Side by side read-only attributes... possible? how?

Hello Zenners,

I'm setting up a "showcase" cart where each product - well, OK, I'll confess, they're hats - needs to have some read-only attributes, namely, size and colour. Here's what I am able to get:

But what I really want is this:

I got a bit of progress by editing tpl_modules_attributes.php - but it seems that the actual list of attributes is generated by

includes/modules/attributes.php

And that's some heavy-duty code I am deeply afraid to mess with.

Am I remotely on the right track? Can I somehow replace the "line break" with a comma and space?

Thanks!
Adam

Hello,

Did you have any luck on finishing what you were trying to do. I am trying to add buttons by the side of the attributes in the same row kind of like explaining what each option values are. I have the similar challenge you have. I have attached in the a picture below.

I will appreciate any help you can provide.

Thanks,

bump...where you able to figure this out?

The Flexible Attributes mod in Free Addons may be able to help you do what you want. An address to see what you have now, live, and a description of exactly what you want, will let us give specific advice.

Thank Glenn. The Flexible Attributes mod lets met arrange the Attributes side by side. Nice work! Although I should mention this is not what the OP wanted but it gets the job done for me.

Actually the spacing is too close together when using the mod. I sent you a message with further information. Hope you can help!
