I have 3 other manufacturers pages showing product but I cannot get this one to show up. The products are listed in the products list tab on the manufacturers admin page too. SO I did a comparison of what parameter could be different I cannot find it. All products are mapped to manufacturer.

Any insights on why this particular manufacture is not displaying product on its page?

Nevermind I dug deeper and one must be careful that there are TWO publishing check boxes. One for the root and one for the auto generated variant.
