Requires vQmod.
Upload the file structure to your installation directory
Under Product > Options > Edit or Product > Options > Insert > Add Option Value
there will be two new fields, Alias and colour Hash. Both are optional.
For a colour to be displayed, the Colour Hash field must contain a valid Hex Colour
Example #FFFFFF
or a CSS recognised colour
Example red
Alias is used in admin area only and is to help identify between similar shades of colours.
For example, You could use Option Value Name red as 4 seperate options, but use 4 different shades depending on the product, by entering a differend Colour Hash.
Once the options are assigned to a product, they will begin to appear on the category page as a colour block with your specified colour.
Colour values are now cached, if new colours are added to a product you will need to either remove the colours.* cache file for that product, or wait for the cache to expire, (1 hour on unmodified carts)
