Add to Cart & Attributes @ Section Level

[Classix]

Hi we're currently running: v8.5.3 and we are currently SPP. i've seen a few posts on the forums but that don't seem to answer my question.

Cant i have my add to cart and dropdown attributes @ section level. If so, how can this be accomplished?.

Our current section layout is as followed:

<!-- SectionLine HTML begin -->
<!-- Insert HTML for the beginning of a section title -->
<DIV ALIGN="CENTER">

I think the AUG has been updated with the information youneed. If it's note in the V8 Advanced User Guide, try the one for V9.

[leehack]

I believe the AUG was recently updated in this area, worth looking at that first.

Cool found something in v1.7 that helped me put this into the site. i've completely battered it to get it to display the sections images how i want, can this code it tidied up any better that this?

I'm not sure if i took all the useless code out?:

Yes, It is in the v9 AUG, I was looking at it yesterday.
Try around p34 - "Single Product Per Page - Using Subsections"

Hi, just a follow up from my last post, the code i submitted (ie. the battered on) had clearly not been tested and failed to add the products to cart. I think it was because there was no quantity being given, but i've since had a play with it and have got it to work properly, whether it's good code or not is a completely different matter.

Is there any blockif rules that can be removed from this layout?
