Thanks so much for those wonderful instructions!!!!! ::tup

Actually I have one question: is there a way to make the attribute images like only 6 in one row and next to each other instead of all of them in one row down??? I'm sure I can change that in the php file somewhere. Thanks

Peek at the Option Name settings and perhaps edit the Option Name for addtional settings ... :)

Kimhuff,

To address part of your question, I think you need to require the convention tickets to be added to the cart one at a time.

Edit your "ticket" product and change Product Quantity Maximum from 0 to 1. This will remove the customer's option to choose a quantity. In the description, direct customers to fill out a ticket order for each person attending so they will not be confused. Each associated attribute will automatically go to the right ticket. They can add t-shirts etc separately and pay for all together at checkout.

Someone with experience in text field attributes will have to answer the rest. Hope this helps.

Hey!

I've been searching through this thread and the only relevant question I could find was from 2004- so I thought I'd just ask again!

Is there any way to apply inventory to the attributes? For example, I've set up tote bags with different colours but the same design, but I have different numbers of each colour in stock (ie- I have 4 of red, 6 of blue, 3 in yellow, etc). I'd like to not have to remove aoptions by hand once they sell out- anyway to apply inventory amounts to these attributes?

best,

Erin

Unfortunately, not yet.

It is supposed to be planned for "sometime," and now that the major reorganization of v1.3.0 is done, maybe this will move up on the list. Priority might be influenced by demand... We would like this too, although right now our inventory system is too loose to need it. An order comes in - if we don't have it in that size/stone/etc we make it. :)

Thanks for the quick answer! At least I can stop trying to figure out how to do it!

Normally I would just make more if an order came in, but I had limited supplies for these ones! I'll have to keep that limitation in mind for next time, and hope that it's an available feature soon.

Well, i think i may be asking a question that hasnt been asked yet [i'm embarassed to say i didnt read all 55 pages of this thread, though i know i should have- sorry!]

i run birthday parties for children, where we play safe foam sword games, and i'm trying to use zen cart to accomplish 'purchasing' those bday parties.

the issue i'm having is that i need attributes to do multiplication off of each other.

there are 3 package levels, which cost x or y amount per hour. but that hourly rate can be changed based on the number of participants.

eg: the basic package is $75 per hour, for 20 participants [it cost an additional $50 per hour for each 10 kids above that].

a parent wants a party for 3 hours, for 40 kids.
(75 + 100) * 3

how do i get the attribute controller to do this for me? the main issue i'm having is that i need to use 'price factor' with an offset of -1 to get it to *add* cost, but i can't get the base price to change according to the package level, so all of the math is based on the lowest priced package [the $75 basic, as opposed to the $125 dollar Full Package or $250 Deluxe Package]

can Zen Cart do this for me? or do i have to make 3 different products for the 3 different package types?

Code:

Can you help me please?

One method is to setup a test site with the demo data so you can see how this is done by example ...

In the New v1.2 ... Downloads ... Category where there are examples of single download and multiple downloads ...

I also have several threads posted on how to create Products with single and multiple downloads as well as in the FAQs ...
