Stocks by attributes

[kuroi]

I tried to search for this but couldn't find anything. I'm sure it is somewhere. When a customer using Internet Explorer uses our site, the site does not use the attributes we have listed. i.e. someone buys a green diaper but when it gets added to the cart just a diaper shows up (sorry baby business).

This error does not occur in Chrome or Firefox. Which is why it has taken me 2 weeks to figure out.

Please point me in the right direction.

Thanks

For any cross browser problem, the first thing to check is whether you have validation errors in the core being output.

Nowadays browsers do a fairly good job of rendering correctly structured code consistently. So differences are almost always because of coding errors.

Applying this approach to your product page shows that you have nested a second form (wishpot) inside the main form and worse, the code isn't xhtml compatible so the browsers are seeing incomplete input fields. Some browsers are managing to make sense of this (probably by ignoring it completely, others not - hence the inconsistency that you're seeing).

So this is nothing to do with stock by attributes and instead is related to other changes that you have made to your product page.

Found my answer accidentally in this post
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=72719 - it was actually the wishpot addin on this one.

I have two sites one using this SBA ajax mod and the other using the other SBA mod.

After upgrading to 1.39h yesterday i alerted the other mod creator that there are issues with the modules/pages/shopping_cart/header_php.php file which are replaced by new files in 1.39h.

Having changed my other site this morning over to 1.39h which runs on this ajax version of SBA the same issue remains on this ajax version of SBA.

I have tried merging the SBA Alax mod header_php.php with the 1.39h version without sucess.

At checkout now there is no ability to prevent customers from purchasing out of stock items.

Did you try the code I posted in the other post you have made? I also updated the mod yesterday. My version is the only really updated version the other one have nit been supported in like forever. It's user supported only. Try the codes I posted.

Hi

Thanks for the reply. Yes your file working on your SBA mod but not on this Ajax one which i have on another site which was updated last by Numinix.

Same problem, at checkout out of stock items are being displayed with no warning advising customers the items selected are not available.

Its probably missing an attribute query in the header.php file.

Look for in the header.php files

$flagStockCheck = zen_check_stock($products[$i]['id'], $products[$i]['quantity']);

and change to:

$flagStockCheck = zen_check_stock($products[$i]['id'], $products[$i]['quantity'],$attributes);

Many thanks, that did it! By merging the SBA header and the new 1.39h header_php file and making that one line change it appears to have fixed the issue.

Glad to hear it works. =)

after SBA installed, the original zen cart sales report can not show the actual sales...

Sorry for the noob question but i've just installed stock by attributes, created a product and using stock by attributes defined a quantity for each variant. The quantities are not updating when I make a test purchase....where am i going wrong?
