    Default color swatches...

    I just tried adding the attribute COLOR as a Dropdown, and then added a swatch and this is how it is displaying
    http://eclecticaclothing.com/store/i...&products_id=5

    I don't think this is right...but what I am looking to do is something SIMILAR to the picture I attached... So that when you click on a color the product image will change to that color...

    apparently no good way to do this....The only way I could figure out to display swatches was to make the products Additional images a color swatch... and to get rid of the "Larger Image" link that shows below each additional image.

    So now when you click a swatch (which is actually an additional image) you get a popup window showing the large image in THAT color. If anyone has a better idea please let me know.

    Can someone PLEASE tell me how to make the 'Size Chart' link in the screenshot? I've been fighting this for a while now. I'd like to use it next to my color selection for my decal website. I'm not interested in showing all the colors on every page but rather give the customer the link to click on to bring them to a page with the image of the swatches on it. This is exactly what I want it to look like. Not to beg, but PLEASE?!

    To rearrange the Attribute images you edit the Option Name in the Option Name Manager where it says:
    NOTE: Edit Product Options Name for additional settings

    Sorry to sound dense, but was that a reply to my question?

    Is there a demo site somewhere that I can see the attribute images in action so that I can decide if I want to go that route? Eventually I'm going to have 30+ colors for each and every decal. I'm scared that that will take up a lot of screen real estate.

    Sorry- I didn't check it recently- The best way to learn what Zen Cart can do is to install your own test/demo area in a subdirectory of your web space, when you do the install be sure to check the "yes" for the demo... there are lots of nonsense products that illustrate the enormous variety of settings and features.

    Urmmf.. Yeah, I checked out the demo when I first installed, but now I'm way deep in and it'd be hard to reinstall the demo. I would really only like to see if the color swatches feature is the workaround I need or not. I was hoping someone (anyone) who uses the feature or knew of a site that uses it could point me in that direction so I can see if that option would be viable for my application.
