The idea is to use options in order to let the user order everything in one click, not having him to navigating between different product-pages and add them seperatly to the cart. So i created a product "home delivered meal" with an option:Wine with Charecteristics: no wine, 1,2,3 bottles. When i the "delivered meal" to the cart, the Wine is also added to the cart, even when user chose "no wine" (price is 0€). So they are two items in the cart, the main product (the meal) and the option "The wine" Question 1) On the demo the behaviour is different ( demo.hikashop.com/index.php?option=com_h...ow&Itemid=91&lang=en ) when adding an option (for example RAM). It is not added in the cart as a separate item, but it is added to the main product, just as if it would be a Characteristic. How is that done? Question 2) When adding the option "wine" to the meal, the extra item is added multiple times. For example a user ordered 4 meals, and selected one bottle of wine (in the option wine wit characteristic- "one bottle). In the cart the wine is added 4 times, as many as the meal. Can this connection between Main product quantity and option be seperated from each other? thanks for any help!")* was created by *[tvoverbek](/forum/user/30969-tvoverbek "View tvoverbek's Profile")* Hi, I'm using -- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.0 -- Joomla version -- : 3.2.2 And I have 2 problems with Product - Options.
