Product set up - Option configurations plus shopping based on quantity (NEWBIE)

Hi guys

I'm working with a friend to help set up an Estore to their requirements. This is my first ZenCart site and I'm still fairly new to webdesign. :blush:

Looking for help with the following items:

(1) Product Configuration Options - How do I set up the below

Each items has more than one option. Example below.

Product A
First need to select Size (either size 1 or 2)
Size 1 has 5 options, and size 2 has a different set of options

Can I set these up from Admin, or do I need to get into the HTML/JavaScript/PHP?

**(2) Free shipping based on quantity of items ordered - How do I set this up? **

Free shipping can be obtained by purchasing a minimum quantity of any 20 items across all products.

Thanks to anyone that can help!
Jess

  1. That's called 'dependent attributes' and there's no provision for in in the current Zencart version. If you have the ability to write a mod for such a function, I can assure you there would be a lot of interest.

  2. Admin - Modules - Shipping - Free Shipping Options

Thanks Steve!

I will try and tackle the dependant attributes at some other stage, when I have more time and a little bit more experience with the cart system. I think for now i'll lump together to form a drop down menu. Not ideal, but it will do the job for now.

Cheers :)

Re: Product set up - Option configurations plus shopping based on quantity (NEWBIE)

Hi, this is product name value issue. I am adding book name with author in product name in admin along with some HTML code. I ran into an issue of not having enough space on one of my entries. Can someone point me in the direction of how to revise the number of spaces avilable for product name value? I am using v139h, no mods added, see: https://www.mimirbooks.com.
I have searched, but have not found answer to this exact issue. Thanks,
Mike
