Date Selector missing on add new product page

[Gimpz]

Hi

 

I've recently installed my shop.

 

I had some 'products expected' listed properly - then one day they were not showing.

 

I sniffed around and I found that when I go add a new product or edit an existing one there is NO date selector. It's completely dissapeared!?

 

This is really strange. I know I edited my date settings in includes/languages/english.php & in admin/includes/languages/english.php as I wanted the date format to be dd/mm/yyyy (which is working) but I have a suspicion that I might have broken something along the way somewhere....

 

Please can someone assist me.

 

I've attached an image of my admin section showing where it's missing.....

Anyone able to assist?

Guess this must be something unusual as no one seems to know what to do haha...

 

 

Sigh oh well.... :(

HAAAAALP ! :(

You have edited admin/categories.php

 

Go back and check you followed the installation instruction exactly. Then check again.

Not sure it's that. I re-uploaded the original catergories.php and it's still the same?

 

Any other ideas?

Look and see what categories.php is calling to display the calender.

 

Do those files exist int those directories, what are the permissions?

[Gimpz]

I'm still new at this all. Please have a look at my file and let me know if you see anything?
