage attributes page : Catalog > Attributes > Manage attributes
Click on price attribute (Price, not Price view!) which is located on the second page. If you don’t find it at all, try the Reset filter button, if you messed up with list filters on that page before.
In Properties page (it will show up by defaut), under Frontend Properties tab, select No for the field labeled Use In Layered Navigation.
That’s all, prices won’t show up again in the left column! If you don’t notice any change, just refresh the cache in Cache Management page.
If you like Magento, I would advice you to learn how to make Magento SEO friendly!

Hi, Is this for an old version? Or updated? Because I cannot find the frontend properties tab.
It is for current version. Frontend properties tab is the second tab. If you can’t find it, may you list here what are the available tabs you have in the attribute page
Thanks for the informative tutorial. It saved lot of my precious time.

Hi,
Thanks for clue.
I was digging for Showing price in Advance search and wishlist.
In my case, display price was 0.00 for all products.
To show price in Advance search and wishlist, one need to set “Used in product listing” to YES and you are done.
Thanks for clue.

Thx for sharing. Not every time users need to filter by price. So, disabling it in Magento will definitely be useful for some stores.
Magento development is a best ecommerce solution for online shopping cart system and this post can be extremely useful for any magento developer
As per my point of view it is up to user budget, yes we can customize the layer but it all about the pre-request what the user needs to and how much he willing to pay.
Very informative post. Thanks.
I’m running 1.6.1 version. The price shows up as 0. It won’t go away.
Is there any way I can disable price totally for some products?
Hi, I didn’t try this yet on 1.6.1, only 1.5 but a I had quick look over the Magento forum and it seems it should work the same way as described. Are you sure you cleaned the cache?
