Auction Product Type

[kajunto]

sorry if this sounds dumb,,,,
did you create a cat called Auctions , turn it on, then add items making them available date wise and also enable them?
you could send a link to your site

Yes... i have a cat called "products up for auction"... i have one product in the category and it is enabled and the date available was set correctly.

The reason i asked which file controls that page b/c i had modified the tpl_modules_product_listing page and thought that might have been the problem. I have other mods installed so i made sure any code that did not match was added to this new mod.

Here's the page link:

One more thing.... if i add a product to the auction category and NOT SET it as an auction item... it will show up.... not only will it show up... but the other product that was SETUP AS AN AUCTION PRODUCT will now display.... but when i click on the product that is up for auction... it will still not display.

I am sure this has something to do with all the other mods i have on this site... has anyone else ran into this problem???

Could this have anything to do with Simple SEO URL???

Here's why i ask....

The URL for the NON auction product i have listed under auctions category is this:
http://www.cctvimports.com/products-...en-clock-p-980

and the URL for the product i have SET FOR AUCTION under auctions category is this:
http://www.cctvimports.com/product_a...-auction-c-254

notice how at the end of the url it is duplicated (products-up-for-auction-c-254/products-up-for-auction-c-254)

could that be my problem why the product is not displaying??? I know there is a way to exclude pages from SEO, but i am not sure what page i would exclude.

OK..... figured it out!!!

If you have Simple SEO URL installed you need to add product_auction_info to your excludes list... that will make the items display.

hope this helps anyone else who has Simple SEO and this mod installed together.
