    Default Weird problem with display of specials on home page

    Okay, I've never encountered this before. I added 3 specials in the admin. Enabled the specials box on the home page. Did the settings so that 3 show on the home page. Only two will show. Tried adding a 4th product in specials. Tried setting the numbers to display higher. No matter what...only two will show. Tried switching to unedited template. Still only shows products on special. Any ideas? It needs to be 3 showing.

    And your setting in the Configuration ... Maximum Values ...
    Maximum Display of Specials Products - Main Page
    Number of special products to list on main page
    The default is 9 ...

    Have you an URL that we can peek at?

    Are all of your specials active?

    More info....

    I have found that even going to the specials page only shows 1 product on special even though there are two of them set. So no matter what...only one special item shows and it's the first one that was set.

    Did you include expiry dates when you added the specials info? Are we still within the valid date range?

    On your Admin homepage, Under "Statistics", how many specials does it say are active?

    Tried it with and without expiration dates. Currently no expiration is set. Admin page says there are two active specials.

    One more attempt at trying to figure out the problem. I've done a fresh install of the cart but connected to the same db that way there are no mods getting in the way. http://www.flowerme.co.nz/sin/eazyshop2/

    STILL only one special will show even though there are two setup in the admin.
