    When I go to Catalog / Product Types and edit Product-Hidden, I can see the handler page is document_product. This is probably it but don't know what php file to edit.

    Your issues have NOTHING to do with support for the hideCategories add-on.. You need to create a new thread and post your formatting questions there..

    Many thanks!

    Really? Wow. My sincere apologies for irritating you but yes it does have everything to do with the hidden category add-on. Otherwise I wouldn't be posting this here.

    I've installed all the files according to spec (for release 1.10), successfully created a hidden category, and an initial product within that hidden category...

    http://server27.lfchosting.com/fiest...roducts_id=222

    The category is hidden as expected, but the hidden product page has the page elements mixed up so I just need to find the php page that's controlling it so I can move things around. The order of things as it is...

    Category name
    Product photo
    Product name
    Price
    Description
    Add to cart quantity box
    Add to cart button
    Model (item) number
    Manufacturer
    Attributes

    I just need to reorder things to match products in unhidden categories...

    Thanks again!

    Not irritated as you assume... Simply responding to you and trying to help..

    If you used the optional files in the add-on zip file for using the document product type for your hidden products, this uses the default layout for the document product type.. What you are asking about is how to change the document product layout to match the default product layout.. That's not "truly" a support question (the mod does indeed work) as it is a layout issue.. Hence why I suggested asking this question in one of the layout support forums..

    I actually didn't need to edit that tpl_document_product_info_display.php file... if I COPY an existing product to the new hidden category, the formatting comes across just fine. What was different is I'd created a NEW product in the hidden category, entered the duplicate info, and THAT product page was jacked. If you instead copy a product into the hidden category, all is well.

    Took me awhile to figure it out, but thanks for a great add-on!

    You should NEVER edit any of the files inthe template_default folder.. You would instead create an OVERRIDE file..

    Glad you figured this all out, but any further questions on product page layout should be posted in a more appropriate thread.. I know you don't think that your questions are unrelated to support for the hideCategories support thread, but they really are.. You confirmed the add-on worked as it should. ALL of your page product layout questions (the order in which items appear on the product page) are OFF TOPIC for this support thread.. Therefore the layout of the product pages is a separate topic that has nothing to do with support/troubleshooting this add-on and going forward should be posted in a more appropriate place on the forum....
