Inconsistencies

does anyone else find it really annoying that the layouts for BS and NPs are listed in a different order within site options.

Wouldn't it be more in keeping with "Don't make me think" to list the 4 items in the same order for both features?

Behave yourself with suggestions like that... it is what makes Actinic so lovely in the first place.

Variables get listed in Site Options in alphabetical order of prompt - which sort of makes sense - but it means that the labels you pick for them are very important. That little beauty was added in after most of Site Options was designed (hence it's all a bit of a jumble) but you'll see I tried to make use of it with the Design Wizard panel.

Anyway, feel free to reword the prompts in order save your sanity.

ok so why don't you call them the same ie prefix them all with Best sellers or New products (inc location) so they are the same order.

Its abit sloppy..... because some of the prompts have best seller and others best sellers - the alpha list is mangled...and does not match New products where all propmts are plural

If we rename them do they re sort?

Hi Jo - are you talking about the variables listed under 'Best Sellers List' and 'New Products List' in 'Site Options | Settings'? They are in alphabetical order of the prompts (not the variable names) so I think we must be talking about two different areas.

Chris, i've just editted my previous post as it was abit harsh to ask if you were in another alphabetical universe to the rest of us...
