    Default Multi Choice

    I'm trying to set up products with one attribute but multi choice.
    Example:
    The product is multi colored
    so i would like to have 1 attribute called color with all the color options and they can pick the 5 colors without having 5 different color attributes

    Hi eaddesigns,
    If I'm understanding you correctly then what you want is just a basic attribute?

    Lets say you want it in a dropdown box:
    Goto admin->catalog->option name manager make an attribute called color and select dropdown.

    Then goto admin->catalog->option value manager select the color option and make the first option "select color" (or whatever you want it to say).

    Repeat this process for the colors you have "red", "blue", "green" etc.

    Now goto admin->catalog->attribute controller. Select the product you want to apply the attribute to then scroll down to the editing part and select color from the option names box and the first option "select color" from the option value box, repeat this process for all colours.

    Finally you'll see 6 colored boxes next to every option, make sure the option for "select color" has the display only box colored and the default box colored.

    Thats it

    We have over 30 colors and if a products is multi color I would like the customer to be able to pick 6 colors with one attribute.
    I don’t want to have 6 different attribute with all the colors and say color 1, color 2 etc,
    Like on this product. if it was a multi color product they could select 5 colors.

    You could use checkboxes and then they can select various colors, only problem with that is it will take up quite a bit of space if you have 30 colors.
