If you want to display the options as checkboxes, you will need to edit the file "option" of the view "product" via the menu Display->Views and modify the code there to display the checkboxes instead of the dropdowns Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzI2NzQxLXNob3dpbmctcHJvZHVjdC1vcHRpb25zLWFzLWNoZWNrLWJveGVzP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[uncletwisty](/forum/user/2510-uncletwisty "View uncletwisty's Profile")** - [![uncletwisty's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/2510-uncletwisty "View uncletwisty's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/2510-uncletwisty) Less More - Posts: 35 - Thank you received: 0 - - 15 years 3 weeks ago [\#26766](#26766) by [uncletwisty](/forum/user/2510-uncletwisty "View uncletwisty's Profile") Replied by *[uncletwisty](/forum/user/2510-uncletwisty "View uncletwisty's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Showing Product Options as check boxes](/forum/4-how-to/26741-showing-product-options-as-check-boxes#26766 "My client (a granola company) would like to offer a customized granola to his customers, I know this is possible through product options, but I am unsure how to show the options as a checkbox menu instead of dropdown.
