Take flash light and look inside the drain. There should be water standing there. Please, confirm... 
 
Back to you.

There is water standing in the trap but there is a ton of white gritty build up.

Most bad smells from showers come from rotting hair and grease.  The solution would be to snake the drain line and then pour a quart of bleach and let it set foe a few hours.  Flush the mess out  whit a big pan of boiling water.  Smell better now?  Good luck.  Tom
