First problem was that my sidebar was appearing down the page on shop pages. solved this by adding custom css to the theme options as follows;
.container .clear {
clear: left;
}
Depending on how you have sidebars set (left or right) on your shop pages change the left to right in the css etc. My sidebars were on the left so I used "clear:left;"
I also had a problem with the add to cart buttons not working and fixed this by turning off "Enable AJAX add to cart buttons on product archives " in the woocommerce settings, however i then noticed i was getting a "Session Expired" error on the site when arriving at the checkout page.
I couldnt fix this so I rolled back to version 1.5.8 of woocommerce - instructions are below for those in doubt.
1. NOTE - you will lose changes if you edited the core woocommerce plugin files.
2. Download version 1.5.8 from here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/woocommerce/download/
3. Go to your wordpress install plugin folder via FTP or cpanel and rename the existing woocommece folder (woocommerce-old or similar)
4. Unzip 1.5.8 on your computer and zip the contained folder "woocommerce" into its own zip file - upload this to your wordpress plugins older.
5. Unzip the 1.5.8 folder into your wordpress plugin folder on your server - so now you have "woocommerce"(1.5.8) and "woocommerce-old"(most recent / offending update) in your plugins folder with other plugins
6. Go to your wordpress plugins page on your site and activate 1.5.8 version
7. Problem solved for now - and lets hope the team get an update out soon.
Thanks
