More Info Link and Buy Now Button

On my All Products and New Products pages, I have some products that have a More Info link and some that have a Buy Now button. It seems to have to do with the length of the product description, but I'd like them both to be the same. How can this be done?

Thanks!

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

It is NOT the product description. You have attributes on the products that are showing more info. Those products can not be added to the cart without a choice made by the customer.

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

I see. So is there a way to make it so that the products without attributes also show the More Info link instead of the Buy Now button?

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

In the Configuration ... Product Listing ...

Display Product Add to Cart Button (0=off; 1=on; 2=on with Qty Box per Product)
Do you want to display the Add to Cart Button?

NOTE: Turn OFF Display Multiple Products Qty Box Status to use Option 2 on with Qty Box per Product

Set to 0 and all buy now buttons change to the: ... more info

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

Is there a way to have this happen on the All Products and New Product pages as well? I still have a combination of the Buy Now and More Info on these two pages.

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

This post matched my problem, so I`ll go ahead and post it here, instead of starting a new tread.

Is there a way to replace the more info with buy now button? I know "more info" is showing because of the attributes, but it would be nice to replace it with a buy now button. The buy now button can have the same link as "more info", only showing buy now, so all the products are the same..

Anyone know what to put into the php file? And what file to edit?

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

You could replace the text with an image in the language file - but, would that be confusing to your customers?

Re: More Info Link and Buy Now Button

Kim, It's probably more confusing to not have a Buy More button on some of your products. This sort of inconsitency makes store usage less intuitive.

The second problem is very easy to fix...
You would probably put a note in the product info page they get led to saying something like "You need to select {mandatory attribute name(s)} to Add this to your Cart!"
