Incorporate product description into bootstrap?

I have the gut feeling I am over complicating things. I think I have finally gotten the hang of boot strap’s grid and sizing. But I cannot seem to incorporate the product description into the bootstrapped layout.

I may be using incorrect terms, so please allow me to perhaps better explain. The Attributes, Buy Button, and Gallery are all working wonderfully and play nice together. But the Product Name, Price, and Description always display before or after the bootstrapped sections (Attributes, Buy Button, and Gallery). I was trying to get the description to display in the same section as the attributes (B in this instance).

I suspect that this may be because the Product Name, Price, and Description are not set up the same way as the Attributes, buy button, and gallery?

Is there a way to snap the description into that grid? Please let me know if I am not being clear, I am grasping at terms a bit.

The product info page is made up of Content Modules;
Admin > Modules > Content

From your post these would be;
Product Name, Price, and Description
As well as one other special one called something like "PI Modular".

This PI modular content module has child modules, accessed at ;
Admin > Modules > Layout

From your post these would be;
Attributes, buy button, and gallery
Basic Phoenix does not come with a "product description" PI child module (which is, I think, what you seem to be wanting/needing), so you would need to code that (or get it coded). Alternatively, there is an already existing addon here, available to PRO members (PRO members also get access to loads of other modules).

It is indeed! I was worried it was a user end error I just could not tackle. I appreciate the assistance and I am very grateful that you have provided a way to experiment and learn the system. $200 is a little steep on a students budget, but if I ever make this live I will sign up for pro. Right now it is something I tinker with in between semesters.

That's fine, though it did take you a long time to reply :)

To get the already coded module means you also gets lots more modules that you might not need.

As I mentioned above, the other option is to get a coder to make that single module for you, which would be a lot less cash to pay out in the short term. It would take a coder less than 15 minutes to make that module.
