Dispalying Stock Levels

[bootz]

Hi there,
I need to be able to display stock levels on the item listing but I can't find how. I've been told it is possible, any body know how?

Thanks for any help

Have a look in the 'insert variable' list, there are 3 you can use. Just select from the list and they will appear where your cursor is.

Hi again,
Thanks very much.... but.. I'm not very clued up on web design, I'm trying to botch my way through this without destroying everything....... could you possibly tell me where that is?

Not really, because after your explanation, it would be like giving a child a match and a stick of dynamite. You will break things, maybe not even know that you have.....

...oh go on then, haven't seen it all go titsup for a while.

Select a product and then select the design tab, then from the window drop down menu select "restore split view layout". In the bottom window, you should see the code for your product layout, if not use the arrows to find it or the design tree on the right to locate it. Once on the product layout, place your cursor where you want the stock level to show, click the blue circle with a "+" sign on it and a white "V". The list of variables available will show, locate the 3 stock ones and choose what you want to show. The figures will show on the layout then. You will then need to add any desired text or styling required.

If that's gone over your head, then I suggest you get someone to do it for you.

LOL Lee, I've missed reading comments like that.

If you attempt it yourself, take a snapshot, check it's complete and then take another one and maybe a 3rd for good measure. You can't be too careful.
