New Version unable to Multi Select
-- Joomla version -- : 3.4.1
-- PHP version -- : 5.3
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : any
Hi,
Thanks for the new vesion of Hikashop, I can see there are several good improvements. However, one improvement may not be that much of an improvement in my client's eyes and I can see where he is comeing from.
Where you select the related product and product options this has changes to a tree popup style select - which is great but there is no option to multiselect products? In the old version you could select a category and then multiselect all the products in the category as related products. Not you have to do them one by one which takes a lot more time?
Please advise? Is there an option to revert to the older method?
many thanks.

If, in the namebox, you browse to a category, when you will select a product the namebox won't lost the data.
It means that if you click re-click on the namebox, it will re-open on the same element you were just before.
So, I'm not against improving the system but I'll need more details in order to create a ticket in the TODO list ; because for my current point of view, there is already a multiselect.
Regards,
PS : The old product edition is still available by adding the parameter "&legacy=1" in the URL while editing a product.

What I mean by multi select is that on the old method you could select a number of products at the same time by ticking the boxes next to the names of the products and then adding them in. So you could easily add say 10 products from one category. With the new method you have to add one product at a time which can take a long time.
Many thanks

Yes.
And as I said in my previous message, it might not take as much time as you think because when the namebox re-open, it re-open at the same place that you were just before.
But if you have an idea of improvement, we are still open to suggestions.

Although you are correct it does open at the same point you left off but still this is a much slower method than it was before? Also if you have a lot of categories and products in those categories it can get very fiddly. Also, if you have a list of lest say 30 products once you've added a few one by one you get lost as to wich have been added and which haven't? It seems although the new method looks a bit slicker its actually not as good as the old method.
Also the new dashboard layout makes the content editor for description small, if you try to expand it out the editor goes underneath other elements on the page. This is the same for custom fields that are using an editor, they disappear off to the page on the right.
Many thanks

Thanks for your feedback.Also the new dashboard layout makes the content editor for description small, if you try to expand it out the editor goes underneath other elements on the page. This is the same for custom fields that are using an editor, they disappear off to the page on the right.
We wanted to add an "expand" button for the description in order to modify the CSS of the element to make it wider.
So by default the description will use one column but you can click on the button to use two (or three ?) columns.
But we forget the custom field section with the textarea/wysiwyg fields ; I just add it in the TODO list task.
So what is your suggestion ? To add a button in order to open a popup with the old product selection interface ?Although you are correct it does open at the same point you left off but still this is a much slower method than it was before? Also if you have a lot of categories and products in those categories it can get very fiddly.

For the related product and options add - Yes I think an option to the include the old method if you want to add many products at the same time would be very helpful.
The editor issue personally I would have thought the description to take up 2 columns by default? However, the option to expand would be great.
Many thanks.

I came to a problem with your product. In the older version there was perfect solution for adding Related products. When you search for a product name, all the found items could be identified and assigned to a product with one push of a button. In the new version search works, but you can not select all the items at once and it is required to search each item seperately

Yes, it's less practical in that respect. Thank you for your feedback. We'll look at improving that to allow multiple select with the CTRL key of the keyboard in a future release.
In the mean time, you can always go back to the old interface by adding the parameter &legacy=1 at the end of the URL of the product edition page.

That's a bug of the popup system of Joomla:

HikaShop upgraded version 2.6.1. Joomla version 3.4.8.
I took your reference and replaces github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/7845/files
line in the file layouts / joomla / modal / iframe.php
- $ IframeAttributes = $ params ;
+ $ IframeAttributes = addslashes ($ params );
but all the same as the old version, using "& legacy = 1" opens an empty window Add
thanks

If you're using HikaShop 2.6.1 ; you can use "vex".

I'm testing Hikashop 2.6.3 (in Joomla 3.6.2) and multiple selecting when adding related products is not possible.
Returning to the old interface by adding &legacy=1 to the URL solves this problem. However this is quite inefficient since this has to be repeated for every new product edition page.
Is there a way to make the old interface the standard interface for editing products?
This would be most welcome.
Thanks,
Udo
