Hi,

The only way to do it is by editing the following file:
/YOUR_ADMIN/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php

Look for the following line:

Code:

<td class="main"><?php echo zen_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . '&nbsp;' . zen_draw_input_field('products_quantity', ($pInfo->products_quantity?$pInfo->products_quantity:5)); ?></td>

Replace the line with the following

Code:

<td class="main"><?php echo zen_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . '&nbsp;' . zen_draw_input_field('products_quantity', ($pInfo->products_quantity?$pInfo->products_quantity:5)); ?></td>

I have set the default quantity to 5, you can change the number to a different one.

both look the same and... I hope this is the same for the OP's ZC version since it was not mentioned.

Should be around line 275 in 1.5.# but was changed in 2011 so may not work on earlier versions.

If there are a lot of products involved, why not investigate Easy Populate? Just pick one that suits your needs. http://www.zen-cart.com/search.php?searchid=1821417

Hi,

Sorry this is the proper code, now the 2 lines are not the same.

Open the following file:
/YOUR_ADMIN/includes/modules/product/collect_info.php

Look for the following line:

Code:

<td class="main"><?php echo zen_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . '&nbsp;' . zen_draw_input_field('products_quantity', $pInfo->products_quantity); ?></td>

Replace the line with the following

Code:

<td class="main"><?php echo zen_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '24', '15') . '&nbsp;' . zen_draw_input_field('products_quantity', ($pInfo->products_quantity?$pInfo->products_quantity:5)); ?></td>

I have set the default quantity to 5, you can change the number to a different one.

responsivezc : if i want to set a default weight ?

i need this default weight, so that the order doesn't go to free delivery
