Hi,

I have a small problem with combining multiple characteristics.
So say you have one set for size that has S, M and L and another set for color that has red and blue.
S and M are both available in red and blue, but L is only available in red.
If you implement this in hikashop by not making a combination for L and blue. The user can still choose the combination as an option, and it will just show that the product is out of stock. Is there any way of disabling the ability of choosing that combination option?

Thanks in advance,
Bart Klomp

Hello,

As you can imagine, when you display page product we can't know which characteristics will be choose, and even less anticipate cross configuration, and so dropdown have to display all possible options.
The better solution is to choose another characteristics display, in your HikaShop Main Configuration, see my screenshot :



This will display a table that cross your characteristics, and so will forbid to select unavailable configuration.



Hope this will fit your needs.
Regards

Thanks for the answer, this is a great solution on the problem I stated. But in actuality I have a product with 4 different characteristics all with multiple options, so you can't display those in a table. Is there any way to still get around this problem?

Hi,

Then you can use the "list" selection method instead of "table". That way it will give a list of all the available variants and only those on the product page.
