You can turn it off for all products entered as a certain product type by going to Admin->Catalog->Product Types->Product General->Edit Layout ... "Show Quantity in Stock" and setting it to False.

Hi i have found what you are referring too many thanks. BUT is there a way that I can disable the quantity for a small selection of products that are listed as Product Type - Product General.

90% of my products are ok to have their qty listed/displayed but 10 other 10% i do not want anyone to see my qty etc. How do I do this?
Regards

There is nothing built-in to do that. You could always write code to make it happen.

One approach could be to edit your tpl_product_info_display.php template and change the logic to exclude certain products. This is the code that does the display:

Code:

  <?php echo (($flag_show_product_info_quantity == 1) ? '<li>' . $products_quantity . '</li>'  : '') . "\n"; ?>

You could write some code to reset the indicated flag to 0 if the product currently being displayed should not show quantity.

Thanks for the reply Dr Byte but at the moment my coding skills do not warrant this so I will just have to wait until someone else submits something along these lines or I get the chance to learn more about the coding required.
Many thanks for all the replies :)
