    Default Why Can't I See The Expiry Date On Special or Featured Product?

    Shouldn't I be able to see the expiry date on a Special or Featured pruduct. I have set the available date and expiry date and I think I have it enabled but it is not showing up. What is the trick or what should I check to make sure I have everything in place to display an expiry date on a sale, special or featured item?

    The dates, by default, do not show on the Specials and Featured Products ...

    You would need to customize the display for that ...

    Oh ok...I thought that if something was on sale or a special for a month that it would be visible to the user to they know that a sale is ending. Isn't that the incentive to buy? ..not just knowing it is on sale but that they have limitd time?

    How would I even begin to get the expiry date in a template?
    is there another way to get a snippet of text in there that perhaps says "On Sale Until August 1, 2006" or "Offer expires Aug.1, 2006".

    I am surprised I don't see more people asking for this.

    This could be added ...

    Either added for a given page ... or added anywhere a Special/Sale has an expiration date ...

    Depends on how you want to do this and where ...
