Featured Products on Main Page missing Add to Cart & Details links...

I've been upgrading our sites to the latest version of zen cart. And noticed on one of our sites: https://www.sctflashdealer.com, after the upgrade it lost the Add to Cart link and the Details link for the featured products. I am not sure why this happened? It hasn't happened to the other 10 Zen Cart sites we have (all with same template and upgrade to new version of Zen Cart 1.3.9).

I've searched the layout settings, the index listing, etc and cannot find a show/hide area for these items. Could a file have become corrupt? Any assistance in pointing me to the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Jon

The centerboxes do not have Add to Cart/Buy Now features ...

You can always customize the code so that they do ...

Re: Featured Products on Main Page missing Add to Cart & Details links...

Please see one of our other sites for comparison: weldonracingdealer.com

The Featured products on the main page have the add to cart, and details buttons on them. This is true for all of our sites and was true for sctflashdealer.com but after the upgrade something happened?

I've searched the forum and google to no avail. Hoping someone else has an idea on what to do?

I'd guess that your Template Monster template added that function, and when you upgraded, one of the core files that TM edited was overwritten.

You'll have to see what files the template changed and re-edit it/them to restore that feature.

Re: Featured Products on Main Page missing Add to Cart & Details links...

I am using 1.3.9h.

I am trying to add an add to cart box/button on every featured product on the main page.

I tried to add

$add_code .='. <a href="' . zen_href_link($_GET['main_page'], zen_get_all_get_params(array('action')) . 'action=buy_now&products_id=' . $featured_products->fields['products_id']) . '">' . '<img src="my image link" />' . '</a>';

It doesn't work.

How can I add an add to cart box/button on every featured product on the main page?

Please help.
