Any help is appreciated, thanks, Scott")* Hi, In each product and in each category, you have the setting "layout on product page" which allows you to select a layout for the product page. If some of the products have one layout and others have another layout, it's likely that this setting has been changed for some products/categories compared to the others.

Any help is appreciated, thanks, Scott")* Hi Nicolas, Thank you for the quick response. Sadly, at present there are only 6 products and they are all in the same category. I've rechecked the settings in both the individual products and the product parent category and all of them are set to "Hikashop Default". This is my first time working with Hikashop and I may have inadvertently changed the wrong settings. Is there possibly another setting elsewhere that may be affecting the layout. I need to make sure that the tab with the title "Description" appears at the bottom of every product page. I'd be very appreciative if you could take a look under the hood and see where I've gone wrong.
