Description text for Product Attributes

[ktraving]

In certain situations it would be very helpful, if I could enter an extra text on my product attributes, that I can also hook/show on the product page, if that attribute is selected.

 

An example: The customer chooses "silver" as a color for their poster. In this case, it is important for me to let the customer know, that since silver ink contains metal, it reflects light more than a non-metallic ink.

 

Writing all that in the attribute name, would be silly, and writing it in the product description seems a bit excessive, as I dont even know what the customer chooses.

 

Any ideas?

As far as i can see that you are looking for attribute value description.

If so then you need to do programming to override some values from attributes class if you have know.

No know modules that will add this feature?

 

To clarify what I am looking for: See this module page and its screenshots

 

Unfortunately the homepage and the module seems pretty outdated.

Screenshots in this modules are of PS version 1.4.. 

I got the idea what you are looking for.

Let them ask for latest version if they are offering that module.

I have dropped them a mail, asking if the module will be updated for 1.6.x, but I doubt I will get any reply.

 

The webpage looks like they focus 100% on Magento now.

Great to contact him.

Also i have checked that they are mostly focusing on MAgento modules.

 

Thanks

You could use the hide / show use of css, by adding div elements directly into your product description like this

 

<div class="attribute1">This is the description for attribute 1</div>
<div class="attribute2">This is the description for attribute 2</div>

 

and then find out the value of the attribute and add some javascript like this

 

 $('.attribute_fieldset.quality select').on('change',function(){
           if ($('.attribute_fieldset.quality select').val() == 59) {
            $('.attribute1').css({'display':'block'});
            $('.attribute2').css({'display':'none'});
        } else if ($('.attribute_fieldset.quality select').val() == 58) {
            $('.attribute1').css({'display':'none'});
            $('.attribute2').css({'display':'block'});
        }
    });

 

That will then only show the description of 1 attribute
