Hi,

I'm helping a company fix some problems with their site that was professionally skinned. The contractor that skinned it is no longer in business.

They are running v1.3.8 and have the HTML wysiwyg product editor installed, no other mods that I can see. As I am picking up after someone else, I have no notes on what code changes were possibly made but, I'm hoping someone here can narrow down where the error lies.

I have not upgraded the site to 1.3.9 because I don't know if their skin job will break or not. The only hints I've found in the template files refer to 1.3.7.

Ok, so onto the issue.

The company had been allowing customers to buy products that were not in stock and backorder times got out of hand, so now they want to stop allowing backorders to blindly take place. I said that wouldn't be a problem as I could flip a couple switches and it would prevent customers from ordering items you marked with quantity 0.

So I go into Admin > Config > Stock and change:
Check stock - true
Allow checkout - false
Show Sold Out Image - 1

After making the changes I lowered a product to 0 quantity and refreshed the product. Looked good in product info. Then tried another product; and when I browsed to the sub category product list items that were sold out had the sold out small image throwing off the alignment of the columns.

Here's before:



And here is after:



I looked at button_sold_out_sm.gif and it was a 1x1 invisible pic, hence why it isn't showing. I copied over the original from default template and the same thing occurs. It is as if the row of the next product begins immediately after the location of the sold out small button.

Could I please get some guidance on where I should be looking to get this resolved?

In fact, I wouldn't mind modifying the product list so that it doesn't show the button when sold out image is enabled -- and just have only the add to cart button replaced in the product info.

I tried to use the Call for Price feature (thinking I could just replace the button image and text as a work around) but it too causes the same alignment issue when activated.

Other possibly relevant settings in Admin > Config > Prod Listing:
Display Prod Price/Add Cart - 3
Display Add Cart Button - 0
Display Multi Qty Box - 0

Thank you in advance for the help.
