klopotnik Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Hi, i'm new to prestasthop and I'm not sure, if prestashop is capable of what I need. i want to create eshop with alloy wheels and i got into this issue: there is: 10 brand of wheels every brand has ~15 models of wheels every model has ~2 colours every model has ~4 diameters every diameter has ~2 width every combination of diameter x width has ~6 combinations of P.D.C. (holes for screws) every this combination can have ~2 combinations of offset that makes ~ 30.000 combinations on the other hand, there is ~25 car brands every car brand has ~10 models of cars every model of car has ~3 versions of that model (followers in time) that makes another ~1.000 combinations every this certain version has exact possibilities of combination from wheels which does fit the car. I have all wheel data and car fittment data. but what I need is: to be able to select specific car in some combo-box filter and display all possible wheels for such car and afterwards in such results to be able to filter the rest off wheels attributes (like diameter / width / offest / colour) i need it flexible.. that means to add new wheels into products and cars into fitting database after i finish this task, i'd like to add tyres to this shop and to be able to associate tires with wheels and cars as well. can prestashop handle this problem? what is the best way to do it? thank you! klopotnik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Well, I think you are talking about product combinations. If you setuo combinations that way, in the product page of a specific car you can select all the needed attributes with dropdown menus/radio/color boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klopotnik Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Hi Nemo! If I got it right.. 1) I just create search module, where - customer makes a selection of car, - according this selection a search will be executed - script takes a look into vehicle database and downloads all possible combination for such vehicle - search for all wheels (products) whose meet possible combinations - give me a resultest and now i have again filters like diameter / width / offset / color which would apply for this resultset? 2) what about the load? one vehicle can have about 15 possible combination of wheel parameters if you search this 15 combination within 30.000 wheels combinations.. that makes almost 500.000 checks.. just for one search and in this case I don't count with tyres yet thanks for answer!

NemoPS Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 uh...no, I meant prestashop already does it in the product page If you need a module like this, you can check my signature for my addons store, I have one with a similar functionality there (attribute step search), though you can't select the car in the first place, as it's a product Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klopotnik Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I've checked your modules.. maybe I can use one of them but, if you recheck my previous post.. how would you solve my problem? how to simply find products (wheels) that fit selected vehicle? and in the result to be able for next filtering? what can I use from presta features and what is needed to be done with some modules / extra development? thanks Nemo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 If you already selected a vehicle, prestashop only adds combinations for that product in the product page. the problem is, there is no actual attribute filter and all of them are selectable in the dropdowns. You might try attribute wizard pro to hide unavailable combinations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
