daztheblue Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Hi I've created a pack (using Advanced Pack 4) which contains multiple products each with their own attribute set. This works fine in the product display. However, although the attributes for each product pull through to make the pack, the layered navigation within this category doesn't pull the attributes through. Is this a bug, limitation or a configuration issue? The developer of Advanced Pack says its a Layered Navigation issue and not a Advanced Pack issue. I tend to agree. At the moment in order to 'search' on the attributes for the pack product I have to 'add again' the attributes in the pack product. This is a duplication of effort and data, which is undesirable. Please see the following urls. Product with attributes and search options... http://onebell.preview4.co.uk/5-phones Pack which contains above product (and attributes) but has no search options... http://onebell.preview4.co.uk/18-d Any help greatly appreciated. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daztheblue Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 I suppose what I'm asking is "How do I copy attributes programmatically without having to add them again in a newly generated product?" You would think if an attribute is on a product and the product is copied into a new category (to make a pack for example) the attribute would STILL be available in the layered navigation as a filter when looking at the new category. This doesn't appear to be the case. Many thanks for any advice to help me move forward on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[PrestaModule] JS Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Hi, We are the creators of the module advancedPack4. We can consider an update of the module to automate the addition of attributes. We will set the development in the current week. Coming back to you as soon as we finished.

daztheblue Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 Could this update also include the automated duplication of features? Best regards Darren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[PrestaModule] JS Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Hi daztheblue, It is difficult to integrate automatically the features because Prestashop does not support multiple values on a single product feature. We will do our best Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daztheblue Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 Just like to add Prestamodules support on this was excellent. Within the week their team had added the extra functionality I'd suggested and updated the module. Great stuff! Highly recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
