How to prepare cart with few products for customer?

[Tomi14]

I want to create shoping cart with few products in, and send a link to customer.

There are a lot of individual products in the store, you need 4 or 5 to complete a set, and I would like to make shopping easier for interested customer.

There is no such option by default but you can use wishlist module for create products list and send it to customer in single link by sharing those list.

Are you familiar with writing modules? You can make a copy of the simple Buy button module and make some adjustments to make it work. In RedirectManager.php file, you have $this->addProductToCart($idProduct, $idProductAttribute) function which is responsible for adding products to the cart. You must provide all product parameters in the url, e.g. module/ps_buybuttonlite/RedirectManager?action=1&products=1,1-2,null-3,2 and update the addProductToCart() function to return the correct product id and attribute id parameters from url params. So from the url params products=1,1-2,null-3,2 you should have an array like [0 => [1,1], 1 => [2, null], 2=> [3,2]]. Put new array in foreach loop where you put data inside addProductToCart() function. 

If you are not a developer, you can write a request to rework the module on the forum

Option mentioned by @Piotr3qx don't only create cart but also add products to customer existing cart so in that case if customer don't remember what products have already in cart will not be aware what exactly products are added by seller. In some cases it could be valuable behaviour but in other cases not.

I don't know that much about it. Just enough to correct a line of code to get the effect.

I would like to be able to send this to customers without an account on my store. I collect three or four products to buy, give a discount code, send a link and if the customer wants it, he buys it at a discounted price.

You definitely should check how wishlist module work.

I already found it, following the previous advice, but I haven't figured out yet how to create a link without customer data.

[endriu107]

What do you mean by "without customer data"? 

Shared link don't show what customer was create products list.

[TiaNex Shopping]

there is a "context" for each customer even guest,

you can add the product to the  cart when the context created

How about creating a user for the customer and then send his link to him/her?

And if you have several customers or you just want to prefill a cart for anybody who open the link? 🙂
