[Solved} Blockcart JSON retaining old values

[yesdev]

I'm having a fairly unique issue with the cart logic at the moment.

 

I've added in a couple of extra variables to be passed from the product page to the cart. When a customer adds in a second variant of the same product into the cart it's retaining the old values & duplicating when it should be seen as a separate product attribute variant

 

I've tried a JQuery form reset of the product page and the blockcart-json.tpl file is still reporting the earlier values.

 

e.g. Customer enters a value of 1200 for one variant of product. Adds to cart fine.

Customer then enters a value of 925 for 2nd variant of same product. Instead of it being seen as a separate variant, it ends up being seen as a duplicate of 1st product added.

 

Any ideas on how to fix this? - NVM fixed it

How did you fix this?

 

Running into a similar issue.

 

in the future - please post how you fix things instead of just 'nvm fixed it', so other developers will be able to learn as well.

We ended up creating a few more variables to place inside the cart_product table that helped differentiate between product variants. Pretty bespoke code & refactoring as well.
