Sorry, I should have said! I *AM* using Easypopulate, but I'm having trouble with the sheer width of the data too!
Was just hoping someone else had re-invented the wheel :)

Sorry Kelvyn can't help you there.

Also still waiting to get a response for my issue. Seems this threads gone dead.

P.S. Is Fun and Frolics your store???

Nope ... no limits that I have ever run into ...

You should be able to add all the Option Values to an Option Name that you need ... :)

Sorry to have to revisit this one.

Is there a limit on the length of the attribute text? I have items that have style attributes. They are fashion accesories and there are 2-5 of different fabric etc. styles for many of the items. The text it is truncated in the product description.

Thanks for your help.

What size do you have these configured to be?

The current limit is 64 but this needs to be set on the Option Name

If you need this to be greater than there will have to be several changes to the database tables.

HOWDY! I'm baack!
Seems lately I've had a run on clients who wish to sell printed invitations. Zen's a great tool for this as we have all these wonderful attributes. However,.... I am stumped

We are selling an invitation for 1.00
Ordering in groups of 12
1 time printing set up fee is 10.00 (think I can do this with a radio button and price yes at 10.00)
Printing per group of 12: (would I use a price offset in the attribute here and how can it be factored on quantity ordered?)
12=10.00
24=15.00
36=20.00
48=20.00 ...and so on
Would love to have text box text mandatory if select custom printing.
One could also order the card blank.
Here's a screen shot of what I've come up with so far, but I don't think its gonna work.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Cindy
