Guest Posted October 17, 2002 Posted October 17, 2002 I'm doing four shopping carts for clients, and need to know how to work with product options. Some have choices of colors, or fragrances, and I need to know how to connect the options with the products. From what I'm seeing, I can only connect one option with a product...but I can't figure out where to find documentation or suggestions for making this work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My advice would be to download and install the "alternative products option" contribution. Then you can set your options as normal on the products_attributes page in admin. When you then add a product to your database, you set the options/attributes whilst adding the product. It's much easier than the standard way IMO. HTH
Guest Posted October 18, 2002 Posted October 18, 2002 Where can I find this contribution? With so many things in those lists, I don't know where to find what I need. I'm using the 2.2 snapshot, by the way, so I can't always tell what is already included in the current version to know which of these contributions are helpful

burt Posted October 26, 2002 Posted October 26, 2002 Did not look very hard. ;) http://www.oscommerce.com/downloads.php/co...ibutions/type,5
profesher Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 http://www.oscommerce.com/downloads.php/co...ibutions/type,5 that link is broken burt. Do you know some other place to look for this feature?
♥bruyndoncx Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 I think you are looking for this one : http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...rch,alternative KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON I do not use the responsive bootstrap version since i coded my responsive version earlier, but i have bought every 28d of code package to support burts effort and keep this forum alive (albeit more like on life support). So if you are still here ? What are you waiting for ?! Find the most frequent unique errors to fix: grep "PHP" php_error_log.txt | sed "s/^.* PHP/PHP/g" |grep "line" |sort | uniq -c | sort -r > counterrors.txt
profesher Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Thanks burt for the link info, I checked the demo and that's just what I need. Th eproblem I have now is that I have no idea howa to install the contribution, can't find any info in the contribution page.
♥ecartz Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 In general, you download the contribution and then unzip the files. The install instructions should be in the unzipped files. Hth, Matt Always back up before making changes.
Guest Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 and you have 4 stores to do? well, first thing, learn to backup. and then backup some more. go to your favorite search engine and search on php tutorial search on mysql tutorial. play with the software as is without adding any contributions, so you know what it will do, really get to know it. read through the knowledge base on how you can install, modify, etc. trust me it will be worth your while to do these things. your next best friend is the search. the people who responded to you were able to search and find things in probably about 3 key strokes. you should be able to do the same. final word . .. BACKUP
