Three Extra Options for Products

Hi I need to create three extra input options for products listings. The default ones are as follows which are found under configuration - Product Listing

Display Product Image
Display Product Manufacturer Name
Display Product Model
Display Product Name
Display Product Price/Add to Cart
Display Product Quantity
Display Product Weight
Display Product Price/Add to Cart Column Width
Display Category/Manufacturer Filter (0=off; 1=on)
Prev/Next Split Page Navigation (1-top, 2-bottom, 3-both)
Display Product Listing Default Sort Order
Display Product Add to Cart Button (0=off; 1=on; 2=on with Qty Box per Product)
Display Multiple Products Qty Box Status and Set Button Location
Display Product Description 150
Product Listing Ascending Sort Order +
Product Listing Descending Sort Order -
Include Product Listing Alpha Sorter Dropdown true
Include Product Listing Sub Categories Image true
Include Product Listing Top Categories Image true
Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating

I need to add three extra options under listings for product size, year and tasting notes. These will then also need to be available to be updated through product listings in the siteadmin.

Please can somebody give me some help on how I can achieve this.

Thanks

Nick

Re: Three Extra Options for Products

You cannot achieve this in the way you're thinking without writing a mod or add on, which involves writing new code. (there may already be one in the add on section, but I can't say for sure. go take a look)

Your other alternative is to set up product attributes, which you can do through the admin panel (under catalog/attributes controller).

Here is a tutorial on the subject. https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=57
