[SOLVED] Add a new Stock option, Direct from manufacturer - Ask for stock check

[evolution.x]

Hi,

 

At the moment i have quite a few products which are sent directly from the manufacturer.

 

All of these products are showing "In Stock" in the store, problem is that some may not be in stock with the manufacturer.

 

Is there any way i could add a new option to the product page in BO, for example a checkbox which would be "Is this product sent direct from manufacturer?" if the box is ticked it will show in the store front "Product sent direct from manufacturer, please email us to check stock levels" instead of "In Stock".

 

Any help on this would be great!

 

Thanks.

If all these products have the same supplier or manufacturer you could do some testing in your template.

 

{if $product->supplier_name == 'your supplier'}
Please email us to check stock levels
{else}
The code block that displays stock
{/if}

Hi,

 

Thanks for that, works perfectly.

 

Any idea how to exclude 2 product ID as 2 of the product i always hold in stock?

 

Cheers

Fixed with this

 

{if $product->manufacturer_name == 'My Manufacturer' & $product->id != 225 & $product->id != 226}
