JGLOBAL_SELECT_AN_OPTION

HI

When a product variant changes from quantity 1 to 0, the dropdown box displays JGLOBAL_SELECT_AN_OPTION. However I notice this doesn't happen if all the product variants have quantity 0.

Hi,

Can you give me a link to your website, it would help me to understand what your problem really is ?

Thank you.

Hi Mohamed

My website is in a password protected directory. Do you have an email address i can send the details to.

However I believe you can reproduce this problem by creating

1 Main Product
1 characteristic (with 1 value)
3 Options

Then assign the 1 characteristic to the 3 options, so each option will have 1 variant product. And assign the 3 options to the Main Product.

If you publish all 3 variants and set the quantity for any of the variants to 0, you will get the error text.

Products and Variants

HI Nicolas

Thank you for the solution.

But could I suggest rather than making the option disappear, could I change it to displaying a value from a custom field.

For example,
NoVariants_CustomField
Values: All sold out, None Available etc

By setting it to a custom field I can have different message for different category of products.

Is the code too difficult to alter for this solution.

Thanks

Patrick

Hi Nicolas

I have created a custom field with Columne Name: zero_quantity_message and Table: Product. I have created 2 values: All sold out and Not Available.

I have modified the file - Option and view - Product with the following:

if(!count($this->values)){$html=$optionElement->zero_quantity_message;}else

However in the front, I can see the Option being displayed, however instead of seeing the values, all I see an empty <td></td>

Hi Nicolas

I have set a value for the Option but I get the blank <td></td>. However, If I set a value in the Variant, then it works. However I am using $optionElement->zero_quantity_message but it is using the values from the variant and not the option. If I change to a new value in the Option, then nothing happens and it still uses details from the variant product.

Thanks

Patrick
