Hi there,
Supposing we wanted to modify this so that it didnt repeat the attribute description in the menu.
At the moment the default value for the dropdown is "UK shoe size (Mens)", but it would make sense to have a shoe size eg 4 as that first value.
Any idea how to do this?
Warm Regards,
Joel
"This", the stock by attributes mod has no involvement in building the pulldown menu. As this thread is over 700 posts just on the mod, it would be a bad idea to extend its scope into other attribute-related queries too. Besides your question warrants a thread of its own.Quote:

I'm getting script timeout issues with this module. Is this a known problem? I am a web developer and I have come across similar issues when using jQuery to loop through a large page.
Any thoughts?
It would be useful to know what you were doing when the timeout occurred, which version of the mod you are using and your hosting configuration e.g. PHP memory limit and timeout settings. That said, this is not a problem that I have heard of previously in 3 years of supporting versions 4.0 - 4.7 (I can't speak for multi-add or AJAX).Quote:

For each variation of instock colors, it shows the attribute value, so if I have 3 sizes of white shirts, it shows "white" 3 times.
My menu now looks like this:
size color
---- --------
S White
M White
L White
X Black
Black
Red
Any fix for this?
Hello,
New-ish ZenCart user here, and first time poster, so please be gentle with me :blink: I've read for hours through this thread and don't see an answer, so here goes...
I've successfully installed this wonderful add-on and have it working great for various clothing items with different sizes. But I'm having a slightly strange problem with an additional attribute that I've just added to one particular item.
The shirt comes in different sizes, as I mentioned, but I've added the option to have a name/number printed on the back. Everything went smoothly in creating a TEXT-type option for this purpose and applying it as an attribute to that particular product. It all looks good for the customer, who can choose the size they want, fill the text field with the name/number combination they want printed on the back... until they add it to the cart. When they do that, a message in the cart screen states that the product is out of stock (when it shouldn't be). However, if the customer then removes the offending item from their cart, selects the same sized jersey again but this time chooses not to enter a name/number in the text field, the cart is suddenly a happy camper!
Any ideas if this is something I messed up or if it's a limitation of the add-on? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated :blush:
I'm using ZC 1.3.8a, SBA 4.7Multi-add, no other add-ons. Here's a link to the product I'm describing so you can see the behavior for yourself.
It's not you. It's a known limitation of the mod.Quote:

kuroi - thank you so much for the swift response!Quote:

If a customer want to buy 4 medium black or 4 medium red or 4 Small in the shopping cart there is no message that they are out of stock, but if he want to buy 5 medium black, it says 0 quantity available.
why? is it normal for this mod?
Common problem, much discussed in thread already. Means that either you haven't installed all the files properly, or are using the AJAX version. More information above.Quote:
