Radio Buttons/unlimited quantity

[Ajeh]

You would need to alter the module for the attributes.php ...

However, the reason this was done when a Dropdown contained only one value is that it gets obnoxious to click Dropdowns that have no choices ...

The code does automatically switch back to Dropdown as soon as there is more the one option value ...

This case statement would need to be turned off to allow the dropdown to processes as a dropdown regardless of how many option values there are:

                  case ($products_options->RecordCount() == 1):
                  if ($show_attributes_qty_prices_icon == 'true') {
                    $options_name[] = '<label class="switchedLabel ONE" for="' . 'attrib-' . $products_options_names->fields['products_options_id'] . '-' . $products_options_value_id . '">' . ATTRIBUTES_QTY_PRICE_SYMBOL . $products_options_names->fields['products_options_name'] . '</label>';
                  } else {
                    $options_name[] = $products_options_names->fields['products_options_name'];
                  }
                  $options_menu[] = zen_draw_radio_field('id[' . $products_options_names->fields['products_options_id'] . ']', $products_options_value_id, 'selected', 'id="' . 'attrib-' . $products_options_names->fields['products_options_id'] . '-' . $products_options_value_id . '"') . '<label class="attribsRadioButton" for="' . 'attrib-' . $products_options_names->fields['products_options_id'] . '-' . $products_options_value_id . '">' . $products_options_details . '</label>' . "\n";
                  $options_comment[] = $products_options_names->fields['products_options_comment'];
                  $options_comment_position[] = ($products_options_names->fields['products_options_comment_position'] == '1' ? '1' : '0');
                  break;

Thanks Ajeh for direction on where to find this logic. Much appreciated! I will give it a shot.

The current logic replacing the drop down with a radio button makes a lot of sense...I understand why it was put in as single-choice dropdowns are a bit annoying. However the feeling with the store owner I am working with is that they would like to keep the interaction consistent whether there is one size or more than one size available.

Thanks to Ajeh and gjh42 for all the help!

I wasn't sure where the logic was located. Since it is confined within the attributes module, there should be no overspill of effects.

( just thinking out loud, but if you only have one choice for size (as an example) why would you force your customer to make a choice at all? ... Very un-friendly to your customers )
