There is one thing I can think of besides all this: In each category, you also have a "quantity input method" which will override the "quantity input method" setting of the HikaShop configuration for the products of the category. This can be overridden by the "quantity input" setting of the product itself, but since you set that one to "inherit", it will use the input method from the categories of the product and if they are all set to "inherit", it will use the one from the configuration. So I'm suspecting you might have set that setting to "none" in the category(ies). And supposing that's the case, you probably did that because you wanted to remove the quantity input from the listings of the products of that category. But what you should have done instead is to change the settings of the menu item / module to turn off the "show quantity input" setting.

I have used the same settings from my live site ( using older joomla 3 and old Hikabusiness) but still not displaying. Thanks Paul Kemp")* Hi, From what I can see on the screenshot [ www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/attachments/11886/Billbo-3.jpg](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/attachments/11886/Billbo-3.jpg) the category linked to the product is the category with the name "GB1 Budget". So you should check the "Quantity input method" setting of that category. Also, if the product is in multiple categories (the categories setting of the product was not on your screenshots so I don't know), then you should check the other categories too. If you could put your website online and provide a backend access, we could have a look at it directly. We can do 1 on 1 support with TeamViewer or other software. However, this service is not included in the normal HikaShop support. So in that case we would need to charge you for an hour of support (60€). If you're interested, you can use our contact form so that we can discuss a date and time and the details of the meeting : [ www.hikashop.com/support/contact-us.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/contact-us.html) The following user(s) said Thank You: [PaulLenton](/forum/user/11886-paullenton "View PaulLenton's Profile") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzI2LXByb2R1Y3QtY2F0ZWdvcnktZGlzcGxheS85MDUwNDAtcXVhbnRpdHktZmllbGQtbm90LXNob3dpbmctb24tcHJvZHVjdHM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[PaulLenton](/forum/user/11886-paullenton "View PaulLenton's Profile")** - [![PaulLenton's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/11886-paullenton "View PaulLenton's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/11886-paullenton) Less More - Posts: 50 - Thank you received: 1 - - 4 years 1 month ago - 4 years 1 month ago [\#344944](#344944) by [PaulLenton](/forum/user/11886-paullenton "View PaulLenton's Profile") Replied by *[PaulLenton](/forum/user/11886-paullenton "View PaulLenton's Profile")* on topic *[Quantity field not showing on products](/forum/26-product-category-display/905040-quantity-field-not-showing-on-products#344944 "-- url of the page with the problem -- : localhost -- HikaShop version -- : 4.6.1 business -- Joomla version -- : 4.2.2 -- PHP version -- : 8.1.0 -- Browser(s) name and version -- : Chrome Hi, I have just started to rebuild my website on my pc ( localhost ) with a fresh install of Joomla and Hikashop Business.

I will look at setting up a temp site online as my old site is still running joomla3 so will let you know the details when I have done this.
