Stock by Attributes 5.0 Beta (for v1.5.0)

[kenneth_w]

^ will I be able to add product model and/or SKU to each attribute with the mod?

First of all, Big thanks for the effort you put in this module !!

I am currently running ZC 1.5.1 on a test server, with the SBA version found a couple of posts back. It works fine except, but I found one issue.

I have a shop with only Euro's as currency. The first attribute drop down shows the Euro sign okay, but the following boxes do not show the sign, but € . (see image)

Some other things I noticed in the installation files :
The boxes folder can be deleted if this mod is truly only for ZC 1.5x
Some files need to be updated to contain ZC 1.5 code. I will post a list with the exact files later.

Has anyone tried out RoboPhung's version of SBA to see if it works as the 1.39 version did for textboxes? I was planning to but haven't had the time.

Depends on what you mean by "works as the 1.39 version did for textboxes"... You'll probably need to explain this before anyone can answer your question..

Textboxes should work as they did...because i just imported the textbox functionality over from the 1.3.9 version of SBA...

That being said though, SBA concerning textboxes and checkboxes are just broken in general because those "attributes"
should not have their own stock count. They were broken in SBA for 1.3.9, and they are broken here still...looking into fixing it currently, but it's looking to be a lot more complex to fix than I had anticipated.

Hi,
I finally got the mod working on my 1.5, but the generation of the page really takes a lot of time, minutes, cause I've thousends of products in stock..

Is there a way to list only X products when I click on "Products with attributes stock" instead of the entire catalog? Then I will just use the search button to get the products I want to correct..

Thanks!

How did you integrate the add to cart qty boxes and the multiple attribute stock quantities on the purseobsession website?

This is not an SBA support related question.. this is a question on how to change the layout of the product info page and as such you should post a new question in separate thread..

It's done using another addon module called Products attribute grid.

Here's the link to the support thread: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...attribute+grid

You can refer to that thread to get yourself started, but I'd approach this addon with a lot of caution. It's quite buggy, and I don't think there is any official support for zc 1.5, although some people have attempted to install it on 1.5 with some success.

I think this is another very valuable and extremely useful optional way of displaying the attributes in addition to the standard radio buttons and dropdown boxes, and I hope to acquire permission from the original author to integrate it into future releases of SBA for zc 1.5, but I'm currently in the middle of upgrading my own webstore from 1.39h to 1.51 so...must handle the efforts by priority.

The current SBA for 1.5 however, is fully functional, and has worked out many kinks that existed since its 1.39 days (i.e., inline AJAX stock updating now works in the "products with attributes stock" admin menu, and restocking the quantities when deleting an order now fully works!!!)

I've got it working on a v1.5 store with little issues.. Don't think you need the author's permission as no one has minded that module in quite some time.. Besides it's open source so if you are willing to adopt it, I don't think anyone is going to object.. (least of all me..)
