Hey guys, I need to implement a way to use existing child products from another category as custom fields in a specific product for the purposes of building an offer but can't see if this is easily done. If not I would be interested to hear of workarounds to do what I need - it needs to adhere to the stock control I have in place for the rest of the site.
Essentially, I sell about 80 flavours of e-liquids which naturally are all listed in their respective categories. I also sell e-cig kits, also in their respective categories. Finally I sell accessories in their own category.
I want to offer a product that is a kit, made up of an e-cig kit and an accessory with 3 e-liquids in the kit made up from stock, the customer nheeds to be able to select liquid option 1 (with the strength) option 2 and option 3 from the entire range I have in stock.
I cannot see how to do this other than having to setup the same products again just for the kit, rather than just linking the exiting ones
I think this extension by BreakDesigns will help you (Product Builder) - http://breakdesigns.net/virtuemart-product-builder
Thanks ! I have been wondering if there is one of these bundling tools (what Prestashop has in core)
Thanks Deb, I had looked at that but I am loathe to buy yet more third party software without trying it first to ensure it works and I have not seen any option to test backends with Product Builder
