    Default Choice-dependent Option Name Values ??

    I am trying to setup a product that has quite a number of options. One option is Phone Model. I would then like an option Colour that gave different values depending on what phone model is selected take a look here http://home2gifts.co.uk/index.php?ma...&products_id=3
    Does anyone know if this is possible?

    What you are describing is "dependent attributes" and there is no facility in ZenCart for them at the present time (without using additional plugins)

    Do you know of any plug-ins that enable this?

    Some people have used a combination of two plugins (Stock By Attributes and Dynamic Dropdowns for Stock by Attributes) to enable something similar to what you're after.

    But, those are advanced plugins which make significant changes to original Zen Cart code, and will make upgrades somewhat more complicated.

    If you're not comfortable installing plugins which alter existing files then you might find this a complex task.
