Hi,

Is there a way to display stock with unlimited quantity on product listing as "in stock".

I used language override to display X number in stock as "in stock" for items which I have physically in stock. Is there something similar that can be done for "unlimited quantity" stock?

Thanks,

Karol

Nicolas,

First picture shows a case on product listing page where:

quantity of a product > 0 and I customized Czech translation of X_ITEMS_IN_STOCK="skladem" (meaning in-stock, without showing number of items in stock)

Second picture shows a case on product listing page where:

quanity of a product = unlimited, nothing is displayed on product listing page about quantity in this case

What I am looking for in second case is to have an option to display some text on product listing page (something like pre-order or available on demand) if the quantity of the product is unlimited.

Thanks,

Karol

You will have to edit the file 'quantity' of the view "product" via the menu Display->Views and add the code:

echo JText::_('X_ITEMS_IN_STOCK');

just before the code:
echo $this->cart->displayButton(JText::_('ADD_TO_CART'),'add',$this->params,$url,$this->ajax,'',$this->row->product_max_per_order,$this->row->product_min_per_order);
					}elseif($this->row->product_quantity>0){

How would the code look like if I wanted to display different text for quantity = unlimited. If I use your code I will get "in-stock" displayed for products of unlimited quantity which is not what I want.

Instead of :
echo JText::_('X_ITEMS_IN_STOCK');

you could have:
echo 'Unlimited';

is this also possible in hikashop 3.2.1? The code of the file 'quantity' of the view "product" is different and I tried different things :-(

Hello,

The idea is still the same (replacing the display of the translation by a raw text) but the code of HikaShop changed a lot during the past 5 years (and 9 months).

If you want to know which view you need to customize, I recommend you to activate temporally the setting "display view files" :
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...g.html#advanced_main
It will add some "debug" display very useful when you wan to perform view overrides and know what you need to edit.
