Add to Cart button not appearing on products w/attributes

Hi,
I just changed templates on my 1.3.8 site.

When you click on one of the Categories - every product has an "Add to Cart" button below it except 2 products.

The only thing I've noticed "different" about these 2 products is that they both have attributes set on them.

Can anyone help me to get the "Add to cart" button appearing on these 2 products - my head hurts from trying to figure this out!

Thanks!

Probably, with a link to the site. If it's the 'packages' site, I'm seeing Add to Cart buttons on all products except those sold out.

Oh, you mean the Buy Now button in the product listing. It says more ... because you have attributes assigned to those products, and adding them to the cart without selecting an attribute doesn't make sense.

I suppose you could replace the more .... with an image that resembled the Buy Now button that said something like 'Select' that took the customer to the product info page.

Re: Add to Cart button not appearing on products w/attributes

OK, well I feel stupid! that makes total sense - Augh why didn't I think of that?

Any chance I can beg for one more answer to a different question?

When I made the switch to this new template - any text in the Product Description 2 Box does not appear on the website.
Only the text in the Product Description Box shows up, so I had to remove all the text from all the Product Description Box 2 and put it into the first Product Description Box.

I really want to use Product Description Box 2.
Would you know how I can make this happen with this new template by any chance?
Or at least what to look for in a particular php file?

Thanks again - very much appreciated.

There isn't a Product Description 2 in a stock Zencart installation, so you've installed a mod (possibly this one: http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=271).

You'll need to make sure the files from the mod are in the proper folders in your new template.

Re: Add to Cart button not appearing on products w/attributes

Well, I thought you were right but I did install that mod and it wasn't the correct one.

I'm scratching my head of this one.

With my original template I had:

Product Description Box

Production Description 2 Box

This mod didn't provide that.

I can't for the life I me figure out how to get that Product Description 2 Box back.

but thank you for trying to help me!

You could check the files in all of the folders in your old template and see which ones didn't get transferred to your new folders.
