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

I've just installed 4.7ajax on my test site.

Having a problem with being able to check out with more items than are actually in stock.

For example, I have 6 sachets of Grape kool aid. This is set up as an attribute along with other flavours. It will let me checkout with 7 or more sachets of grape.

But, if I put in a number greater than the total number of kool aid sachets in stock altogether, it won't let me check out.

How do I change it so that it prevents check out based on individual stock attributes, rather than the total number of stock in all attributes?

(Hope that makes sense!) :blink:

Anyone? Please?!

I've uploaded (via Cpanel not FTP) all the SBA 4.7ajax files again and still same problem.

What else should I be looking at?

Really? That's a pretty big shortcoming for something that's supposed to control inventory!

I have sucessfully installed.

I tried on one product:

Colour - Black - 10
Colour - ACU - 10
Colour - CYB - 10
Total qty = 30

When i test sell one black. Total quantity becomes 29, BUT black attribute is still 10?
I clicked the snyc quantity and the total quantity became 30 again :P

Is this normal??

XxDrAg0nxX:

Is this normal??No. It means that it's not installed properly so that stock tracking is still taking place at product rather than product variant level. Double check your includes/classes/order.php file. Make sure you have the one that comes with the mod installed and there are no copies or backups in that folder.

Hmm I just double checked the downloaded files, there is no override for the includes/classes/order.php

However there is one in admin/orders.php

XxDrAg0nxX:

Hmm I just double checked the downloaded files, there is no override for the includes/classes/order.phpNot quite sure what you mean here. Zen Cart doesn't currently support over-riding of classes, so the file in the base distribution needs to be replaced by the one that comes with the version of the mod that you are using (you haven't actually said which that is).

Sorry I didnt realise there were different versions.
I am using the AJAX one.

I just double checked the uploaded AJAX one from the server, there is definately NO includes/classes/order.php

I downloaded the Multiadd version, there IS an includes/classes/order.php

I just copied just the order.php over, and it worked fine after that.

Am I the only one who is experiencing the missing file from the AJAX version? :(

That rather key file does seem to be missing from the distribution. Other posts in this forum suggest that there are some other formatting wrinkles too. Wonder if there might be other files missing. Shame, because it's basically a good idea.

Umm... I think that is not the only file missing... lol...

I think i am gonna switch :P

I think i am gonna switch :PIt may be worthwhile installing one of the vanilla 4.7 first (definitely not missing files and without at least one bug in the multiadd version) and then installing the AJAX version (which is theoretically based on vanilla) over the top. That ordering might give you AJAX without gaps.

Ok I think i will do just that :D

BTW I just tested something, if I were to sell black -2, and if I were to cancel the order, the total quantity is restocked +2, back to 30, but black attribute is still short of 2...

Is that normal?

I'm having the same problem. Can you please provide the link or tell me where to go to download the Mutiadd version. Thanks

I compared the files delivered by both SBA 4.7MULTIADD and 4.7ajax. From what I can tell the following files are missing from ajax:

admin\includes\stock_attributes.css
admin\includes\stylesheet.css
includes\classes\order.php

I've removed the ajax files and uploaded clean 4.7MULTIADD, but it is still letting me checkout with 7 attribute stock items when I only have 6 in stock.

So, now I'm going to remove SBA completely and start again with 4.7 vanilla. Wish me luck!

includes\classes\order.phpThe absence of those files would completely explain both the bugs, i.e. layout and failure to manage stock at the attribute level, that have been observed in in the AJAX version.

No luck wished (shouldn't be necessary), just advice ...

1. ensure that your old includes/classes/order.php file gets over-written by the new one (sometimes FTP tools don't over-write files that are already there)
2. check that you have your stock settings configured both to check stock and to prevent checkout if its too low (Admin > Configuration > Stock Settings)
3. don't leave any backups sitting around in your classes folder (sometimes FTP tools create these automatically)
