Stock For Product With Different Attributes (OLD)

Just packaging it up now :)

Description:
This module allows one to keep track of individual stocks of a product variant. For example, if you have three sizes, large, medium and small, this module will allow you to keep track of all the different quantities. It will work with an unlimited amount of attributes so you could have green, small, cotton shirts.

dear dafonz
it will be a great module but can you tell me the differece between it and the "Attributes by stock" module by milosh , can they work together or their will be conflicts in that

Can't speak for whether or not they work together (I'm guessing likely not), but this allows you to have finer control over the stock.

For example, with milosh's module, you can specify number of each attribute.. so it could be 5 black and 5 blue and 3 medium and 7 small.

Problem is, you don't know what is what. Is it 3 medium blacks or 3 medium blues? You don't know.

With this module, you can specify different stock ids..

so

3 medium blacks
2 small blacks
5 small blues

This is a really dumb question, but where do I go to add attribute stock? I can't figure out where to use this addon.

Catalog > Products with Attributes stock

I checked the files for consistency using Winmerge, installed the tables, uploaded the files, and I'm not seeing this option.. I'll check my files again, any ideas?

I'm having the same problem, I uploaded all the files, ran the query etc and it doesn't give me that option under my catalog.

My bad.. I left out a file!

You'll need to edit admin/includes/boxes/catalog_dhtml.php and add this line (whereever you want)

 // Edit
 $za_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_CATALOG_PRODUCTS_WITH_ATTRIBUTES_STOCK, 'link' => zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_WITH_ATTRIBUTES_STOCK, '', 'NONSSL'));
 // end edit

Updated the zip to reflect that. Sorry about that guys!

Thanks :) appears to be working perfectly!

Better way -- create file admin/includes/boxes/extra_boxes/products_with_attributes_stock_catalog_dhtml.php with this code:

<?php
 $za_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_CATALOG_PRODUCTS_WITH_ATTRIBUTES_STOCK, 'link' => zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_WITH_ATTRIBUTES_STOCK, '', 'NONSSL'));
?>

Hi wonderfullymade (just trying to consolidate everything.. responding to this post)

Did you check your boxes? You can either edit this file here
admin/includes/boxes/catalog_dhtml.php and add

 // Edit
 $za_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_CATALOG_PRODUCTS_WITH_ATTRIBUTES_STOCK, 'link' => zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCTS_WITH_ATTRIBUTES_STOCK, '', 'NONSSL'));
 // end edit

or refer to the post by a_berezin with using the overrirdes. I just prefer editing the file directly as I can place the link where I want it to in the menu

Yes! I use the digit prefix in filenames for that. ;)

Thanks!! That worked! Now I have to figure out how to get molish (I think it was) contrib that wasn't what I needed out of my system (sigh) I didn't back up, but my store isn't live or advertised yet so I have time to work on it.

installed it, works fine!

Does this mod correctly decriment stock #'s per attribute when orders are placed?

You bet

Hi,

Great contribution, Thanks.

I have noticed that when deleting an order the stock is not added back in, should it?

Thanks

I have yet to add any modules to my cart. I am working through things as I come to them, but I have a lot to learn about webspace in general, including Zen Cart.

There are plenty of references throughout the forums to "backup before making major changes" and "test this thoroughly before going live."

How do y'all test something before going live? Once in business your website is live 24/7. So where does the testing happen?

Bet ya weren't expecting such a bare basics kinda question :)

Nope.. you'd have to make that yourself I think. I don't like the idea of deleting orders because logging everything is good...
