Connection between Pack and products (items)


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have one item (product) in my shop which is Pack of three other items (products) which are for sale in my shop as well. But the Pack and items do not have any connections. When the Pack is sold, amount of each item does not change, and vice versa. I need manually change amounts of this items.

Please, help me to find some solution to automatize this process. I use Version 1.2.0.5.

I've needed this functionality as well so I've been poking around in the core code and it looks like whenever a product that has "pack" items is added to the cart, there needs to be additional code written to check if the product is a pack and if so add each pack item to the cart as well. that way, your quantities and other order data will be updated for those items as well in the backoffice.

The other problem i see with the pack feature is the product attributes for the pack items...how does a customer choose which he/she is getting? Example, if you add the iPod Nano to the MacBook as a pack item, which color of Nano is the customer going to get??

While a useful feature, this could get out of hand real quick and cause a lot of problems unless it's done very carefully.
