Unlimited Quantity not working

[Tech NO Babble]

Hi all,

Zen Cart v1.3.9d upgraded from osCommerce using a sql mod.
No addons, only css changes to the header.
I have looked through the FAQ and Googled the info I am looking for.

I have turned off quantity from showing up in the store, so if you look at a product you won't find the amount in stock. Used Catalog/product types/product-general/show quantity in stock (value=0) drop down box shows False.

What we need is for the store owner not to have to worry about stock levels, she orders stuff all the time and she doesn't want to change the stock in the store online and her store's software. (I know that's not good business sense, but anyway)

In Configuration/product listing/ Display Product quantity (value=0)
In Configuration/stock/check stock level (value=false)
In Configuration/stock/subtract stock (value=false)
In Configuration/allow checkout (value=true)
In Configuration/mark product out of stock (value=***)

I am not sure what I am missing, but items still end up out of stock and then you can't order them. I really didn't want to have to go through all the items in the store and add 1,000,000 to each for the amount in stock.

Thanks for your help,

Alex

Might be the highlighted one???

Check stock level  	false	 
Subtract stock 	false 	
Allow Checkout 	true 	
Products status in Catalog when out of stock should be set to  1

You were already there from what you posted

admin > config >stock >

Thanks kobra, I got lost trying to find that section.

So "Mark product out of Stock" Display something on the screen so customer can see which product has insufficient stock.

You said put 1 there, and I see how that would make the customer think there was 1, but my original problem was that the cart wouldn't allow the order because the stock was 0. Does the above fix that?

Thanks
