    Default ShopKart adding an "s" onto the end of my customization options?

    I've created a few new product attributes in ShopKart. When I do that there is a user-defined field that specifies the name of the attribute and then another user-defined field that specifies the name that the customer sees under the "customization options" portion of the product detail screen.

    No matter what I type into the field that specifies what the customer sees, ShopKart adds an "s" onto the end of it. For example, I created an attribute named "color fill". I then specified that the customer would see this option as "Color Fill for Engraving". However, when I pull it up on my retail site, it shows up as "Color Fill for Engravings".

    Is this a bug?

    the name should always be singular. When the name is used in a singular context, the s will not be added. However when the name is used in a plural context the s is added. Instead of "Color Fill for Engraving" maybe try "Color Fill Option" since its an option the customer is choosing and then when it is used in the plural context, it will be "Color Fill Options"

    Other Example:

    "Figure" when plural is "Figures"
    "Column" when plural is "Columns"
    etc
    etc

    The plural is used in the listing of "Customization Options" and since this particular context is to show the various "Option(s)" the S is added

    However, when the customer adds to cart they can only select ONE (singular) Option from the list of choices, thus the plural S is not added.
