Hi folks,
I need help desperately on this one. I have searched but cant find the answer...
The issue is in adding additional items by quantity to a VM2 order, eg, the main product is "Breakfast Menu" (this is just a simple example... it could get much more complex)
This product includes:
• Cereal of 3 different types (A, B & C),
• Tea/Coffee
• Juices of 4 different types (Orange, Apple, Mango, Grapefruit).
So, lets say, a customer wants to order 10 breakfast menu packages, with:
Cereal
8 Cereal "A"
2 Cereal "B",
Tea/Coffee
6 coffees,
4 teas,
Juice
2 Orange juice,
3 Mango juice
5 Apple juice
I can add the Tea/Coffee and Juice combinations as custom fields, but the selection of Tea/Coffee and Juice is wrong.... If I select "Tea", I get 10 teas..... If I select Mango Juice", I get 10 Mango juice.... Etc...
How do I distinguish the various quantities? And some of them might even have different prices. I think I need a quantity selection on the custom fields.
I am really, really tearing my hair out here, and any assistance would be most gratefully appreciated..... even a pointer to a plugin/module which can help do this?
thanks folks,
Mike
You could do this a couple of ways. First, look into Product Builder (but cereals, juices, etc. would all need to be treated as products) - http://breakdesigns.net/virtuemart-product-builder
Or we could do it for you as a custom development project leveraging an integration we have created with Breezing Forms and VM2. If the off-the-shelf Product Builder doesn't work the way you need, please send us a few details at https://PolishedGeek.com/clients/contact.php .
Hi Deb,
Thanks a million for your reply.
Because I am 'under the pump' so to speak, to get this done soon, I might drop you a not at pg.com in regards to leveraging that development you did before.
I will also look at Product Builder as you suggested.
Thanks again.
Mike

Hi Robet.
Thanks a million for that.... I will certainly look into this option.
I have sent a note to Deb at Polished Geek, and am waiting for a reply...... Will definitely look into this.
If needs be, would you mind if I sent you a PM at some stage if I cant hack this one through (no immediate intentions to do this of course... I'm only asking, just in case).
regards
Mike
