Updated changes not displaying

Post by ds_robert » Wed Apr 17, 2013 3:50 am

I have updated Catalog ==> Product ==> Product Detail Information but the changes are not displaying when I look at that product on the shop.

The details changed are the: Weight Class, Product Weight, Default Dimensions, Length, Width, Height

I have cleared cookies, cleared browsing history and refreshed the display in IE but the old details are still displaying.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Just sorted this out, but I think there is a bug.

On Configuration ==> Settings ==> Store Localization I had Default Weight as Pounds and Default Linear Dimension as Inch.

The old data I had was in these units.

The updated data was in different units and that changed data was not reflected in the shop display.

Having changed the defaults for Weight and Linear Dimensions in the Store Localization settings, the new data now displays in the shop.

This is illogical to me. If I set the Catalog ==> Product ==> Product Detail Information then that should be reflected in the shop display, or else the admin interface should give me a warning that the new data changes are in conflict with the Store Localization settings and cannot be updated.

The settings in admin determine the defaults displayed in the catalog such a inches or cm and pounds or KG.
Anything in the product is converted to this default measure.
The reason you can use whatever unit measurement you want in product is that many products may come with imperial measure while many others come with metric. This allows the store owner to easily enter in either and the cart will convert to the store default.

Very nice. It is a great thing to have a thought for donating but it is really good that you have donated. At least for this cause, you should grow high. Keep it up.
