Title: Do not allow Add To Cart Until Varriants have been Chosen
Post by: Newbie74 on January 03, 2019, 08:35:33 AM
Hello again you fine people at VM.

I would like to be able to make sure that the shopper follows this journey:

1st - Select the product they are interested in. (without seeing the add to cart button at this point)

2nd - After selecting the product, they must select size, color (any varriants) etc, ONLY then being able to ADD TO CART

Is this possible and could you show me how?

Thank you
Quirky ¿

depends on your setup but normally it would be child products and an unorderable parent

Install the demo somewhere and experiment .. just this scenario is there

I made a plugin where you can force the user to select the options
See  http://pro.st42.fr/en/shortcodes/checkboxes-insurances.html or http://pro.st42.fr/en/shortcodes/teste-discount-2401.html

As GJC says, use parent/child. For example see http://demo.virtuemart.net/t-shirt-classic-blue-detail

Hello,

Is it not possible to simply make a custom field compulsory to select an option?
