eStore – error in display after deleting a product

[bluebliss]

I had a list of 15 products. I deleted one at the top of the list, but now it shows up as a broken box on the page. It’s not in the Manage Products list and I tried resetting the Product and Category Relations table. I am running v7.0.7 of the eStore plugin and v381 of WordPress. The url of the products page is [http://foodielovefood.com/cooking-classes/]

What shortcode are you using on that page? Are you using a caching plugin? If so, maybe the cache needs to be flushed.

That was it! I had deleted the products from the Manage Products list, but their [wp_eStore_fancy2 id=x] shortcodes were still on the page. When I deleted the product shortcode the display was corrected.

Thanks for your help!

I guess this means that I can save products for future re-use this way, and use the shortcodes for removing ones I’m not using from the page…

BlueBliss, you might also try another approach. Use Categories. For example you could have the following categories:

“Current Products”

Then use e.g.

[wp_eStore_category_products_fancy id=10 order=3]

Where id 10 is the category “Current Products” (here the order sorts alphabetically)

Then to remove this product from sale, you just remove the “Current Products” checkbox from the product Category.

By the way, one way I visually remind myself that a product is no longer offered for sale is by deleting it’s thumbnail.
