Magmi import: Add To Cart Button not showing - magmi

I have managed to make a csv which imports my products using magmi into my magento store. All works well but the buy now buttons don't appear unless I go to the product and click save. I've tried reindexing or clearing the cache but nothing seems to work. Any further ideas. The same happens when i send an update import.
I'm using the up to date magento/magmi.
Hi,
I'm using this sample. I've already tried to update an randomly attribute of many products, to act like an "mass save", but it won't works too.

The 'add to cart' button will disappear if you let Magento manage stock / when the item is out of stock. Did you define is_in_stock and manage_stock in your header?

Try this:
In Catalog > Manage products. Select all or the ones you want. Action : Modify attributes.
Set
Catalog-> Manage Products-> X product-> Design-> Display Product Options In: to Product Info Column
Worked for me

Configurable products with same attribute_set not getting associated

I have a question for you, Magento/Magmi Masters.
So after weeks of struggling setting everything up in Excel for Magento to digest my database correctly, I am stuck because of the configurable products. I input the same attribute_set for both simples and configurable product, though when I upload the csv, the products do show up in the list but don't get associated. So I go to the "Associated Products" section of the configurable product in the Admin panel and see NO products at all in the list. I click "Reset Filters" but nothing shows up either. I have tried random stuff but haven't come to a solution yet. If you guys could give me a hand with this I'd reeally appreciate it.
Thank you all in advance!

Why is my wish list limited to one item?

Im using magento 1.9 and im having an issue with the wishlist, for some reason it will only let me have one item in my wishlist and when I goto add another item to the wishlist it replaces the item that was already in my wishlist, there is nothing in the configuration to limit the wishlist item im just a bit confused at why it would be doing this, any ideas ?
Right!!, after hunting the web to try and find a solution I have found a solution, you have to edit the file app/code/core/Mage/Wishlist/Model/Wishlist.php
find:
public function getItemCollection()
and change
$this->_itemCollection = Mage::getResourceModel('wishlist/item_collection')
->addWishlistFilter($this)
->addStoreFilter($this->getSharedStoreIds($currentWebsiteOnly))
->setVisibilityFilter();
to
$this->_itemCollection = Mage::getResourceModel('wishlist/item_collection')
->addWishlistFilter($this)
->addStoreFilter($this->getSharedStoreIds($currentWebsiteOnly));
this worked for me and im using magento 1.9.0.1
the source for this fix is here: http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/291225/
This is an out of the box feature, you do not need to edit any core code to fix this. Correction: You don’t have to edit any code
I had the same issue and found it was from an improper import of products and that website availability was incorrectly set.
It seems that Magento added a website filter on the wishlist collection to prevent items not available in a website from appearing in a customer's wishlist.
It also seems that items may not have a website value => which prevents wish list items from appearing (or just 1 item, the last one added).
How to fix it : Simply select your store products on catalog page, select ‘Update Attributes’ action and click on submit.
Select Websites panel and check your website in ‘Add Product To Websites’ block.
Reindex your data if necessary.
You can now add your products to your wishlist and see all of them in your wishlist. This is the proper solution and does not remove functionality from your Magento webstore.
Simply reindex everything in: System > Index management

make configurable product options independent on product view page --Magento

I am working on a Magento project and I need to know if there is a way to make a product's options independent to each other or unrequired. I need to use one of several at a time (I have 6 dropdowns).
I have tried add to cart by query string but all dropdown values were still required. I also tried to make all the options default, then modify the selected options in the observer, but I did not meet with success. See the screenshot below for more details.
Any help will be appreciated

Configurable Products in Magneto are only parent products of Simple Products. Whatever you have as an attribute of a Configurable - a Simple Product has to be present for each. To do this out of the box in Magento, you should be looking into setting up a Simple Product with Custom Options.

Configurable Products not visible on Front end - Magento 1.5

I have approx 30k Simple SKU with 950 Configurable products. I have used MAGMI to upload the inventory on my website. The inventory is successfully added to my website, I can see my simple products associated with configurable products properly. But the main problem is they wont show on the frontend.
I have done the following things
Checked the status if the item is in stock or not
Simple products have inventory in them
The main surprise is when I add the configurable product manually then it shows in the frontend. I am not sure what is the reason behind it. can someone help?
To make a configurable product visible in the front end you should only have to do the following.
On the inventory tab, mark availability as 'In Stock'.
Ensure there is a simple product associated.
Ensure the simple product has availability marked as 'In Stock'.
Ensure the simple product has qty set above the out of stock quantity
threshold.
Ensure both the simple product and configurable product is associated to the correct website.
On the General tab of the configurable make sure Visibility is set to
something other than not visible individually.
Re-index (System > Index Management > Select All > Submit.
This usually happens with custom product importing when a key attribute is missed. To prove this, try the following things:
Select a configurable product via the Magento Admin and save it. Then go to one of it's simple products and save that too.
Manually add the configurable product (you have already done this)
If either - or both - of these fix the issue, you know that the import has not worked correctly
Re-index (System > Index Management > Select All > Submit.
Problem Solved..

Why are my related products not displaying on my product page?

I have gone to admin -> manage product -> product information page -> related products
Then I added a product that is related, and saved.
I went to that product and refreshed the page, but nothing changed. Why not?
Also, be sure to check that the product you're trying to see in 'Related Products' is not already in your cart. Magento has a default filter applied that removes items in the cart from the related products collection.
Solution:
Login to Admin
Go to System -> Index Management
Select All checkboxes
Select 'Reindex Data' from Actions selection list
Click Submit button
Reference: Magento Up-sells Cross-sells and Related products are not showing up
Related Products appear in product info page, in the right column.
Cross Sell items appear in the shopping cart.
Upsells for this product are items that your customers would ideally buy instead of the product they’re viewing.These appear on the product info page underneath the product description.
As a result, I understand that you would show products bottom of the product info page, you should choose upsells instead of related products.
If you want related products ( which I can misunderstanding you ) do following things :
Check related product status is enabled.
Check visibility status set "Catalog" or "Catalog Search"
If everything is fine, check the inventory of related products.Stock should be greater than 0.
Last thing, related products must be include a category. Click "categories" link to check and see if the product added in a category.
Click on the "Reset Filter" button on top of the related product listing. It will list all products in table. Or you can clear cache + reindex data.
I had the same issue. After some time ago, I found that the products are not made to be visible in the visibility section, and that the products are not set to be in any website.
Hope this is the answer, and should be, because if you set up everything right there is nothing that can make problems.
Make sure the product and related product are under the same website. This isn't apparent when adding the relating products.
One possible pitfall you can run into is that you use a template without a right column. In that case you have to use unsetChild and insert to move the related product block.
