    Problem with product layout

    I have a problem with a product layout. Some products are showing correctly whilst others are not. The Add to Basket, Price, Quantity have disappeared on some products.

    Example of correct layout:

    Example of incorrect layout:
    http://puddle-computing.co.uk/acatal...nditioner.html

    Both are using exactly the same Product Layout.

    For the life of me I can not see what's wrong.

    Anyone else got any ideas?

    TIA

    this might sound simplistic but have you accidentally unchecked the "can be ordered online" box?

    Only suggesting it because I was alerted to a product on my website this morning which had no "add to basket" button and, for some reason, this had been unchecked (mis-clicked, I guess)

      Thanks Tracey - checked and all ok with ticks - it's very odd - not just add to cart missing but also price & quantity.

      Just found another problem too - the layout is ok on main page but not product pages - no idea what i've done!

        Are they both set to 'use parent layout' and have different parents possibly?

          Hi Lee - yes they are both set to Use Parent. Just about to delete everything off server and do refresh as got the added problem with layout not being same throughout - so will see if that sorts it.

            If they are both set to use parent, then check the parents and confirm they are the same. In fact follow the family tree right up the line.

              Are they being hidden behind the info boxes for some reason?

                Try changing both to a completely different product layout and see if they then agree, if not, something other than layout is affecting them.

                    Thanks Mal

                    No - it happens on products that don't happen with the info boxes.

                        You must be bored Lee!!

                        That is very odd because when i look at the Product Layout the name is the same within actinic - will go off and investigate further.

                          I looked at the source code but when I saw it all I couldn't be ar**d, I think Lee should get a Goat point for perseverance, if percy doesn't want it I'll have it.

                            Right decided too late to be doing this after long day so going to call it a night and investigate more in the morning.

                            Thanks everyone - never expected to get so many replies at this time of night.

                            Night all

                              Problem solved - it was me all along

                              So that I could get the Price & Add to Basket to appear before the info in tabs, I created the variables and put them in [EXTRATEXT] which then needed to be entered in the correct place in the product description and of course I had forgotten to put it in most of the product descriptions.

                              Glad it was something so simple to rectify!
