    Default Attributes stopped working

    Is there any code in the tpl_header or the tpl_main_page that would cause the attributes to stop working? I'm asking because my attributes (very simple radio buttons for S M L) used to work but are not anymore. I have taken out some code in tpl_header and re-arranged some code in tpl_main_page. I'm now looking to see if I broke anything regarding the attributes. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    Check that the attributes are being drawn between the starting <form> tag and the ending </form> on the page ...

    Default Re: Attributes stopped working

    I checked the original pages, the ones before I edited them, and there are no form tags anywhere.

    Basically, each radio button for S M L is ticked so and won't let me untick any of them so when add to cart, it shows all three sizes. Obviously only one size should be ticked. I've made sure I've set the attributes correctly. When I first set them up, they were working fine. Now if I try and change anything to do with them, nothing changes. I tried making them a drop down box (just to see) but they remained as radio buttons.

    You appear to have made 3 Option Names and 1 Option Value for each of the 3 Option Names ...

    You want 1 Option Name like: Size

    and set this as either a Dropdown or Radiobutton ...

    Then, add the 3 Option Values to the Option Name: Size ...

    OK I've done that and it's working now. I'm so relieved I didn't break anything! Thanks so much.

    Default Re: Attributes stopped working

    You are most welcome ... thanks for the update!

    NOTE: I recommend adding an extra Option Value like:
    Pick something
    Sort Order 0
    Display Only YES
    Default: YES

    This forces the customer to make a real choice and not forget to choose or accidentally choose your default setting ...
