HAIRWEBSHOP Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hello, We do not have an active inventory management. However, for outlet products, we would like to set number of products in stock manually. I sort of managed to do this, but: In stock notice is all colored red, except for products whom I have set up manually (those are green) The product filter thinks that nothing is in stock, except for products whom I have set up manually Can someone please help me figure this out?Thank you in advance!

shokinro Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I think you have to manually set quantity for all products if you want to make it available for sale. if the product does not need stock management, you can set a very large number (such as 99999999), so you do not bother to set it again but it will be available for sale.

HAIRWEBSHOP Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hello shokinro, and thank you kindly for your reply! Customers are able to purchase items, as all products are set to Allow Orders by default. However, prestashop treats all products as "out of stock" unless I specify available quantities manually, which is needed for some of the outlet products. Also, if I were to specify available quantities manually, it will be displayed.However, if choose to hide it using CSS, the outlet products that do need to display quantity, will not be outputted. It's a difficult situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shokinro Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You may consider use a workaround as following: check the quantity of product and use this to hide the number of items available or anything else you want to hide. {if $product->quantity < 100000000} show something {/if} And set quantity those product does not need stock to a number great the above number, for example double of above number. The number should be bigger enough that it never reaches. It is not a very good solution, but I think it should solve your problem. It is not a very good solution, but I think it should solve your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shokinro Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 It is product page, the file should be as following /themes/YourThemeFolder/product.tpl But be noted, the code is posted in previous message is not tested, you have to test that by your self. For mass update, You may have to use sql statement via database tool such as phpmyadmin, you may be look for a 3rd party module. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAIRWEBSHOP Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thank you kindly for your support.I think this may be the solution to our problem. I have two questions, though: In which file exactly do I need to paste the code? Is it possible to mass set quantity to 200000000?We have over 5000+ products, it's very time consuming to make changes like that. Thank you.
