item attributes default

[gms]

I have an item that can be purchased with no options, an added $100 option, or an added $500 option. Because the Option dropdown doesn't allow "No Option" to be selected, I was forced to add an option called "--" with no increase in price. The problem is, "--" doesn't fall before the $100 option, so, without selecting any option at all, if i see the item on the detail page and select "add to cart", the item is added with whatever the first option in the dropdown happens to be. This is a BUG! (IMHO). But, how can I select the "--" option to be the one which is always listed first? ( I can live with the short-sightedness of the developers, but at least there should be a sort order for these if they can't fix the dropdown).

Any input is appreciated.

I must be missing something... I have the same problem, but I don't see where to fix it at. Where do I go to see "attributes options sort contribution"?

 

Thanks.

There's a ton of contributions (pieces of code) that people have written. They are all available in the Contributions Section (same link at top of page).

 

The "attributes options sort contribution" they speak of is probably: Attribute Sort, but presonally, I would recommend the Attributes Sort and Copier.(this one also allows you to copy attributes from product to product, which I think is invaluable......but choose that which meets your needs, no need to get too complicated).

 

As long as the Sort_option for the attribute you want "default" is the lowest available sort option, it should be the "default" (I think...(I haven't used the "attribute Sort" contrib, only the 2nd one I mentioned).
