Change the default attribute (combination) when out of stock

[presdeco]

Hi

 

Is there any module that will autmotically change the default combination(attribute) when it comes out of stock (or quantity is 0)?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Yes same here. If the default attribute of a product is out of stock but there are other attributes with stock then the product listing page shows out of stock. This is quite annoying because people will not click on a product that show there is no stock.

 

For example: t-shirt in sizes S M L XL XXL,

S is the default attribute and stock is 0

All other sizes have stock

Product listing page shows "out of stock"

 

Any help is appreciated ;-)

 

Thanks

Ben

I also desperately need this addressed. It is still there in 1.5

Is there a way to do this in 1.5?

Since this is a feature that should have been implemented in the PS core functionalities and for over 2 years NO solutions were given except 2 paid modules, I am going to SPAM all the threads that address this matter.
I am sorry but it doesn't seem fair at all that such an important base feature is made available via paid module when it should have been rolled out in a PS update long time ago   
 

I've seen so many PS stores losing customers because they see an Out of Stock message on a product that actually HAS stock on other combinations. It's already beyond ridiculous, this silence of the PS staff.
 

This a call of desperation to the PS staff, of a lot of PS users, not just mine.

Let the solution reveal itself at last!

I tried writing scripts to change default_on but no hope with that

I found the easiest solution by just changing minimum quantity to 1

copy

public static function getDefaultAttribute($id_product, $minimum_quantity = 1, $reset = false)

into override/classes/Product.php

I hope this may help
