Gary")* Hello Gary, Regarding the "Add to cart" button, you'll just have to set the "Display 'add to cart' button for free products" option to NO via "Hikashop->System->Configuration->Main". Also, for a free product, it should actually display the "Free" text that you can translate through your translation file.

Gary")* I really don't understand the problem here. There are two cases possible: 1. You want to show "0.00$" on your product page. In that case, you enter a price row with 0.00 or -0.00 and that will display that on the product page; 2. You want to show "free" on your product page. In that case, you remove completely the price row. As the system won't find any price, it will display the text "free" on your product page. We already provided the solution for both cases before. So if that's none of these that you want, then we don't know what you're trying to do.

Gary")* Hi, That default row is there so that you don't have to click plus to load the first row since most of the time, products have one price. But that price row is not stored in the database. When you don't have any price like in your product edition screenshot, you should see the text "Free" on the frontend, that you can change with a translation override. I don't see why you would get $0.00. That should only happen when you have a price with something like that: 0.00001 which would be stored in the database and then rounded to 0.00 on the frontend.
