Post Customize layout for products? 
I am presently using productPage_4a for layout of my products and I just want to know that after clicking on the "more info" link, if I want to have a customized option for each of my product. Will that be possible? How do I go about it?
My store URL is http://www.nadioki.per.sg/store and the link for this question is in 'Apparels'. Very Happy

What do you mean by customized option??
It looks like you've been adding options to your products...

What I mean by customized is just like the default agora cart sample except that it is 1 more step.
From the Productpage4a, the products are placed in 2 rows and the difference comes in after clicking the "more info" link. For individual products, some will have dropdown of gift options, some will have dropdowns of colour selection and some will have dropdowns of sizes available. Hope this is clear enough? Wink

You can have more than 1 drop-down selection box per item.
The basic options editor can help you with that, or you can read up on options in the documentation in the 'protected/DOCS' directory of the store...

I have assigned different options in the agoracart manager under products edit but it seems like the "more info" link only leads to productPage-search2.inc
If I take away the script ppinc=search2, the whole thing doesn't work - leads back to the same page Sad
I am not sure what I have did before to disable the option function. Please help!!! Crying or Very sad

sorry sorry. I will try to explain what I want in steps.
1) Click on Apparels (left menu) and will lead to selection page
2) Click on T-shirts and the products will appear in productpage4a layout
3) Click on "more info" link and this will lead to the detailed product page with search2.inc layout.

What I want is this. For Step 3, if I want
- product A to link to the detailed product page with a dropdown menu of Colour selection and
- product B to have a detailed product page with size selection and
- product C to have a detailed product page with pattern selection.

All these are quite impossible to add in search2.inc to cater for 3 different needs.
I tried to set up the options file in the product edit page (meaning 3 different options files) but it seems that the product are not responding to that command. Instead they are still referring to search2.inc. Is it possible to divert them from search2.inc?
Hope I am clearer this time Rolling Eyes

Okay, let me get this straight...
Let's take, for example, the "Indiana Bone" T-shirt.
You want it to have:
a. A colour selection
b. size selection
c. pattern selection

You can set up a single option file as follows:
Code:

<TABLE CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR ALIGN="CENTER">
<TD>
<SELECT NAME ="option|001|%%PRODUCT_ID%%">
<OPTION VALUE ="Select A Color|">Select A Color
<OPTION VALUE ="Red|">Red
<OPTION VALUE ="Blue|">Blue
</SELECT>
<BR>
<SELECT NAME ="option|002|%%PRODUCT_ID%%">
<OPTION VALUE ="Select A Size|">Select A Size
<OPTION VALUE ="Small|">Small
<OPTION VALUE ="Large|">Large
</SELECT>
<BR>
<SELECT NAME ="option|003|%%PRODUCT_ID%%">
<OPTION VALUE ="Select A Pattern|">Select A Pattern
<OPTION VALUE ="check|">check
<OPTION VALUE ="polka dot|">polka dot
</SELECT>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

Then you would name the file whatever you want the option name to be.

OR, if you might use some of those same options with other products, you can make 3 separate options files, named color.html, size.html, pattern.html
Then you can combine them in a single option file for any other product using the following method:
Code:

<TABLE CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
<TR ALIGN="CENTER">
<TD><FONT FACE=ARIAL SIZE="2">
<B>Select Options</B>
</FONT></TD></TR>
<tr><td>%%Load_Option_file color.html%%</td></tr>
<tr><td>%%Load_Option_file size.html%%</td></tr>
</TABLE>


HTH!
