-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.2
-- Joomla version -- : 3.6.2
-- PHP version -- : 5.6.24

What I am trying to do is found on this site. I know it is not a hikashop, but how do we do this here.
www.queensboro.com/style/7466U/c/tshirts...-printed-borough-tee

The sizes and color can be added on one form, then when the add to cart button is clicked all the shirts of a certain size are configured together.

Is this possible in Hika?

Thanks

Hi,

Yes. You can change the "characteristics selection method" setting to "list" and the "Display the quantity field on the product page" setting to "global on listing" in the HikaShop configuration and that will give you a listing of the variants on your product pages with one quantity input for each variant of the product and one global add to cart button, like on that page.
Now, it won't display as a 2d table like on your link, but with some customization of the "show_block_characteristic" view file by a developer on your end, that could be possible too.

:huh:
I do not understand your instructions.
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/single-product is close but still does not look like what I originally asked.

Yes. You can change the "characteristics selection method" setting to "list" and the "Display the quantity field on the product page" setting to "global on listing" in the HikaShop configuration

Was the response.
The Characteristics selection method set to list is done.
This creates a table with the quantity box and an add to cart for each individual item.
Also>>How to set the starting number to 0?

However the next instruction does not make sense
Display the quantity field on the product page" setting to "global on listing"
Where is the global on listing. I am unable to find it anywhere.
I am using the essential cart, but I also logged into your Demo server and still can not find it.
:blush:

varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datamap

Why is there even a buy button this page?
The button should be in each product not globally here.

Hi,

The "Display the quantity field on the product page" setting also affects the listings. I'm not sure though why you don't see the quantity field on each product.
Could you provide a screenshot of the settings of your menu item so that we can get a clearer picture of the situation ?

B)
I understand what your trying to say... but I am past that Jerome helped on that before I bought the upgrades..

What I want is an order form like this:
I want a clean order form we have up to 16 color variants and 8 size variants that can be ordered at any one time.
www.queensboro.com/style/7466/c/all_products/the-borough-tee

When I try to do it in the cart here are my examples:
All the combinations I could try:
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datamap

Using only variants and only 3 colors look at this list... Unorganized and ugly:(
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datam...rs-many-size-variant

I would like to have this:
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datam...ple-3-colors-no-size
but where the size is the coloricon image to actually show the icon..not the html link.

On this page I used this product with varients to make the options for the product.. but the color icons do not work correctly.
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datam.../56-054x-flameorange

The last option in the list looks like html.. oh it is.. that is the problem the product is almost complete.. I do not want to use words here.. but actual colors if the original look from queensbor is not able to be accomplished:)

We are going to push the limits of this cart:)

See the post above...
I thank Tech support for the email about a new display method in the next release.. Can I be a beta tester?

I still need to know...
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datam.../56-054x-flameorange

Also I notice that the prices next to the quantity do not reflect the price with options. Maybe that is because of the coloriconimage Iconfailure?

And removing the http:// from the brand URL?

Hi,

If you want the same look as the queensbor website, I would recommend to go with that solution:
varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datam...rs-many-size-variant
All you have to do then is to modify a bit the display in the "show_block_charactersitic" view file to have a 2d matrix for the quantity input fields instead of a table list.

Regarding the page varsity.tcpirate.com/index.php/csv-datam...ple-3-colors-no-size I'm not sure what you mean. I don't see any HTML link there.
Also, having a dropdown for one characteristic on the page, and a variant list for the other characteristic won't work with some more heavy developing. It will be easier to just adapt the list display into a 2d matrix. If you know a bit PHP it should not be a problem.
Actually, for next version of HikaShop, we plan on adding an option to be able to get such 2d matrix of quantity fields with characteristics.
A beta will be available in a few weeks. It will be announced by an email newsletter and twitter.

And for different questions not related to the same issue, please open a new thread.

Also, please don't post the same questions on two different threads or in the forum and by email. It requires twice the work for us and we loose time which would be put to better use adding the features you need in HikaShop.

This is what I am asking how to do.. where are the docs on that?

The Queensboro solution is a Magneto Cart or similar solution. We will go that solution when it is cost effective and we have taken all the processes of this business from multiple analog and digital tools creating a necessary order flow.

This solution is just one more process that needs to be stream lined. How we do that is based directly on your responses. Telling a customer that they should use a different solution is not appreciated by myself, nor your team members I assure you. That for the price point there is no better solution for our needs.

We may have to do some custom developing or styling... I am here to push this cart to the limits. If you are not up to that task, I understand, but it will not keep me from pushing the limits.

Jerome said that there will be a functionality update in about 3 months that will accomplish this..
If you say I can do it now by editing something.. I want to try that...
I am working with you Nicholas.. I am not going anywhere.. I like this product, and you and your team.
We all have those customers that we think want something more than we are ready to offer.
My customer with the t-shirt business... Does not understand the technology but does understand that there are no limits except development costs and customizations.
This project is a money looser for me... but now I am in a position to know the true limitations of this cart, and how much increase on the next build out.

I will search on the 2d matrix and see if I can figure out the solution.

Thanks for all you do..
You are awesome.!

Characteristics selection method : You can choose between three possibilities for the characteristics selector: 1/ a dropdown for each characteristic 2/ radio buttons for each characteristics 3/ a 2D table layout where you will have a characteristic options as rows and another as columns with one radio per possibility. Note that this third option only works with 2 characteristics per product. If a product does have a different number of characteristics, they will default to the dropdown display.

www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/i...hikashop-config.html

I need a 2d table with QTY input fields. I am nearly certain that this is not achievable until the next upgrade. However, I will try to edit the display view to accomplish this once everything else works.

:ohmy:

Hi,

I don't understand your grief with what I said.
I was only reminding you about the solution I kept telling you which was the closest to what you wanted and would only require some minor PHP/HTML modifications to the show_block_charactersitic.
You're asking me about docs on how to do that. But I'm not sure what I can propose you for docs about that ?
If you know PHP and HTML, you should be able to do it after just looking at the show_block_characteristic view file. There is no doc necessary. For a developer, it should be straight forward to do.
If you don't know PHP and HTML, then, you won't be able to do it yourself, but you could hire a developer to do it for you. We have a list of partners that can help you:
www.hikashop.com/home/our-partners.html
But if you want wait for a few weeks/months the next release of HikaShop where the option you want will be available, then, you can simply do that.
