Adding multiple products and attributes at once

Ok I'm bit overwhelmed by the amount of mods and options with zen so I wanted to ask your expertise on this one

Im trying to make a wholesale store. For example a product would have five different size options (attributes) and every size costs the same..

Which is the easiest way to do this? So the cart understands that every attribute multiplies the price and also that multiple attributes and quantities could be added to cart at once?

MANY THANKS!

Edit: And I don't need any stock management with this fex stock by attributes...

Re: Adding multiple products and attributes at once

Check in the Free Software Add Ons for Easy Populate. I don't use it, so I can't give you any more info, but there are support threads on the forum for it.

Re: Adding multiple products and attributes at once

I've never used easy populate either but isn't it more like an excel bulk product uploader type of thing?

I just need to be able to select multiple attributes at once and add them to cart (like price by the attributes?). That's all.

Basically an item would be fex a tshirt and probably a wholesale customer would order like 2 small 3m 3l 2xl.. I'd like to able that customer could EITHER select the quantity directly from the product view or alter the quantities per size (per attribute) from the shopping cart.

Any advice which mod could do this?

Re: Adding multiple products and attributes at once

I think maybe just a quantity box for each attribute/size and or color, etc. might do what you want? There's a couple of mods for attributes that will be a big help.

This one will give you the quantity boxes for attributes. Then someone can buy multiples of sizes/colors from the one product page.

Re: Adding multiple products and attributes at once

I think the mod is quite what I'm after but I'm still really confused..

Basically what I understood from the mod's demo that all the attributes are priced seperately? In my case there is only a product with one price but with multiple attributes but the price remains. We just need the info what attributes customers want and we'll manufacture accordingly...

It would be endless job to type in the price a million times for every attribute..

Re: Adding multiple products and attributes at once

After messing around for a while.. the mod is exactly the thing for this! Just select the grid option from the attribute setup which I totally managed to miss out. PERFECT!

Good, I'm glad it helped you. I'd be lost without that mod myself!
