Hi,

On the product management page there is an "Update option form."
On the form the third option down is the default "Price Modifier." I would like to change the default to "Product Variant."

Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

I will never use Price Modifier and each time I include a new product I must change to Product Variant.

Thanks for your time

Simple. Use webmster mode. Determine that the template file you want to edit is:

/skin1/modules/Product_Options/add_product_options.tpl

Find the code for the pulldown:

<option value='Y'{if $product_option.is_modifier eq 'Y'} selected="selected"{/if}>{$lng.lbl_modificator}</option>
{if $product.product_type ne 'C'}
    <option value=''{if $product_option.is_modifier eq '' && $product_option.classid > 0} selected="selected"{/if}>{$lng.lbl_variant}</option>
{/if}
    <option value='T'{if $product_option.is_modifier eq 'T' && $product_option.classid > 0} selected="selected"{/if}>{$lng.lbl_text_field}</option>

Re-order it:

 {if $product.product_type ne 'C'}
 <option value=''{if $product_option.is_modifier eq '' && $product_option.classid > 0} selected="selected"{/if}>{$lng.lbl_variant}</option>
  {/if}
<option value='Y'{if $product_option.is_modifier eq 'Y'} selected="selected"{/if}>{$lng.lbl_modificator}</option>
<option value='T'{if $product_option.is_modifier eq 'T' && $product_option.classid > 0} selected="selected"{/if}>{$lng.lbl_text_field}</option>

Learn to use webmaster mode, and you will always find what you need!

Thanks Carpeperdiem,

I am not comfortable with the webmaster mode yet so I FTP'd your suggested changes and they worked perfectly.

I am 75 and way behind you younger people plus I have a lot of learning to do.

I would not have figured this out without your help so once again thanks very much.
