Hey guys,

I'm a bit confused. I am trying to figure out why I don't see my product options next to my slave products on the product_info.php page. I believe the issue is in the includes/modules/master_listing.php file, but I can't seem to figure out what the issue is. I do have a print command that is showing me everything for each slave except for the options

Here's a link showing the results of what I am using. Ignore spacing, as this is NOT normally a slave or an item with options, but the code was broken on my test site, so had to use one of our new production sites.

http://www.pawprintsink.com/bumper-stickers-p-413.html

If the seo link drops, just use pawprintsink dot com.
I am using a slightly modified includes/modules/master_listing.php. Nowhere near as modified as so much of yours is, but below is my file, you can see it working at the above link, at least until Wed. night, at which time I must restore this product back to the original status.

HTH

George

Has anybody ever managed to get the Master Product and one or multiple slave products into the shopping cart. I need to be able to do this. Any ideas would really be appreciated.


Thanks..

[TracyS]

I have a bit of a code on that page to print out what $listing is getting for an array - usually it is commented out but during testing it can be handy - it's just:

  echo '<pre>';
print_r($listing);
echo '</pre>';

Right now it's telling me that I'm not pulling the options information for each of the products in the array - everything else is getting pulled, but not the options.

Hey, Tracy what did you do to get all this displaying on the page????

I think I solved the problem with attributes awhile back, but checked my customers and none are using M/S with options. I'll set up a couple of products on my test site and see what happens. I know I at least had 1 attribute available, not sure about an array of attributes.

Thanks George,

I see it working on your site, but for some reason it doesn't work for mine
I'm wondering if it might have to do with my includes/modules/sts_inc/product_info.php file maybe?
Are you using STS? If so, does your sts_inc/product_info.php file options code look like this:

Here's a link showing the results of what I am using. Ignore spacing, as this is NOT normally a slave or an item with options, but the code was broken on my test site, so had to use one of our new production sites.

http://www.pawprintsink.com/bumper-stickers-p-413.html

If the seo link drops, just use pawprintsink dot com.
I am using a slightly modified includes/modules/master_listing.php. Nowhere near as modified as so much of yours is, but below is my file, you can see it working at the above link, at least until Wed. night, at which time I must restore this product back to the original status.

Thanks George,

I see it working on your site, but for some reason it doesn't work for mine
I'm wondering if it might have to do with my includes/modules/sts_inc/product_info.php file maybe?
Are you using STS? If so, does your sts_inc/product_info.php file options code look like this:

No, I have it installed, but not using it. I use a simple® template setup. Basically a default setup with if file_exists() calls for custom headers, footers, left/right column, etc. with a lot of css changes. Also, since we are doing so much with custom product displays, a lot of ajax-java and dhtml changes in product_info.php.

I put the code you posted in my editor. Will get back tomorrow if I see anything that might help. While you are looking for a solution, check the calls to includes/modules/master_products.php and it's call to includes/modules/master_listing.php to be sure you have the attributes properly defined and included in the arrays you pass to these functions, keeping in mind that attributes will probably be an array itself, so your calls in the sts templates must be able to build an array of arrays so the needed variables are available to the master_... modules.

Found the problem, I had forgotten the

								  'MASTER_LIST_OPTIONS' => MASTER_LIST_OPTIONS,

at the beginning of master_products.php

Now I have an error coming from the Xsell contribution in xsell_cart.php due to this query:

$xsell_master_query = tep_db_query("SELECT products_master FROM " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " WHERE products_id = " . $product_id_in_cart['id'] . "");
	$xsell_master = tep_db_fetch_array($xsell_master_query);

It is causing errors trying to locate the products id.
Error is:
1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '{4}29' at line 1

SELECT products_master FROM products WHERE products_id = 128{4}29

Any thoughts on how to better write this query?

Did you figure this out yet? This was an add-on you did for M/S. I assume you did it in modules/master_listing.php. Can you post the code here or PM the file to me to look at?

George

[TracyS]

The query change was done in xsell_cart.php for the Xsell contribution (Cross Sell Products). It is called in the shopping_cart.php page and was causing the error. This didn't need any changes in master_products.php or master_listing.php.

I ended up changing from having "Buy Now" to having a quantity box and "Add to Cart" so that I could have options added to the cart from my highly modified category pages. I couldn't figure out how to get the "Buy Now" to add the options. I have very modified category and subcategory pages. Top category pages show the top 10 products in that category, and their slaves, and allow you to purchase right from that page. Subcategory pages show all the products in their subcategory, and their slaves, and allow you to purchase from that page. Both category and subcategory pages allow you to click to the product_info.php page for more detailed info on a product as well.

Which file would you like to see? I'm happy to post or PM it, as long as I know which one you want

I thought you had a buy-now button on each item in the slave list. Guess I was wrong on that. That is one thing we have seen requests for in this 104 page posting over and over again.

Wow that seems to be a complicated mod...

I read alot of pages of that thread ... i was wondering one thing

I sell physical cds and want to offer the same cd in download.... or one track at a time.

Is this THE contrib i should use in order to do this ? Do someone here have an example of a digital store using that contrib.

thanks alot !

I don't know if it is THE mod you should use. There's more than one way to skin a cat. :-)

1st step would be to install a download manager contribution if you have not already done so. I have used this one for some customers.

then, give Master/Slave a try. If you are very careful with the installation instructions, and are not trying to install it on the latest osCommerce release, it should work. Remember that this contribution was written for the ms2.2 release, not the RC's. If you have a server with PHP5 and/or mySQL 5, you will need to do database call modifications.

i got the rc version.

so i forget about that contribution ?

I do have buy now on slaves on my live shop - but it will be changing to Add to Cart so the option gets added as well without having to first view the product page to choose an option.

Hi, Tracy

This is a standard setup for a product list with buy-now buttons. it simply picks up the product ID and price, then tests in application top to see if there are attributes.

When you use the bottom add-to-cart, your action is different so the case 'buy-now' doesn't get called. However, I suspect one could quickly get into some spaghetti code to add attributes to the inline buy-now.

My keyboard is getting a lot of rf interference today from somewhere, causing tons of missed characters. I think I caught them all.

hi, is there a way to add this module to the shopping_cart.php page instead of product_info.php ? i mean, when you are already to buy a product it should appear other options to add, anyone knows how to do it?

[s1lverf0x]

Hi,
I am selling kits which include 30 products, I am also selling the products that go into the kits - individually. If I sell a kit I want the stock levels of each individual product in the kit to decrement by 1.

I installed MS2 v1.1.5 on my STS458 site - and set the kit up as a Master & each product that goes into the kit as a Slave - but when I do a test buy - only the kit (the master) stock quantity goes down by 1 - not the slave products.

Am I missing something? If I sell a master - isn't the Slave stock level also supposed to go down by 1?

I suspect it may be because all my slaves appear under my master on the product_info & when I'm buying the master (which contains all the slaves) - I've left the quantities in the slave drop-downs at zero. I dont' even want the slaves to appear under the master on the product_info as the Master (kit) already contains all the slave products.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm meant to be going live this weekend & jut had the stock linking to sort out.

Thanks in advance

I suspect it may be because all my slaves appear under my master on the product_info & when I'm buying the master (which contains all the slaves) - I've left the quantities in the slave drop-downs at zero. I dont' even want the slaves to appear under the master on the product_info as the Master (kit) already contains all the slave products.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm meant to be going live this weekend & jut had the stock linking to sort out.

Thanks in advance

The problem I see is that you have a conflict of purpose here. The Master product is used to round up all the (in your case) kit items to display in a logical manor. The Master Product is probably a misnomer, since it cannot be sold, only the items under it can be sold without some extensive re-coding. Therefore, no pricing or quantity should be assigned to the Master. As you found, when you price or have quantity on the master, strange things happen.

You can set the purchase quantity of each slave item to total the correct number needed for your Kit. You can offer a discount via a coupon or dangling carrot contribution if all items are purchased as a group.

The other alternative is to actually use a "kit" builder, but I can find no specific contribution. One might be able to adapt something like the Custom PC Creater (contib. 1487). edit.. newer contrib 3282

Maybe I'm missing it, but when I hit add to cart with the quantity of each slave it correctly adds the slave but also adds the master! I don't want it to add the master!!!

i got the rc version.

so i forget about that contribution ?

I'm curious about this too. This looks like a useful contribution, but not if it won't work on 2.2 RC2a. Will it work? Or what do we need to watch for to make it work?

Thanks!
