How can I show the attribute weight for each item in cart?

[Ajeh]

Oh ... well ... never mind ...

Nope, they are not broken out in the shopping cart as the product weight is not broken out in the shopping cart either ...

This could be done, but it would take quite a bit of custom coding ... have you got your coder's hat on?

[Fay808]

Yes I am a pretty good manipulator of code -

in tpl_shipping_default.php is where the mod must take place I believe

<li><?php echo $value['products_options_name'] . TEXT_OPTION_DIVIDER . nl2br($value['products_options_values_name']); ?></li>

It should call the products_attributes_weight here but I cannot get it to show - more to this I know

There is a attribute in attributes controller

<input type="text" name="products_attributes_weight_prefix" value="<?php echo $attributes_values->fields['products_attributes_weight_prefix']; ?>" size="2">&nbsp;<input type="text" name="products_attributes_weight" value="<?php echo $attributes_values->fields['products_attributes_weight']; ?>" size="6">

Want to be able to have the poundage show so I know what to put into each box

Anyway thanks for your help and thoughts - guess I will have to either re-think this or hire a coder who knows this better

I did another way for hours setting up weights as option values but then thought why not use the weight feature - blah

It seems to make sense if you offer the options for individual weights in attributes they should be shown everywhere

The product totals display reads the formula with the products_attributes_weight for each option when its added up top in total weight

wish I could just parse the weight into the final list in cart

You can customize the file:
/includes/modules/pages/shopping_cart/header_php.php

and include the fields:
products_attributes_weight
products_attributes_weight_prefix

in the select statement so that the information is available per attribute in the tpl_shopping_cart_default.php

Just follow the pattern of the:
options_values_price
price_prefix

Hello just saw this - I am trying your suggestion - thank you so much!

Stay tuned - btw I am very happy with everything in Zen Cart. Its a wicked program and everything up to this point has been a breeze.

I know I can crack this.

Big Thx.

YOU ROCK

I DID IT!!!

I AM VERY HAPPY AND NOW CAN FINISH MY PROJECT

EASY TO CUSTOMIZE

THANK YOU THANK YOU



AJEH IS THE BEST !

[Ajeh]

You are most welcome ... glad that we could get you back on track ...

That is tricky code in there, you done good ...

[Fay808]

Thank you! One more major thing if I may?

So I have entered all the options for each product and can now see the weights in the shopping cart itself - great!

Of course I want to show the weights in the confirmation page, order history, invoice and order!

They all share the same string on each page:

<li><?php echo $order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['option'] . ': ' . nl2br(zen_output_string_protected($order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['value'])); ?></li>

Any ideas about what I put in here to show weight? Than I can add to all the above mentioned pages...

Thanks again.

This is the section on the Account History tpl_account_history_info_default.php that echos out the display:

    <tr>
        <td class="accountQuantityDisplay"><?php echo  $order->products[$i]['qty'] . QUANTITY_SUFFIX; ?></td>
        <td class="accountProductDisplay"><?php echo  $order->products[$i]['name'];

    if ( (isset($order->products[$i]['attributes'])) && (sizeof($order->products[$i]['attributes']) > 0) ) {
      echo '<ul id="orderAttribsList">';
      for ($j=0, $n2=sizeof($order->products[$i]['attributes']); $j<$n2; $j++) {
        echo '<li>' . $order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['option'] . TEXT_OPTION_DIVIDER . nl2br(zen_output_string_protected($order->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['value'])) . '</li>';
      }
        echo '</ul>';
    }
?>
        </td>
<?php
    if (sizeof($order->info['tax_groups']) > 1) {
?>
        <td class="accountTaxDisplay"><?php echo zen_display_tax_value($order->products[$i]['tax']) . '%' ?></td>
<?php
    }
?>
        <td class="accountTotalDisplay"><?php echo $currencies->format(zen_add_tax($order->products[$i]['final_price'], $order->products[$i]['tax']) * $order->products[$i]['qty'], true, $order->info['currency'], $order->info['currency_value']) . ($order->products[$i]['onetime_charges'] != 0 ? '<br />' . $currencies->format(zen_add_tax($order->products[$i]['onetime_charges'], $order->products[$i]['tax']), true, $order->info['currency'], $order->info['currency_value']) : '') ?></td>
    </tr>

This is the section of the orders.php class that builds that section ...

      $subindex = 0;
      $attributes_query = "select products_options_id, products_options_values_id, products_options, products_options_values,
                              options_values_price, price_prefix from " . TABLE_ORDERS_PRODUCTS_ATTRIBUTES . "
                               where orders_id = '" . (int)$order_id . "'
                               and orders_products_id = '" . (int)$orders_products->fields['orders_products_id'] . "'";

      $attributes = $db->Execute($attributes_query);
      if ($attributes->RecordCount()) {
        while (!$attributes->EOF) {
          $this->products[$index]['attributes'][$subindex] = array('option' => $attributes->fields['products_options'],
                                                                   'value' => $attributes->fields['products_options_values'],
                                                                   'prefix' => $attributes->fields['price_prefix'],
                                                                   'price' => $attributes->fields['options_values_price']);

          $subindex++;
          $attributes->MoveNext();
        }
      } 

Again you need to load the weight and prefix into the select then add it to the array so it is available in the template ...

[Fay808]

Hi - sorry I was away - now I am back. Great thanks for that - I did it again!!

I achieved the array in the orders.php and now can see the weight in orders history.


However I would like to see the weight in checkout confirmation, email confirmation and the invoice page.

I tried to add the weight but did not work - it won't read the string.

Is there another place I have to add the array for these pages?

Ajeh - thanks again!
