-- url of the page with the problem -- : foreignpantry.com/shop/product/12-iget-shion-vape-pen
-- HikaShop version -- : 4.4.1
-- Joomla version -- : 3.9.25
-- PHP version -- : 7.4
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Firefox

I need customers to choose between 20 different flavor of the same item. At the moment, I'm using characteristics, but that makes the page too long. It would be far better, if users could select between flavors using a scrollbar.

Hi,

I suppose that you're talking about doing something like that:
www.cssplay.co.uk/menu/tablescroll.html
You should be able to do it with custom CSS:

I was more thinking of a scrollbar where I can select the variant/flavour, change the quantity if needed, and click the add to cart button.

Sorry, no, that's not what I meant. I actually meant a variant dropdown list where they can pick the variant they want, next to it is the field for choosing the quantity of items plus an "add to cart" button.

Hi,

So you're talking about the default look of the characteristic selection system no ?
If you set the option "Characteristics selection method" to "dropdown" (which is the default), and not "list" as you have it now, you'll get a dropdown of selectio for your variants and a quantity field and an add to cart button.
Something like this:
demo.hikashop.com/index.php/en/hikashop/...with-characteristics

Indeed, that's exactly what I am looking for. So where do I make that selection? After selecting "droplist" as characteristic selection method, the list of 20 variants/characteristics has disappeared, as intended, but no droplist where to choose the variant/characteristic/flavour is being displayed.

Hi,

The setting "Characteristics selection method" is in the HikaShop configuration.
If you don't see the dropdown there, then either your product doesn't have any variants / characteristics or there is a view override or a CSS custom code which hides that area.
Check with the default template of Joomla and you should see the dropdown there if your product has variants / characteristics, and it will confirm that it comes from a view override or CSS in your template.

I found the selection and changed the variant selection method to dropdown list with the result shown in the screenshot on my previous post on this ticket. No dropdown list is being displayed on the frontend. Only the list of variant options has disappeared.

Hi,

The characteristics area is hidden there because of this custom CSS :
Code:
@media (min-width: 992px) { #hikashop_product_characteristics { width: 50%; position: relative; top: -800px; float: right; } }
that was added on your end to the file templates/ja_autoshop/css/custom.css
