Hello there,

I have a question. I want to show options and their values on the category page.
Something like that:

Where "sizes" is an option and "41,42,43,44,45" are the corresponding option values.
Also i want to display stock status right in there.

I have seen some mods doing that, but they add functionality like selecting the options right on the category text, I don't need anything like that, just plain text for the visitors convenience.

Basically something like this page, but just not with attributes but options:

Thanks a lot!

Well, that would be called a Custom Extension. But you need
to use the product attributes, to only display available options, but
without any functions to them. It would be rather complicated, and
so expensive too, to create a Custom Mod, just to achieve such, I assume.
But other Custom Field Cat 'Sections' also exist, you might use one of them.

Good Luck
Ernie

As Ernie said: possible by a custom extension.
But is not that complicated as he says and also not that exensive.

But what kind of options you want to display?
Always only the size?
And what if you have 20 sizes, display them all - just in a row, seperated by a comma?
And would need also the OpenCart version you are using.
