I had three columns before the upgrade and now i got one only. Settings have not been changed ! If thats the case there will be a fast update!

I have downloaded the latest version and it's fixed one issue and created another, so nearly there ![;-)](/media/kunena/emoticons/14.png ";-)") My categories now work as they should, nice one. Oddly though, my products have now dissapeared from view. Before updating, the layout was stuck to one per row for both categories and products, but now categories display 3 per row which is fine, but when i click on a category with 2 products in it, nothing shows in the proceeding page e.g no products. Oddly, a test link which goes direct to one product works fine, but the products display page linked from the category is now blank. Joomla page title is there and everything other than products. regards Justin --- Business Internet Services [ www.awebserver.co.uk](http://www.awebserver.co.uk) Optical Media Services [ www.webs4cd.co.uk](http://www.webs4cd.co.uk) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzM3MDA3LW5ld2JpZS1xdWVzdGlvbi1hYm91dC1kaXNwbGF5aW5nLXByb2R1Y3QtaW4tYS1ncmlkP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[uteco](/forum/user/5467-uteco "View uteco's Profile")** - [![uteco's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/5467-uteco "View uteco's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/5467-uteco) Less More - Posts: 43 - Thank you received: 3 - - 14 years 8 months ago [\#37225](#37225) by [uteco](/forum/user/5467-uteco "View uteco's Profile") Replied by *[uteco](/forum/user/5467-uteco "View uteco's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Newbie question about displaying product in a grid](/forum/4-how-to/37007-newbie-question-about-displaying-product-in-a-grid#37225 "Go easy guys n gals, i'm new ;-) I have built a site for free for my martial arts club @ www.northantstkd.co.uk and I 'was' using Virtuemart 2 but what a load of old tosh that is :-( .... anyway, so far I'm impressed with Hikashop and it all works how i want, apart from the display of products and categories.

It is possible that during that little problem you had before downloading the latest update that you have serveral modules linking to the same menu. If you can see many assosiated modules for the same listing menu, just delete them all and open the menu again. It will ask you if you want automatically have a module for the products created, where you say yes. You can then make the finetuning on that module. Hope it helped !
