"Starting At" price is empty OR price doubles when add to cart

[dhcernese]

What happens if you switch to the Classic Template ... does the price show up?

Could you browse your products table via phpMyAdmin ... do all of your products have master_categories_id to them?

Any add-ons?

I am guessing that this is Zen Cart v1.3.8a ...

This just happened to me. I was almost complete testing an upgrade from 1.3.6 to 1.3.8a, finished my long list of add-on merges and was testing literally the last one, COWOA. That included changing configuration setting (split login) and I was checking out the look of CSS buttons. The starting prices disappeared.

Classic template shows exactly the same thing. It was working yesterday. I checked, all the products have a master_categories_id. Nothing had changed for the product definitions or their attributes, all that was imported correctly a long time ago and I'm not changing any category/product/attribute definition.

I wiped everything out, uploaded my 1.3.8a merged files, created an empty database, imported my database export, upgraded the database. Same problem, even with the green classic template. So I guess the only explanation is that one of the very last merges I was testing is somehow affecting the starting-at price.

This wil be hard to track down. Ug.

You'll never believe how lucky I was. I found new code in functions_prices.php that assumes that product_type = 3 is something special, hasn't been renamed or reused for another purpose. I did reuse it and rename it. If someone else is using product_type=3 for anything you may need to comment out this code:

\includes\functions\functions_prices.php

    // no prices on Document General
    if ($product_check->fields['products_type'] == 3) {
      return '';
    }
