Stock by Attribute v4.0 addon for v1.3.5-1.3.9

Is there a way to not have an attribute option appear if the stock for that option is zero? Rather than have the customer sent to the cart and then find out it is not available...

ie product AA has 3 options: small, medium & large. Stock values are : 1,** 0**, **1 **respectively. Ideally the selections presented on the product page are: small and large as that is all that is in stock.

In our dreams...

Sort of. I'm zc 1.3.9h, using SbA v 1.4.9 with ajax (I haven't updated as folks seem to be having trouble with new versions that I am not having. So I am very afraid!)

I also use Product Attribute Grid v1.1.1

So my product page shows a grid - in my case by colour and size of socks. It shows HOW MANY are in stock underneath each type. If the stock is zero, the 'add # to cart' box for that type is replaced with a red 'x' - so at least the customer can not enter a buy for something not existing, and therefore won't be sent off to the cart before they find out.

If the customer enters a number higher than the number showing in stock for a type, they will be allowed to go to the checkout page - where they will get an error message about stock shortfall and they can revise their order.

sample product with an out of stock attribute:

You can have it not show the option at all or you can have it show as out of stock.

I have SBA and Dynamic Dropdowns by SBA and can confirm that these two working together will appear the way the other poster requested. That is, out of stock items will no longer appear as an option.

THANKS!!!!!!!! I've been pulling my hairs for days trying to find out how to solve the problem as customers with product out of stock in their cart were unable to place the order and with no error message they had no idea what to do!

Thanks a lot!

:hug:

When I uncomment this code if I add a product that is in stock to a cart which already contains something flagged as out of stock, although the header message remains:
"Products marked with *** are out of stock. Items not in stock will be placed on backorder."
The "***" flag is removed from the item which is out of stock. :(

CarolineBogart:

I hope this helps the people on this thread.

The store I'm debugging has both items priced by stock attributes and items not priced by stock attributes.

For items not priced by attributes, if the customer asked for a quantity greater than that in stock, but the "out of stock" message did not display.

In priced by attributes version 1.4.13, in
includes/modules/pages/shopping_cart/header_php.php,
the code to check for "out of stock" on items not priced by attributes is commented out.

Uncomment these lines at about line 146:
if (STOCK_CHECK == 'true') {
$flagStockCheck = zen_check_stock($products[$i]['id'], $products[$i]['quantity']);
if ($flagStockCheck == true) {
$flagAnyOutOfStock = true;
}
}

jodpcc: if I understand the question, I'd quibble with the fact that it's a problem. If I'm going to change code of that nature, I'm going to also wipe cache or reset the server or something to wipe out people's carts. It's not a fair test to change the code in mid cart like that.

I obviously didn't explain very well :blush:
The sequence of events is :

I revert to the standard module and uncomment the code in question.

I add a product that is in stock to my cart
I add a product that is out of stock to my cart
I add a product that is in stock to my cart

When I add the product which is out of stock it correctly processes i.e.
I get a header message saying "Products marked with *** are out of stock. Items not in stock will be placed on backorder."
A "***" flag appears next to the out of stock item in the cart.

When I add the next product which is in stock it processes incorrectly i.e.
I correctly get a header message saying "Products marked with *** are out of stock. Items not in stock will be placed on backorder."
Unfortunately the "***" flag no longer appears next to the out of stock item in the cart.

So I have reverted back to the "Athena Code" :smile: which processes correctly for me. I would appreciate it if some others could confirm the sequence of events on their systems for the standard module with the code uncommented as suggested by CarolineBogart, as this might be an issue specific to my system.

I'm sorry I've been too swamped to try this in my test cart but have been monitoring this thread and will try late today.

Yeah...sorry CarolineBogart - wish it worked but two things:

unlike jodpcc I still got the out of stock warning next to the original our of stock product....but no warning at all for the additional out of stock products I put in the cart.

when I put the old header_php back, everything was fine.

(had some down time so went for it...wouldn't hurt to play with this idea a bit more, if only the code writer for this version of the mod would comment)

I have the same problem as icebeer posted on page 129.
The SAVE Button doesn't work on the admin Products with Attributes Stock page.
I have to change Quantity for all variants one by one.

I see in Version: 1.4.11 this bug was fixed;
(- fixed ability to update multiple stock attributes at once (use "save" button at top or bottom of page))

I'm using Version: 1.4.13 on Zen Cart™ Version: v1.3.9h.

Can anybody tell me how to fix this problem?

I'm looking at the file products_with_attributes_stock.php and the XJAX files hoping to find something.

IN the file (products_with_attributes_stock_ajax.js)
Should it read #save not #store

$(document).ready(function() { 
    // bind form using ajaxForm 
    $('#store').ajaxForm({ 
        // target identifies the element(s) to update with the server response 
        target: '#hugo1', 
        success: saved
 
        // success identifies the function to invoke when the server response 
        // has been received; here we apply a fade-in effect to the new content 
    }); 
});

I see no identifier named #store anywhere

Just now found the error in the file products_with_attributes_stock.php on line 482.

    **echo '<div id="pwa-table"';**

IS MISSING >

It should read     **echo '<div id="pwa-table">';**
Everything is working now. 

I wounder what next bug I'll find if any. Hoping this is it

icebeer:

My zencart is 1.3.8 I stalled the Add ON Stock by Attributes ,it works fine , but right now the SAVE Button doesn't work. I have to change Quantity for all variants one by one , not like before I can changed it in bulk.

I changed nothing, just few days ago it doesn't work.

Anyone can help me?
Thanks lot!

:clap: Fantastic webstar59, just applied this change and seems to work perfectly :o) Didn't even realise this feature existed (well I guess it didn't til just now), have just been trudging through updates one at a time :cry:

sigh :cry: I've spent hours reading through this thread to try to get this mod to work properly for me. I updated my header_php.php file with the code Athena posted on page 114 and it just will not work for me. I don't understand. It seems to be working for everyone else. I have no clue what to do and I'm almost ready to give up. :(

edited to add: I'm having the issue with the quantities not working properly in the shopping cart. Whenever something is added that's out of stock, it puts everything in the cart out of stock whether it's in stock or not.

I must say I'm having exactly the same problem. Going to read up some more.

HELP ! ! ! I downloaded the addon as instructed, but it is showing up in my back office just like this:

CES:

I must say I'm having exactly the same problem. Going to read up some more.

Further information, I used Athena's code and it is now working fine. :-)

Slight problem I had with one of my items showing out of stock when they were in stock for all variations. I deleted them all and inserted new variations individually, not 'all at once' and it seems to have worked!
