Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

I have a product that currently has must choose attributes.

I have tried to add a optional add type attribute that would cost a additional amount.

I have it setup but I can not get the optional radio box to be unchecked.

I have the Default Attribute to be Marked Selected: No

Thanks:smile:

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

Make sure that the Option Name is set as a Radiobutton and not as a Dropdown as the Dropdowns with 1 Option Value are automatically changed to Radiobuttons that are selected ...

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

Sorry ... my bad ... it is made that way on Radiobuttons also for Downloads and such ...

Could you change the Option Name to a Checkbox?

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

One more thing. :smile:

I know I can add this "bottom" checkbox to all products that have option name "style". That worked but it did not add the price or weight for the attribute. I know I can go in and edit the attribute thru the attribute controller but is there a way to set the attribute name with a price and weight?

Thanks :smile:

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

Go to phpMyAdmin, and look at the table:
products_attributes

and see what the settings are for the:
options_id
options_values_id

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

I need to rephrase my question.

Is there a way to copy this attribute to a selected products complete with the added cost and weight. I added it using the Option Value page in the admin but it simply copied the name and check box and value not the price or weight. I then had to go to each product and edit the attributes and change the price to +10 and the weight.

Thanks

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

If you were in the Attributes Controller, you could make a Product with the 1 Attribute and copy that 1 Attribute to a Product or Category of Products ...

NOTE: backup your database before using this feature so you can learn how it works ...

Re: Attrbutes add a option leave unchecked

Create a Product that is set to Out of Stock ...

Now add the 1 Attribute to it in the Attributes Controller ...

Next, use the Copy to Product or Copy to Category of products to copy that 1 Attribute to the Product(s) ...

If you want to DELETE all of the Attributes on the Products that you are copying this to, then select:
Delete first, then copy new attributes

If you want to Update an existing Attribute use:
Update with new settings/prices, then add new ones

If you want to Ignore existing Attributes and only add it if it does not already exist use:
Ignore and add only new attributes

Again, backup your database before trying this ...
