Where did my products go in category listing?

[barneybruce]

I'm currently working on a site with several categories, and when you click on any one of them it just shows:

Product Name+ | Price | buy now

 

Displaying 1 to 2 (of 2 products)

 

 

with NO PRODUCTS listed.

 

I've looked in the /includes/boxes/categories.php but I don't see any reason why they're not showing.

Hi Fimble, thanks for your post.

 

When i go to "my store" i don't see anything about "experimental URLs" nevermind change them! I've got SEO URLS 5 added on, so could that be the problem?
