Hello,
There is misunderstood I can't tell you precisely what's wrong or missing because I work from what you tell us... Be helpful on our code is more easy for us, but from custom it's hard and take lot of time.
Our job isn't to analyse custom because it spend too much time, that's why I speak about general advice and tips.
But from your last message I can tell you that there is something with your default frontend (that have been custom for sure).
See my screenshot :
As you can see there is some
missing code on this specific point, but I can't analyse
all the difference between default and your custom css frontend file, and I can already tell you that maybe your custom frontend css is from a too old file (old version of HikaShop) that's why you have to restart from the default (and current) frontend file to add your custom, the other point is that we all speak from the
same frontend file.
And so that's not a policy change, that the situation that is different.
I can too advice you to perform custom to use a clone of your webshop.
Regards
