KatrineLian Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Hello everyone! I've done a long hard search through the contributions, forum and google for an answer, or even a direction to think in for this issue. Our company sells car products. One sku (product) fits many type of cars. We want to be able to let the customer look up their car, and have the item they need, as well as the necessary, and optional accessories for that item appear ON THAT PAGE. So if I want a car stereo (sku 123) it fits Ford 150's for 2000-2005. It also fits Chevy Cavaliers from 1983-1989, but on the S class. There is a different wiring kit for each one of these. So here's the scenerio - I create a guided (drop down) search for: Car Maker (ford) Car type (F150) Car Year (2000) Which will return a product page with the stereo, the needed wiring for an 150, and any accessories that might be optional for it. Because OSCommerce takes each product as being "unique" how do I explain to it that a sku 123 fits 3 car makers with 4 years a piece? So it's a double question. I am new to php/mysql, but have an asp/mssql background. I've completed one store already, and wouldn't mind working with a programmer for assistance, or generous compensation. -Kate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasper98 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I believe this should do the trick. http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1681 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatrineLian Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 I'll try that contribution! The first time I saw that, as far as I understood by reading over it, it wouldn't work because while I have one product (say one sku) it needs to be tagged with multiple cars and multiple wiring. Displaying all the options for that stereo isn't an option, because my boss is very particular that people not be shown things they can't buy - too many returns.

Kate If you look again at the contribution page you will see that there is a 'multiple master' add on - you need to make the vehicle the 'master' - with the master only the applicable slaves will display with it :D Matti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
