title: Magento : how to properly move custom simple products options in the right column on product page?
body: <p>i am desperately looking to move the custom options ( type: radio inputs ) for simple products ( only have simple products ) to the right column.</p>
  
  <p>Right now, it seem like they are showing in a container called "container2" which is at the bottom of the page, and it is called within the view.phtml as follow:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div class="clearer"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;?php if ($_product-&gt;isSaleable() &amp;&amp; $this-&gt;hasOptions()):?&gt;
  &lt;?php echo $this-&gt;getChildChildHtml('container2', '', true, true) ?&gt;
  &lt;?php endif;?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Container2 is also in the layout file catalog.xml , within the content block.</p>
  
  <p>So what I did is simply move the options wrapper from the reference name="content" block, the a new one: reference name="right" .</p>
  
  <p>For some reason the code is acutally not formated well here and it's also missing some bits so I pasted it here:  <a href="http://pastebin.com/nhCUXcF4" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/nhCUXcF4</a></p>
  
  <p>Basically I can see my options in the right column, but it is like the radio input is not checked when I click on it, because it asks to chose an option again (they are required)</p>
  
  <p>If I leave the options to be in the content block, at the bottom, in the container2 , they work fine as if I click on one, it is checked correctly. If I do not check any and click add to cart, it ask to select a required option.</p>
  
  <p>I think the problem comes from the container1 , container2 thing which I don't really understand. also I see in the catalog XML they are bits of code like </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;block type="core/template_facade" name="product.info.container2" as="container2"&gt;
  &lt;action method="setDataByKey"&gt;&lt;key&gt;alias_in_layout&lt;/key&gt;&lt;value&gt;container2&lt;/value&gt;    &lt;/action&gt;
     &lt;action method="setDataByKeyFromRegistry"&gt;&lt;key&gt;options_container&lt;/key
      &lt;key_in_registry&gt;product&lt;/key_in_registry&gt;&lt;/action&gt;
   &lt;action method="append"&gt;&lt;block&gt;product.info.options.wrapper&lt;/block&gt;&lt;/action&gt;
   &lt;action method="append"&gt;&lt;block&gt;product.info.options.wrapper.bottom&lt;/block&gt;&lt;/action&gt;
  &lt;/block&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So basically my question is how can I properly move the required options from the content of view.phtml (product page) to the right column ? Any help would be absolutely appreciated right now. Thanks.</p>
