Re: product features help need

Those aren't attributes (which are options that the customer can select from), but just a specially formatted product description. You can do the same in the product setup page description box.

Re: product features help need

This isn't really a Zencart question. You would style your product descriptions using HTML and CSS to look like the example.

There are lots of good HTML and CSS tutorials on the Web.

No file; you would enter the HTML for this layout in the product description input box in admin.

Re: product features help need

It's not something that will exist separately as options or fields to define; you will have to enter the product's info in the HTML.

You have created the information as attributes (and Model in the product details list); these will not go into a description table.

Re: product features help need

You seem to have some information that would go in the table created and displayed as attributes. This info cannot be "moved" into the table; you will have to re-enter it as text in the HTML table in the description.

It would be possible, with a bunch of CSS styling in the stylesheet and possibly the Flexible Attributes mod from Free Addons, to display read-only attributes in a format resembling a table.
