 * Hey [@kmcg94](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kmcg94/)
 * It looks like this may be caused due to a theme conflict, or possibly a third-
   party plugin. I’d recommend the conflict-testing steps here to isolate the source
   of the issue: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/
 * The best way to determine if the issue is being caused by a theme and/or plugin
   is to do the following:
 * – Temporarily switch your theme back to a default theme, such as [Storefront](https://woocommerce.com/products/storefront/).
   –
   Disable _all_ plugins except for **WooCommerce**. – Test to see if the issue 
   has been resolved.
 * If that resolves the issue, then one-by-one you can switch back your theme and
   re-enable your plugins, testing in between, until the problem appears again. 
   This will then give you an idea about which plugin is the one causing the conflict.
 * Since these tests will impact the look and functionality of the site, we strongly
   recommend using a staging site where you can do your testing.
    If you don’t already
   have a staging site set up, check with your hosting company as many offer this
   as part of their packages. Otherwise, you can use a free plugin such as [WP Staging](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/)
   to set one up.
 * If you see that the issue _still_ appears when your site is on a default theme
   and WooCommerce is the **only** active plugin, let us know and we can look into
   it a bit more.

 * Hi [@kmcg94](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kmcg94/)
 * We’ve not heard back from you in a while, so I’m marking this thread as resolved.
   Hopefully, you were able to find a solution to your problem! If you have further
   questions, please feel free to open a new topic.
