Hi,

In HikaShop Business how do we display product variants for selection when creating Orders in the back end? The Products are listed but the variants are not. All products are files for download. Each product has two variants. The order administrator can create an order based on the main product. However, without the variant that defines which file the user can download, the order confirmation email message does not display a download link.

Other: Does not matter whether All sub elements or Direct sub elements are displayed.

Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback, we just fixed it, you'll just have to edit the file "YOUR WEBSITE\administrator\components\com_hikashop\views\product\tmpl\selection.php", and add these lines : after these lines :

You'll need more modifications to do that so you should just download the last package of Hikashop and install it.

After some tests we found out that the modifications needed to do that were a little bigger, so can you just download the last package of Hikashop and Install it ? Then you should be able to add variants through your back-end .

Dear Mohamed,

Thank you so much. This will be very helpful.

Take care.

Hi Mohamed,

I downloaded com_hikashop_business_2.2.0_2013-08-05.zip and installed it. I still do not see the variants for the products when I create an order from the administrative backend of Joomla.

Here's my process:

Components-->HikaShop-->Orders-->New
From Product list, select folder icon at right
At left from Explorer-->Root-->Product category-->MySpecificProductCategory

On the right, with either Products/Direc sub elements or Products/All sub elements, I can see only the main product. I cannot see the product variants.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Hi,

On the top right of the products listing popup, there is a new dropdown where you can select the type of display: products only, variants only, or both.

Duh-oh. Sorry.

Nicolas, you one of my favorite people in the world today. Thank you very much.
