Hello,

I am designing my first eCommerce website and I am wondering if it is possible to show products as drop-down menu in the main menu?

Running Magento 1.9.2.4

This is Possible so please follow the steps: -

1. Add lens_type as a custom dropdown attribute with all lens types as attribute options/labels. Set 'Use in layered nvigation'to 'Yes'
2. Add this new attribute to the default attribute group.
3. Reindex database
4. Insert the products and select the lens type for each product.
5. Add the products to the desired category.
6. Set this category's option 'Is anchor' to 'Yes'

Now you have a layered category with a drop down option where you can choose teh lens type.
