Specific products listing display for weekly order

Hi,

One solution would be to create two characteristics (menu Products>Characteristics):
- a characteristic "day of the week" with each day of the week as a value of the characteristic
- a characteristic "product" with a product for each value
Then, create your product "weekly order" and add both characteristics to it.
Then, under its "variants" tab, add the necessary variants to construct the table of combinations. You can edit each variant to configure its price, stock, image, etc.
Finally, in the HikaShop configuration page, set the "Characteristics selection method" setting to "Table":
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/5...html#display_product
You can read more about characteristics / variants here:
www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...html#characteristics
On the frontend, on the product page of that product, you'll get a 2D table with one radio for each variant, with the column being the days and the rows being the products.
Once you select a radio, you'll be able to enter the quantity and add the variant to the cart.

While this seems to me that it matches your requirements, I see a potential problem:
a product with more than a couple hundred variants will require a lot of resources to load the data on one page.
And since there are 7 days per week, it means that above ~2 dozens products, it will probably take too much to load the page, either taking too long, or crashing in the middle due to the restrictions imposed by the hosting. The number depends on your hosting so I can't say what it could be. Someone might be able to have 500 variants for a product, some will get a page crash above a 100.

An alternative is to use a listing of products like you're talking about in your message. This way, you can have pagination or infinite scroll, avoiding having to load too much data at once on a page.
Here is how I would see it in your case:
You could create a category "weekly order".
Then, create your products (croissant, bread, etc) and in their "categories" setting, select the "weekly order" category.
Then, create a custom field of the table "item" and of the type "single dropdown" via the menu Display>Custom fields. Use its "categories" restriction setting to select the "weekly order" category and make sure its "Front-end Product Listing" display setting is activated.
Then, create a menu item of the type "products listing" via the Joomla menu manager, and under its "products options" select the "weekly order" category in the "main category" setting and make sure the "Custom item fields", "Quantity field" and "Add to cart" display settings are activated.
On the frontend, you'll have a listing of the products and for each product in the listing, you'll have a dropdown to select the day, an input field for the qantity and the add to cart button.

While this doesn't match exactly the layout you envisioned in your message, it will allow you to sell weekly ordered products.

For the number of weeks since you want it to be for the whole cart, I would recommend having a custom field of the table "order":

That way, the user will be able to select the number of weeks at the beginning of the checkout.
And you can use the cart fee plugin to calculate the "follow weeks amount" based on the total and the value selected in the custom order field: www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/279-cart-fee.html
