independent atribute prestashop


Recommended Posts

Hi - I need to make customizable product.

Many of atributes are there without price or weight change.

 

If I put all atributes together , Presta create over 4 000 combination and the product can't be viewed in FO and BO.

 

If I would put all atributes which don't change price or weight - one by one , and I create combinations for few atributes which change price - is there option to turn off checking combination of this first listed atributes which don't change anything to price or weight ?

 

( sorry for my English ).

You should look at this module,

http://www.presto-changeo.com/en/attribute-modules/34-attribute-wizard-pro.html

 

Attribute Wizard Pro makes the combinations differently than the way Prestashop does it. You will not end up with thousands of all possible combinations written in advance with a resulting large file. It takes only the necessary information and makes the combinations on the fly as needed. Much smaller foot print. Plus it will give you more options for your attribute display.

There is no quick fix for this issue.

Creating more than 1,000 - 3,000 combinations will give you out of memory errors.

 

You can either reduce the number of combinations, or look into using Attribute Wizard Pro as Bill suggested.

But if I can pay for this - is there anybodywho can change few files to make one group of attributes independant - I mean If I would chose this group to product , I can put attributes without combination and Presta wouldn't care that there isn't combination with this group ?

 

I can send money throw PayPal .

 

Thanks

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

 

The module comes with a front + backend demo, so you can try to create the product as you want and see if it works as you need.

 

It handles combinations differently, so make sure you enter the configuration page of the module and read the instructions.

Ok I think I would buy the module but please make me sure of some cases :

 

Atributes are also adding in product page like without module and there isn't big changes in product.tpl page ?

 

If I have already added some attributes , when I would install modull - would they be avaible , or everything need to be added one more time ?

 

I can have for example 20 000 combination for each product ? ( I have around 8 000 combinationa and I need to put 20pcs quantity on each one ).

Please do not buy the module until you have tried the demo.

Also, make sure to read the FAQ tab in the product description (in http://www.presto-changeo.com/en/attribute-modules/34-attribute-wizard-pro.html )

 

1) The module hooks to the product page and has it's own display of the attributes, it will hide the existing attribute selection.

 

2) You can use the attribute groups and values, but all combinations will need to be generated again using the format the module requires.

 

3) No, you cannot create so many combinations, but you do not need to either, the module uses far less combinations, read the FAQ tab to see exactly how they are different.

moderk, I do not make Attribute Wizard Pro. I'm only recommending it to you to help you.

 

The module can be used only on the products you want to use it for. All other products can continue to use the default system. So, if you are happy with the way most of your products currently work, you do not need to change them, just leave them as they are. For products that require Attribute Wizard Pro you will need to setup their combinations the Attribute Wizard Pro way.

 

Attribute Wizard Pro requires changes to several core files. If you need help to install, installation help is included in the price of the module no extra charge.

 

Hope this helps.

I understand but I combined actuall attributes with required text fields :

You can see :

 

http://wnetrzagoralczyk.pl/product.php?id_product=29

 

When You put appropriate value in text fileds, hidden attributes fields would change and price would be updated.

Also You can chose material .

 

Here :

 

http://wnetrzagoralczyk.pl/product.php?id_product=27

 

I added 2 attributes more , and I can add them without combination ( You can't put item to product ) , because if I would make combination with them - there would be over 8000 of them :)

 

I need to think yet about it how to solve it.

 

If there wouldn't be problem to change some select list from AWP by editing required text fields , I think I can use it.

 

Thanks for help.

modrek: AWP does not work with the Prestashop customization fields, it has a better built in option.

 

You can display attributes as textbox, text area or file upload, and since they are attributes, you can assign a price impact to them (as well as display them with the rest of the attributes, and not require a "Save" button).
