Show another Attribute type in shop categories.

[Runge1980]

Hi guys.

 

I'm having a returning issue in my shop I just can't figure out... And it's driving me crazy :-(

If you have products that uses the color attribute there is no problem.

The problem is as following:

I have products that come in different lengths and models and need a indication of that for the customers.

if you see this page it makes sense: http://techstore.dk/31-hdmi-kabler

Here there are some cables in the HDMI category but you can't see that they are available in different lengths.

Only when you click on the product you will see the drop-down menu.

This is not very user friendly for the customers as they are not made aware of it comes in other lengths.

 

Is there not a feature that supports this in PS?

it could be a text in front of the price saying: From /Starts From etc. if the product comes in different lengths.

And: More models if it's a item depending on a specific model.

 

Standard PS is doing the indication spot on when the attributes are color.

Can't be true that i'm the only one with this issue.??

You could add code like the following to product-list.tpl:

{if $product.id_product_attribute > 0}{l s='More options available'}{/if}

{if $product.id_product_attribute > 0}{l s='More options available'}{/if}

Ok mate will try that.

Could it be possible to do it a bit more specific if you have 2 more attributes beside the color on.

I would need the following:

when a item is in more lengths (see more lengths)

and when a item is model specific (See models)

just an example. as it will be in danish :-)

Here is a pic of where it puts the text + a idea of what it should / could look like in example 1+2

You can add something like the following below the {hook h="displayProductPriceBlock" product=$product type="weight"} line in product-list.tpl:

                    {foreach from=Product::getAttributesParams($product.id_product, $product.id_product_attribute) item='attribute'}
                        {if $attribute.id_attribute_group == 1}
                            {l s='More lengths available'}
                            {break}
                        {elseif $attribute.id_attribute_group == 2}
                            {l s='More models available'}
                            {break}
                        {/if} 
                    {/foreach}

Change 1 to the ID of the Length attribute group and 2 to the ID of the Models attribute group. You can add more if statements as required.

It's themes/pf_nextstore/product-list.tpl that you should edit. You can find the attribute group IDs on your Catalog > Product Attributes tab in the Back Office.

This is how it looks in the pf_nextstore product-list.tpl file.

Any specific place the code should be added?

Tried putting it in in the end. that just made some 500 internal errors on the site.

[rocky]

That is completely different to the default theme. It seems the products themselves are in themes/pf_nextstore/sub/product/swap.tpl.

So it would be there the code should be imbedded or? 

[rocky]

Yes, I hope so. It's hard to know, since I'm not familiar with your theme.

[Runge1980]

ok i will try at ones.

I actually tried to contact the company that made the theme with the same post as here and here is what they said:

hi, thank for your idea. it is great. but this problem have to hack code, you can contact with prestashop to help. sorry i can't help you

thanks

[Runge1980]

Still get the 500 internal

[rocky]

Sorry, there was a typo in my code. It should be == 2} not == 2'}

 

If you still have problems after fixing that, you can edit config/defines.inc.php and change PS_DEV_MODE from false to true and you'll get an error message instead of a 500 error.

[Runge1980]

Hmmm strange...

 

It does not do anything, and have tried it in every folder

[rocky]

It's working fine on my PrestaShop v1.6.1.6 test site. Here's what I see:

 

 

Because the demo products use the "Size" attribute, which has an attribute group ID of 1, all the products say "More lengths available".

Ok.. where did you put the code? In bootstrap => produkt-list.tpl ?

Should I get in touch with the ones that made the theme.

[rocky]

Yes, it was themes/default-bootstrap/product-list.tpl where I put the code. You can try to get in touch with your theme developer, though they may not be willing to adapt the modification to their theme.

Ok

Alternativ is there a module that supports this

[rocky]

It would be possible to write a module to do it. The module would need to have a function like this:

public function hookDisplayProductPriceBlock($params)
{
    if ($params['type'] == 'weight') {
        foreach (Product::getAttributesParams($params['product']['id_product'], $params['product']['id_product_attribute') as $attribute) {
            if ($attribute['id_attribute_group'] == 1) {
                return '<p>'.$this->l('More lengths available').'</p>';
            } elseif ($attribute['id_attribute_group'] == 2) {
                return '<p>'.$this->l('More models available').'</p>';
            }
        }
    }
}
