Number of products visible in Store Management vs. Public Storefront

[Chris]

I am confused about the number of my products I see when I am in my Store Management versus when I am in my Public Storefront.  For example, my first category of products is titled 5 Symptoms of Laziness.  When I am in my Store Management, I see 39 products.  All are set to Public, none are hidden (or need optimization) and all are set to a G audience, so there are no issues with adult filters.  However, when I switch to my Public Storefront for that category, there are 0 products visible.  Likewise, for my 2nd category (A Fun Thing to Do) I see 43 products in my Store Management, but only 3 products in Public Storefront.  I have attempted searching by their keywords and I can only bring up those products that show up in Public Storefront. Can anyone explain why this is?  Any help is appreciated.

@Chris It takes a while for your public store to fill up as a lot of indexing has to happen behind the scenes.

When did you make the products? If it's only a couple of days ago - sometimes if the website is running slow, it can take a few more days. (I normally allow a week)

If in a week - they've still not appeared - report them (with links) in the Technical forum
