Stock by Attribute v4.0 addon for v1.3.5-1.3.9

[vandiermen]

Is there a way to allow you to edit more than one colour product attribute at a time.

So for example:

I edit a t-shirt which I have in S M L and XL

I click edit and can update all quantity in one page.

I have been looking for something like this for some time but could not find anything, perhaps we can find others who want this and all put in something to have someone create it for us $$, or just both you and I could pay some one to make it.

The issue I'm having is I have to manually reduce the quantity in stock when an order is placed. I thought this was done automatically by this Mod? Am I missing something?
I'm using Zencart vs.1.37. I installed the Products with Attributes Stock Mod on 04/07.

Here is my setup in Admin:
Check Stock Level = True
Subtract Stock = True
Allow Checkout = False

Should I update to the latest Mod submitted?

Thanks for any help?

Hi Robbyn7,

Were you able to resolve the problem you identified? If so, how did you resolve the problem? I'm having the same problem with the mod not reducing the inventory count when an order is placed. It reduces the total inventory count but the attribute inventory remains constant and has to be manually reduced. Everything else is working fine. I have reinstalled the mod several times with no success. I am using the latest Zen Cart with version 4.7 Products with Attribute mod.

I am still running 1.3.7 because I am always terrified of an upgrade. If I install this mod will it work with my version seeing how it is up to speed with 1.3.8?

I wouldn't recommend this. Because of its insertions into the core code, this mod is quite sensitive to the version of Zen Cart to which it is added.

Instead, I'd recommend popping back and grabbing a copy of version 4.6, which is compatible with Zen Cart 1.3.7

Posts #308 and#319 explain the two most common causes of this problem. Renamed admins can also be a problem if you don't also rename the admin folders in the mod before doing the installation.

Building custom loading pages for specific situations isn't too difficult for somebody with programming skills and an understanding of the underlying attribute structure. If you don't have these yourself, then you could try the Commercial Help Wanted section of the forum.

Coming up with a generic approach that would fit all situations is immensely more difficult. I've seen sites using this mod that have as many as ten attributes for some products. Entering the stock for them is a nightmare, but I haven't personally been able to come up with a practical way of representing a 10-dimensional matrix on a 2-dimensional screen other than by reducing it to a linear list.

The multiadd and ajax versions of this mod attempt to alleviate the problem, but I haven't developed any sites recently that needed this functionality, so don't know how successful they are.

I dont understand what you mean by "multiadd and ajax versions of this mod attempt to alleviate the problem" & "haven't developed any sites recently that needed this functionality"

Hi,

Much more expensive then I was hoping. - about $150-170 and 1 week.

Daniel

anything will help if we go ahead

The problem is that it is difficult to add stock for products with more than one attribute as the number of possible combinations can be very big.

The multiadd and ajax versions try to make it easier.

I don't know if they succeed because I haven't used them.

I wish you well. The price you were quoted might just get you a custom loader for your site's specific attribute structure. However, if it's for a generic solution that would work for all contributors, then I fear that the developer has either found a revolutionary new solution, or failed to grasp to scale of the task. I wish you well, but advise caution. If you need an experienced pair of eyes to look over your spec or evaluate the quality of the response that you've received, feel free to PM me.

Hi,

Im not sure if I am being blind or stupid or both.

I just reread the read me and it says allow multiple attribute combinations to be added at the same time.

How do I do that? I can only get one attribute at a time,

For example I would like:
Colour --> Red
Colour --> Green
Colour --> Pink

All added at the same page,

Thanks
