VM Stockable variants issue

[wlaagewaard]

Hi i have version 2.9.9 and i dont have any options to set in my stockable values. what is changed



i want to add the stock for sizes. but i cant see any options

[GJC Web Design]

Stockable variants aren't used in VM3

there is a new handling for this - easiest is install the example data and you can see all the various examples now possible

Use the new "Child Variants" option! I need here more input. Please download the new 2.9.9c  http://dev.virtuemart.net/attachments/download/800/com_virtuemart.2.9.9c_extract_first.zip

Hello Milbo,

thanks for your answer. But i am bit lost in understanding this flow.

What my goal is that i want to reach is the following. I have a product in 2 sizes S and L. For Size S i have 10 in stock and L i have 1.

Based on the stock i want to show the custom fields S and M.

So i tried to create a parent with 2 children. BTW in this version i dont see which children i have on the parent product.

I created a demo environment and i installed the sample data. but i couldnt figure out how it was configured.

If you want we can skype: Diversity-International

Can you also elaborate the override checkbox.

And i also set the parameter  Do not Display Product, if child products also out of stock.

but it was no use

Sorry Milbo, I'm testing VM3 with J2.5.27, could you tell me where I can see the usage of the custom field type "Child Variant" (not the "Generic Child Variant")? there is any tutorial or example to understand it?
I made a test installation with the demo data but I still didn't understood how it works, thank you.

I noticed that with more than 2 Child products the custom field don't work, I'm surely doing something wrong...

[Geppux]

I understood that it's not working because if I have 3 variants with 3 values I must have 9 child products, but I noticed that in the assignments of the different values of the variants , in addition to the child products there is also the parent, that I don't want to be sold, how can avoid it? I don't find an option "parent not for sale" like in the Generic Child Variant.

Can someone help me? thank you.

ok, nobody can help me!!! 

[Milbo]

I am sorry, I need definitly to write a small tutorial. Or I explain it via skype against a tutorial ?

[Geppux]

Well... a tutorial should be GREAT!!!

I installed the example data and I understood some things but the Child Varian is not used in the example, only the generic child variant

[joseph_2]

a small tutorial regarding the child variants would be fine, we wait patiently

[joseph_2]

I installed the sample data of Virtuemart, that explains a lot

First of all I want to thank you for your work and for the new version of the VM!

1. Now testing a custom field children variant. I would like to know something I do not do so, or it is a bug.

When choosing a a child product category page, product tried to change, but it remains the parent product. The card product changes all right. Tell me, please, what's the problem?

Version VM 3.0.3.

2. Also in the parameters of the field parameter value is not clear and there is no reason translation:
COM_VIRTUEMART_CUSTOM_PARAM_SELECTOPTIONS
COM_VIRTUEMART_CUSTOM_PARAM_CLABELS
COM_VIRTUEMART_CUSTOM_PARAM_OPTIONS

3. Earlier price using field Stoсkаblу variant formed based on the price of the parent product. How to generate the same principle, using field Children variant?

[AnSit]

It turns out, and you have a website field Сhildren variant not fully displayed and is not working.
