So i have 3 characteristics Size, Set, Colour

I can get the product to have all options
Size: large, medium, small
Set: 1,2,3
Colour: A,B,C

What i cant get to work is that if you say select Size: Large you can only by Set: 1,2 Colour: A,B
or if you select Size: Medium you can only get Set:2,3 Colour: B,C

i can get it so that there are no quantities for them but i want it so that the user only has certain variants displayed from Set and Colour Characteristic based on their current variant choice in characteristic Size

Hi,

It's possible, but only if you don't have other variants using the value.
If none of the variants of the product use C, then C won't be in the colour dropdown.
But there is no mechanism to dynamically refresh the dropdowns.
What you can do though is to change the "characteristic selection method" setting of the HikaShop configuration to "list" and that way, you'll see a listing of only the available variants.

Thank-you Nicolas for the quick response. Sad there isnt a way to have the drop downs refresh, but the list does solve my problem.
Big help as always!
