How do I refresh the list of product styles? I've created a new *.tbl file but it is not showing up in the list of available product styles.

Same thing with the detailed page styles ... can't get the new *.tbl file to show up in the list.

As long as your file is in the styles/brief or styles/detailed folders ezimerchant should show them in the list. (you need to close/reopen ezimerchant before it will display a new file thou)

Ok ... my mistake. I've been placing the tbl files in the themes folder. That worked!

Next question ... is there a way to change how the quantity is displayed? For example, to have the word "Quantity" appear instead of "QTY"? Or to force a line break between "QTY" and the input box?

Just want to make sure I'm getting this right ... I was looking at the tbl files in the styles folder ...

Why is it that the <#LargeImage> and <#DetailedDescription> tags apply to the brief product styles and the <#SmallImage> and <#ProductBriefDescription> tags apply to the detailed product styles? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

1. Qty field.. You can edit a file in the /commonfiles folder called qnt.tbl

2. The tags... Yeah, they should... but they are not :-) - they seem reversed depending on how you look at it.

Under the common files folder ... there is a tbl file named "fields". Does this control the look of the custom fields? I tried editing it, but no changes were reflected. I am trying to edit the way the custom fields are presented. I don't want the name to appear above the drop down box. Is this possible? I tried creating a custom field without a name, but ezimerchant won't allow it.

Hi

Yes, the fields file does change the way the custom fields are generated.

If you change it, then generate your site the changes should show.
