Getting Product Details of Variant

Hello Everybody,

I am about to create a tiny cart module. Its working quiete well so far, but there are some things that I cannot figure out…

I am loading the Products on the Cart as described here ( www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...umentation.html#code ):


That returns the Products from the cart, and the parent product (the products I am dealing with are variants), what is cool so far, but I would like to retrieve the COMPLETE name of the product, which should include the variant names.

For Example:

I have a Main Product, with two charackteristics: size and color. That product has the name »canUcodeIt«. Now, in the cart, there is one of its variants and I would like to display the name like this:

canUcodeIt-XL-RED

BUT even If can get »canUcodeIt« from the parent product, how can I get the details of the variant?

How can I get the Price? It is not included in the Data Object…

Thanks in Ahead!

Hi,

You should use $cartClass->loadFullCart(); instead of $cartClass->get();
This will give you all the details needed.

For the product name, the easiest way is to edit the variants and set a name for each of them.
But if you have a big range of products I understand that the code is the fastest way

would be fine if this would have been mentioned in the documentation…
