Okay, I am trying to convert an existing node type to a product type in Drupal and am following these instructions from this page:

http://www.ubercart.org/docs/user/10963/understanding_product_classes

Creating and configuring a product class:

1. Browse to Administer › Store administration › Products > Manage classes.

I get what I am trying to do, but when I go to Store Administration > Products there is no 'Manage Classes' there.

What am I missing?

I have check to make sure that the product module for ubercart is activated in Drupal.

Re: Problem Creating Product Classes

Do you have permissions to manage product classes?

If you go to /admin/store, there should be a dashboard there. If you click the "Show links" underneath the big "Product" heading, do you see a "Manage classes" there?

No, there is no 'Product' big heading there - just 'reports' and 'orders'.

I looked at the product module under the ubercart heading and the module is activated.

This issue is well beyond the realm of normal Ubercart support. It could be anything from a misplaced file to some crazy caching. At this point, I'd suggest re-uploading Ubercart to make sure some file isn't out of place / the wrong version. Ensure you have only one copy of Ubercart in your modules file. Empty your cache through the performance settings menu. Basically, do anything to ensure you have a normal installation, and if you still can solve it, then I'd just have to recommend a fresh install. Please let us know what works. There's nothing else I can recommend.

Just to add that I'm having exactly the same issue - using Drupal v6.16 with Ubercart 6.x-2.2. The only thing which occurs to me is that I'm using the Admin module which generates a special theme for the admin areas - maybe that's involved?

In any case, I got around the issue by manually entering /admin/store/products/classes... the page appears with no problem.

I spent a few minutes today looking for the "Manage Classes" and finally found a link, but I had to disable the Admin module (also did not work with the Admin Menu module). When I go to /admin/store there is no dashboard... only the "Store Administration" header and the "Status Messages". But when I disabled the Admin module, then it finally gave me the "Product" header along with the "Show links" below the "Products" header. Unforunately, this is the only place I ended up finding the link to manage the Ubercart product classes. I like to use the admin module though, so it's just going to be easier to access the Manage Classes page through the direct path at admin/store/products/classes.
