moving attributes up the page?

fairestcape:

The point is this... a customer can click ALL the boxes (perhaps in error, but they can click ALL of them). The result will be a SUBMITTED order that could choose ALL shipping options. How will you know which one to apply? Do a test order (click all your options before you send it) to see what I mean.

You want a system where there is a CHOICE, but only ONE option value can be selected. You need to use radio buttons or a dropdown, and this requires ONE OPTION NAME, with SEVERAL associated option values. This will ensure that if I click ONE option, then decide that I want to change it and click ANOTHER option, my first choice will be "cancelled".

Hi, I was just wondering if any one could help me find a way to allow customers to enter a quantity of each option for example if they want size 2 of size X and 1 of size XX how can they click a check box for each and then to the right enter the quantity of each version that they would like, then when they click the add to cart button they get all three added to their cart. any ideas on how to code for this?

went to a backup copy and copied over the original tpl_product_info_display.php and replaced the one on the server, back to normal but would still like to move the attributes up the page any ideas?

Hi eggrush, I don't know a whole lot about this programming stuff but I figured out that on mine doing changing the order in includes/templates/YOUR-TEMPLATE/templates/ didn't work either, so (I think your not supposed to do this because it is not in accordance to the override system, which I still don't understand and which I don't think works on my site anymore anyway due to some major customization, but when I did try to add it to the place that I thought was my custom template (because its the only one other than classic and template_default) it didn't work. Anyway, long story over, I then did something that DID WORK!--- I did the normal suggested step of moving the attributes mod code further up in the tpl_product_info_display.php and then I saved it to includes/templates/template_default/templates/ and viola! it worked. but like I said I don't know if this will work if you have a nondefault template or if you want to retain the purity of the override system. but its worth a try. Hope this helps:smile:.

Hi again, I was just curious. Can anybody tell me what the Product details list is e.g. "<!--bof Product details list -->", its not the same as product description, what goes into the product details section normally? where do I edit them? and why have both rather than just the product description?
