Default Force Customer to Select a Size

I am having problems with customers buying goods but not selecting the size they require.

There is an option to select size but I need to be able to force them to select this.

I think this is something to do with attributes controller but I am unsure how to fix this.....can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Do you have the attributes mod added?
I may be wrong but I am sure there is a glitch on this one.
I have had a few occasions where customers have ordered but missed out the size and it has gone through checkout.
However whenever I test it out it doesn't let me checkout

You have to set up Option Value, and then Option Name,
which is set as default and makes customer choose
i.e. as per

Blushfashions, not all the time though but think I may know what it is.well I thought I did but proved my theory wrong half an hour ago
Its not that much of a problem as it is very rare someone places an order without picking a size etc

Product above.. I can add to cart without being
forced to choose size and/or colour.
You need to set up two options, each set as default
i.e. 1 for size and 1 for colour..

Dezina,

Would you please mind spelling this out to me step by step.

I have small, medium and large sizes.

At the moment I have the attributes set as follows:

Option : size

Name : small (size)
medium (size)
large (size)


I am not sure how to change this using default etc. but if I can just get one item correct then I am sure the rest will be easy ? !!
