Hi,

The product template system can be improved in order to have several different product templates.
It will require some modifications in HikaMarket but the process is possible.

If you replace the "product template" single value by a list of id (in a string, separated by coma), you can propose the selection of the template in the first step of the "product add".
After that, you will have to pass the selected template in an hidden field to validate and let the product class retrieve the good values (and made some checks).

Theses modifications will impact some core files of HikaMarket but we can see to integrate some parts of your modifications if you want to be able to update HikaMarket.
Some could be done using the HikaShop/HikaMarket triggers but not all. I think it can be a interesting improvement.

Regards,

Dear Sir
I am wondering if you already did this enhancement or not, I want to be able to assign more than one product template to one vendor, this is to restrict vendors to sell only predefined products
please advice as am evaluating hikashop and hikamarket to build an ecommerce marketplace for one of my clients
thanks

Hi,

No, the product template did not changed yet in HikaMarket.
It is not easy to change the structure like that in the software because some users are already using the product template feature ; so we should not break the compatibility.
But we started to work on features to allow the vendors to copy an existing product ; the idea is quite the same than a product template but the vendor would choose the product to copy.

Thanks for your quick answer but I don't see how this will affect the comparability of the current users, instead of using one template user can chose from more than one template
Anyways the copy products looks interesting, what is the ETA of implementing it
Thanks

Hi,

Well, if we keep the "vendor_template_id" to store several templates ; we need to store the chosen template during the product creation ; so when the vendor will save the product, the fields that the vendor can't edit should be loaded from the right product template.
After some analyze, I think I could find a good solution in order to keep a good compatibility with user using overrides or who are already using the product template feature.
Modifying the database structure can have some bad side effect ; it is something that we have to do really carefully.

I'm currently finishing the HikaMarket 1.6.0 release ; I'll see if I can add the multi-template feature if it is ask too much time (I don't want to delay the release too much).

Regards,

Hi,

Unfortunately, with the big amount of work required for HikaShop 3 ; I was not able to implement all features I wanted into HikaMarket 1.7.x so I stayed focus on the new order edition system.
[ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...arket-changelog.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/147-hikamarket-changelog.html)

Because that "multi product template" feature is being more and more required, it is now in our high priority features.

Regards,
