Problem with Product Option Types


chro

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have several different product options for each item. The first option is passed throughout the shopping process fine. It's a drop-down selection field.

 

The rest of them.. simple text fields don't seem to get passed from page to page. After the user enters them and proceeds to the next page all that it shows for each field is "TEXT".

 

Any ideas what's going on? Probably really simple thing I've missed?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

- Richard.

This is what's being created in the shopping_cart.php page...

 

<input type="hidden" name="id[243{2}4{txt_4}{txt_5}{txt_7}{txt_8}{txt_9}{txt_10}{txt_11}{txt_13}{txt_14}{tx

t_15}{txt_17}{txt_18}{txt_19}][2]" value="4">

 

Surely this can't be right? Shall I submit a bug report or am I making a stupid mistake?

text attributes are not as far as i am aware part of the stock osc release but are however the subject of 2 contributions.

 

Which one are you using? and what snapshot are you using?

 

when posting a question it is useful to post as much information as possible relating to your problem and a url in most cases.

 

cheers

Ahhh.. you're right.. in the snapshot I had, textfields aren't supported. Sorry, I should have stated the release & snapshot right at the start. I've found the contribution you mentioned which should sort out the problem. Thanks!!

Hmmm.. seems that update only supports "static" text attributes directly from the database. ie, the site visitor can't enter text into a text box and have it associated with a particular product. This is a major floor! Some products might require a message to be inscribed.. or in my case have a message put in a card. Not sure what to do about this. I don't really understand enough about this to implement an update myself.
