    Default Set up new attribute, but it doesnt show

    I have added new attributes - Size and colour using the tutorial and assigned them to the product, but it doesn't show up on the website.
    I am using a purchased template for my website design aswel (not sure if it makes a difference).
    After adding all the attributes, the product remains unchanged in the store

    What happens if you temporarily switch back to the Classic template ?

    Then I'm afraid you'll need to contact the author of your template and ask why that function was removed. It's possible someone here might spot something if we had a link to the site.

    The page itself is dying after the attributes section first loads. An example of a working site looks like this:

    <div id="productAttributes">
    <h3 id="attribsOptionsText">Please Choose: </h3>


    <div class="wrapperAttribsOptions">
    <h4 class="optionName back"><label class="attribsSelect" for="attrib-3">Model</label></h4>
    <div class="back">
    <select name="id[3]" id="attrib-3">
    <option value="5">Value</option>
    <option value="6">Premium ( +$100.00 )</option>
    </select>

    </div>
    <br class="clearBoth" />
    </div>

    Yours ends after:

    <div id="productAttributes">

    You might try saving the YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php file and replacing it with the one from the Classic template to see if that's the problem.

    Didn't work unfortunately, it removed the share via facebook/twitter etc etc but no attributes.

    This is a section from the tpl_product_info_display.php

    <!--bof Attributes Module -->
    <?php
    if ($pr_attr->fields['total'] > 0) {
    ?>
    <?php
    /**
    * display the product atributes
    */
    require($template->get_template_dir('/tpl_modules_attributes.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_attributes.php'); ?>
    <?php
    }
    ?>
    <!--eof Attributes Module -->


    <!--bof Quantity Discounts table -->
    <?php
    if ($products_discount_type != 0) { ?>
    <?php
    /**

    no idea if thats anything to do with what i need

    Default Re: Set up new attribute, but it doesnt show

    I have manage to sort this out by switching out the classic template file with the new template.

    Next question though is after some altering around, i have managed to get it looking how we want it, however im stuck again

    Name:  move attributes.jpg
Views: 144
Size:  68.6 KB

    The attribute box seems to have split. I need them both under each other (underneath where the please choose is). also the share via buttons are far too low and need to be up beneath the product image
