Inventory for Products with attributes

Can Zen Cart accomodate tracking inventory for each attribute separately?

Example:

I have "make 7up yours" T-shirts.

100 Large
50 Medium
5 smalls

I want the smalls to show "Out of Stock" Automatically when they are sold out but leave the other sizes in stock untill inventory=0.

Re: Inventory for Products with attributes

Ok..I could really use this...but I have no idea where to extract the file to.

Could someone help me with this?

Re: Inventory for Products with attributes

Disclaimer: I am new to this too, so take whatever I say with a couple grains of salt

once you unpack the zip file, there is a readme.html file that has all of the official installation info.you need to do three things:

  1. Backup.

  2. Create a new database table. go to your admin page and navigate to Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patches. where it says "upload file" browse to where you unzipped the "stock_attribute.sql" file.

  3. drag the includes and admin folders from the zip into your store files. Overwrite the original files.

I haven't actually begun to use it yet, but it seems to be installed correctly on my site.

Let me know how it works(or doesn't) for you.

Re: Inventory for Products with attributes

Thanks, Jake...it turns out I'm using the wrong version, I need to use the older version by danielcor.

Every time it gets to the point where I feel like I've bitten off a little too much with this, something happens and I 'get it.'

It's downloaded, I've printed the 'readme' and I think I'll worry about it tomorrow.

Thanks, again. I really appreciate the response.
