We sell sunglasses and use options to select frame color, then lens color. We use Javascript code to pull pictures to reflect the frame and lens color choice that the customer has made.
 
Frame colors and lens colors must adhere to a sort order that we have created to keep things simple for our customer. We don't want lenses showing up in whatever order Viart decides.
 
So, I have created a 'Template Product' with all of the options already created in the correct order, the option ID's are also in a numerical order that works with the sort order that I assign. This makes it easy for our Photoshop macro to name images according the the Option ID that is assigned for each selection.
 
For a while, I was able to copy these options from the 'Template Product' into new products where I would then find the Option ID number for each selection and assign it to a picture. The Option ID was actually copying in numerical order in relation to the sort order.
 
Then someone deleted one of the options from the 'Template Product' by accident, and we haven't been able to achieve the same functionality again. I recreated the deleted option in the correct order, but when it gets copied to a new product, Viart decides to jumble up the Option ID's, making it impossible to use a macro to name the extensive amount of files we need in the correct order.
 
I hope someone here understands what I am going for here.
 
I wish that when you copied an option with a sort order, that Viart would copy the option and its selections with the sort order intact, and assign option ID's numerically according to the sort order.
 
Someone please help!
