Title: Issues with getting variant products / layout
Post by: SpydrSS on December 03, 2016, 16:32:11 PM
Hi,

VirtueMart 3.0.18

I would hate it if someone says this cant be achieved with virtuemart, as I am always promoting virtuemart to my clients, and I have made a number of shopping carts, however I am stumped on this one:

I basically have 2 issues:

1) My client wants to sell contact lenses, and such it has attributes, and an option to buy a box for the left eye and a box for the right, or both. So my problem is that I am not achiving this with child varients or multi variants. This is what I want:
https://www.eyesupply.co.za/collections/air-optix/products/air-optix-aqua (https://www.eyesupply.co.za/collections/air-optix/products/air-optix-aqua)

But this is as far as I can get:
Option 1: http://sbmediaprojects.co.za/paigeone/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_category_id=8&virtuemart_product_id=22 (http://sbmediaprojects.co.za/paigeone/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_category_id=8&virtuemart_product_id=22) (This product has no price in category view) or
Option 2: http://sbmediaprojects.co.za/paigeone/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=23&virtuemart_category_id=8 (http://sbmediaprojects.co.za/paigeone/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=23&virtuemart_category_id=8) (This product Woul be ideal if I could get either the left or right eye to have a select box for each one to add to cart...

Unfortunately I cant get my head around the multi variants as I am sure this would be the right way to go, but there are so many variants as you can see by the drop down SPH/PWR... Is there an easy way to set this up...

The fun part also coming in the next phase is the frames (and option dor lenses)... So a client will be able to purchase a frame, and then have the option to add lenses with atributes as per this site:
http://www.eyeweardirect.co.za/sbmedia/index.php?ref=default&action=single&id=1650 (http://www.eyeweardirect.co.za/sbmedia/index.php?ref=default&action=single&id=1650) <- Please click on the add to cart button, and then you will see the attributes...

I would hate to go away from virtuemart, however I am stumpoed and on a time limit... PLEASE HELP :-[

Regards
Stanley Rieck

You can do it on using http://shop.st42.fr/en/products/product-child-variants.htm (can display add to cart) and do an overide to see your fields.
If you need to customise it, contact me, i can adapt it in 1 hour or 2.
