Magento: Multi-column dropdown menu - magento

I'm using Magento CE 1.6.
Briefly: I found exactly what I'm looking for here, but it seems like it doesn't work for Magento version 1.6; it's unzipped in the Magento catalog and enabled in the administration panel, but the menu doesn't change at all.
If there's no solution for this extension, is there any free alternative?
Thank you in advance!

Solution found: Ensure that the files in the extension goes to the "base" package catalogs; otherwise it will only affect the "default" package.

Magento configurable swatch (1.9.1 native) not switching image in main product page

I couldn't figure what's wrong but the native configurable swatch no longer work, it won't change the product image when different option is selected. I have tried the catalog page option and it worked, jus the main product page. Can anyone please take a look?

There is a conflict with "Onepage check out" from IWD indeed. However you don't need to uninstall it.
Just login to Admin Panel, go to 'System', 'IWD Extensions', 'Core' and set 'enable jQuery on frontend' to NO. That worked for me with Magento 1.9.1.1
In http://store.yocupco.com/skin/frontend/rwd/default/js/app.js file find
image.elevateZoom();
and replace it with
if (jQuery('.product-image').length == 0) {
image.elevateZoom();
}

Configurable product options not showing the options on Frontend

I am having problems with the configurable products not showing the options on the frontend. If I use the default theme that came with magento (rwd), all the options are there and working great. But if I select my custom theme, the dropdown options shows nothing but the default "choose an option..."
I have tried most of the troubleshooting but still the problem persist.
Console errors.
By the way, my custom theme is based on rwd built-in theme in magento. I only modified most of the styles and copied some phtml from the base folder.
This problem took me a day to figure out what was wrong and now I finally have an answer to my own problem.
Great Tip: Always check for jquery conflicts for this type of issue. thanks to #Chiragit007 for the hint.

Magento: Reviews and ratings not showing in backend

My version of Magento is 1.8.1.0. The problem is that I cannot see the "Reviews and Ratings" link under Catalog. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
I have recently upgraded from Magento 1.6.2 to 1.8.1.0.
Thank you very much.
Check System > Configuration > Advanced > Advanced and see if Mage_Review is enabled there. If it's not there at all, check that there's a Mage_Review.xml in app/etc/modules.
If it's enabled and still not showing, you may be missing some Adminhtml .xml files.

When importing items/categories into magento using magmi the buy now button doesn't appear

I have managed to make a csv which imports my products using magmi into my magento store.
All works well but the buy now buttons don't appear unless I go to the product and click save.
I've tried reindexing or clearing the cache but nothing seems to work.
Any further ideas.
I'm using the up to date magento/magmi.
Thanks
Richard
In the importer check the reindexer and the on the fly indexer.
That seems to do the trick!

Issue with Advance Featured Products Extension in Magento 1.4.2

I have issue in installing & using Advanced Featured Products Extension(http://www.mage-world.com/advance-featured-products-magento-extension ).
I followed the readme.txt (copied the files and created attribute for featured items) in the module.
But when I got to Goto admin->system->configuration , I am supposed find “Featured Products” option.
But I could not see that in system -> configuration menu. I tried clearing the cache & log in again, but still the Admin menu for Featured products is not appearing.
Has anybody faced similar issue. Any solution for this.
Thanks.
A few guesses (on a general extension installation note):
Make sure that your file permissions are correct (make them match other working modules)
Verify that you have copied the module XML file into app/etc/modules/
Check in the backend under System -> Configuration -> Advanced for an entry for your module (it should be present and enabled)
Once this is the case, clear out all your magento caches
Log out and in (I know you tried this)
Hope that helps!
Thanks,
Joe
Sometimes, if you're using a memcache backend you need to click the 'flush cache storage' too.
