Since we are off shoppica theme does anyone have a clue how to display in left/right column the options for a product-lets say i make a atribute group -memory with atributes- capacity, frequency, latency etc. does opencart allow placing them in left colum and filter the results by atribute? like magento and other platforms have.

i have made atribute group and atributes and all it did was placing them in product page, in specifications tab…it would be easyer just to copy a text in description with all the atributes instead of creating what? another description? do i miss something?
