I'm trying to style my site, and I'm able to edit most of the items to customize the code, but some of them I can't edit, or find where the code is located. For example, the item:

<mvt:item name="product_attributes" param="product:id" />

I am unhappy with the way it returns the image and form details, and would like to change it a bit. Can someone either tell me where this code exists, or help me to write a chunk of script to perform the same function? Thanks again.

You can't really modify it. This is why when Inventory Manager (http://www.designextend.com/page/miva/PROD/BROK_INVENTORY) was updated for version 5 an Attribute Template module had to be included.

The Sebenza Product Template Manager has an attribute template feature that uses StorMorph.

The Attribute Templates (http://www.designextend.com/page/miva/PROD/BROK_VC_ATTRIBUTES) module is now released separately from Inventory Manager.

Orange22, you can just "View Source" on the page that the attribute listing is on, go to that part of the form, copy-paste and alter is as much as you want, as long as you keep the input name and value.

But on the subject...is there a variable that represents the price associated with the attribute? Something along the lines of &mvt:product:attribute:price or something...?

If your using a module that gives you template control over the attributes, such as our Product Template Manager(PROD Page) or Category Template Manager (CTGY Page), you will have access to attribute/option price and cost fields.

Thanks for the quick reply. I realize you'd like to sell your modules, I'm sure they're great additions to Miva, but you're telling me normally there is no way to access these values?

Right, out of the box... there is no way to access those values.

Hey Scott,

I submitted a help ticket to your company for this, but you respond a lot faster on this than they do on that, so I figured I'd check with you.

I purchased the Additional Checkout Data and it won't let me put any 2 digit numbers in the total questions field. It cuts off the 2nd number when I click "update". So for instance, 21 becomes 2. Meaning the highest I can get to right now is 9. The module product page on your store says unlimited fields, so I know I can put more than 9.

Any idea why this would be happening?
