Title: Custom field cart variant
Post by: lombiz on September 03, 2025, 09:54:45 AM
Hi,
I am trying to setup options for products with 3 size options and then I want to add prices for each option/product.
I think cart variant is correct but cannot find it in my custom field list.

Also tried plugin "Stockable Custom Fields" but cannot get it to work and hasn't been updated for 3 yrs so maybe outdated.

Can anyone advise please!

Joomla and VM 4

Thanks in advance!
/Peter

Any custom field type can be a cart variant, if you enable the "Cart Attribute" and "Cart Input" settings.

Where did you see that? The last release is in January 2025.

OK help me out,plz.  It is probably supersimple but stuck and gemini etc confused the shit out of me :)

I want a standard dropdown menu I can add to any product with set formats/sizes
Then if I add to product in backend I want to be able to add specific price to the sizes just for that product and so on.

Thanks in advance!

Br, Peter

You either have to use "Multi Variant", "Generic Child Variant" or the "Stockable Custom Fields" as custom field.
On how to use these, please address to their docs.
I think the "Stockable Custom Fields" is the easiest to get, but the decision is yours.
