Attributes dropdown or radio buttons not wronging

new install 1.3.9e with categories dressings and sitemap addons

The radio buttons appear always marked and if setup with dropdowns the radio buttons are there anyway. Dropdown doesn't work.

What can I do to fix this???

Is it a problem with my addons or with 1.3.9e?

Re: Attributes dropdown or radio buttons not wronging

You have set these up incorrectly ... :eek:

Currently, you have 1 Option Name and 1 Option Value for each of the Option Names ...

This will result in dropdowns appearing as Radiobuttons and as Radiobuttons they will be selected ...

What you want would be 1 Option Name with multiple Option Values ...

Example:
Option Name: Size

This would then have multiple Option Values for:
Small
Medium
Large

Now you will see the Option Name: Size and either 3 Radiobuttons for;
Small
Medium
Large

or ... you will see a Dropdown for Size and in the dropdown you will see:
Small
Medium
Large

You may wish to search the Tutorials/FAQ for:
Attribute
Option Name
Option Value

for additional information on them ... :smile:

Re: Attributes dropdown or radio buttons not wronging

Here is what I am trying to do and I have changed certain things but I have 5 or more different bearing under a subcategory name bearings each is a different price and specs. Sounds like I may not be able to do this.

Re: Attributes dropdown or radio buttons not wronging

Let's pretend I know nothing about what you sell ... :cool:

How about you post an URL to one of these Products that is not setup right ... then perhaps we can peek at it and help explain the better way to setup these Products for you ... :smile:
