products that are on special.

Hi get a sidebox when I have products on special. everything works nice, I would like one thing though, can't seem to find it and was wondering if i'm seeing passed it.

When I/customers press [more] specials to see all the specials. There is a problem that the products there don't show any product description whatsoever!

If you normally stand in a categoryand look at the products there you see 3-4 words info on every product for example lots of my products title is "cat-back exhaust drift-spec" and the productinfo is different could be "fits civic 92-95 hb" and some other is "fits nissan s14" and so on.

but when customers press specials to see if a product that fits their car is on special they can't see since there is no text. they will need to press each and every specials product to read the text and thats not amusing for customer if 50products are on special.

how can I do this? to get the first words from every product shown (as its shown under "new products, when you search products, and when you just browse categories".

thanks
Dejan

Re: products that are on special.

I am sorry I can not help you out but I am having the same trouble.

When they click on "new products" it lists the items nicely with the description
http://www.ljgdesign.com/index.php?main_page=products_new

However when they click on "specials" it only shows images and nothing else.
http://www.ljgdesign.com/index.php?main_page=specials

How would I go about fixing that so it displays the same as the new items page?

Thanks

**** EDITED *** Never ever post in a forum, email, newsletter etc. the zenid or zenAdminID or you will be doomed!!** :eek:

Re: products that are on special.

When moving through your site you will see the zenid on the URL ... this is specific to that person browsing your site ...

As such, you never want to post the zenid on an URL, email, forum, adverisement etc. etc. etc. or everyone would have the same zenid and this would be a bad thing ...
