Conditional dropdowns

[cslinux]

I'm asking if zen cart is allowing products import from excel sheet ? and as well which supports "conditional dropdowns" in a way like this website http://www.sistekdata.com/ ? , and how if yes , sorry if my question is newbie one.

Easy Populate is a common tool for importing products etc. You can map a spreadsheet to your ZC database tables with it.

Dependent attributes are not supported in core Zen Cart, and would require custom coding, probably in javascript. If you mean something like their "Easy Supplies Finder", that would need to be custom coded. There is a manufacturers sidebox.

First, thanks for your reply, Yes it's "Easy supplies finder" but what don't know if "Stocks by attributes" can help here ?, if not which code do i need and if you can point me to any sample code.

Stock by Attributes is not applicable to that sidebox function at all. I haven't worked with that kind of selection filter code. Someone else will know more about it.

There is a new mod just activated yesterday that may be helpful to you: Product Finder: multiple category drop-downs

How far do you think this may help on have the same as this "EASY SUPPLIES FINDER" ?

[gjh42]

You know as much as I do. Investigate it and find out.

I thought this "Easy Populate" , is free. No other free modules or a way that allows products imports from excel ???

[gjh42]

There are free versions of Easy Populate in Free Addons. Look at the support threads to decide which version is best for you - some of the more recent/advanced ones are said to be less stable.

Regarding always Easy populate, does it support importing products with images ? if yes is there any how-to ?
