I've been going around in circles on this!

I have a category menu on this page

staging3.bonzomedia.co.uk/index.php/charlotte-rhys-classics

When I select a category to view from this menu I see the products from the category correctly displayed but they are not selectable (i.e. there is no Choose Options link).

What I need is this view:-

staging3.bonzomedia.co.uk/index.php/char...arlotte-rhys-classic

Where the Choose Options is displayed.

I've checked the Content Menu for that module and can see no options for me to set to make the Choose Options appear...

Hi,

The "choose options" button isn't showing in this page because it's a category listing an not a product listing like your second link.

The content menu that you'll have to edit and that is displaying through the first link that you gave me is the content menu with the ID number 264, but you have to know that you can't add an "add to cart"/"choose option" button for a category listing without some development and knowing what you really want to do with these buttons.

OK - now I'm doubly confused!

The module that is displaying the list of categories underneath the top level category has an id of 171...

What I want to achieve is when the customer is viewing a product that is contained within a subcategory of the top level category that all of the other subcategories are displayed (as per my link above). When the customer clicks into one of these subcategories a list of the products belonging to that subcategory are displayed. This is happening, but I then want the customer to be able to Choose Options (that's the part that isn't happening...)

I would have thought that this was a standard requirement of any store and I'd certainly expect the default behaviour to show the Choose Options button!

Are you saying I can't achieve this without development work?

I check both of your links and they all have the choose options button.
There is no need to code anything to display that choose options button on product listings. You simply have to activate it in the options of the products listing. So simply check all your products listing menus/modules via the menu Display->Content menus/modules so that this option is activated for all of them and you will definitely see it.
