Fantastic, thank you! Can I also update quantities on products from the front-end of the website with the HikaShop Business plugin? I'd rather be able to keep people out of the back-end to update quantities if at all possible. I know you can do it with Hika Market, but I was hoping for a "one-stop-shop" plugin. Thank you in advance!

Hi,

To update the quantity in the front-end, you need a more complex interface than a simple plugin would be able to provide.
HikaMarket Front-edition is a complete Joomla component which propose front-end edition features in order to manage your products, your categories, your orders.
I understand that it can be "too much" for your requirements but HikaShop business does not include the features of HikaMarket. It is two components.

Thank you Jerome for your help! I purchased HikaMarket front-end and HikaShop Business. They work great, very pleased! The only thing I'm slightly concerned about is the fact that I can only set the "out of stock" limit to one value. In other words if I set that value to 20 it appears that every product on my store will use that value. How can I set an "out of stock" limit per product? Let's say 30 on one item, 50 on another, etc.? There are just certain items I want to keep more of in inventory than others. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

The HikaShop "out of stock" plugin can be improved.
We can imagine that the plugin will read a value from a product custom field and, if the value of this custom field is "0" (empty), it uses the default value of the plugin.
So in the configuration of the plugin, you will set the default value and the name of the product custom field column (if you want to use it).

Regards,

Hey Jerome, thanks again for the quick response! Soo I'm still a little confused...are you saying the ability to control that value "per product" is available today? I was looking for the way to add a "product custom field" so it wouldn't use the plugin default and was unable to locate it ![:(](/media/kunena/emoticons/5.png ":("). In the configuration of the "out of stock" plugin, I don't see the ability to be able to set the product custom field like you were talking. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

No, it is not what I said.
I said that the plugin can be improve and "we can imagine", so it means that the development of this feature as to be made.
