New in v3.3.0: New product option features

[rhagberg]

Jamie, I really like the idea of the multiple selections. Is it possible to use them in the following scenario?

We sell an album with 25 pages included. The customer can choose from several page styles via option choices -- they can pick all 25 of one option choice, or mix-and-match multiple option choices for a total of 25.

I see how you can have the customer input a quantity for each option choice. But, can they be forced to choose a specific grand total (25 in this case), no more, no less?

Thanks,

Hi Rick,

Yes, you can do that. Setup your option record like this:

Thanks, Jamie, that's exactly what I was looking for.

It would be nice to be able to use the Limit Quantities feature with the "select" field format (dropdown), not just with the "text" field format (manual text entry).

Also, is it possible to reduce the width of the text field? In our case we only need space for a two character input by the customer.

Thanks,

Yes, you can change the width of that field by adding the necessary CSS to your style_main.css.php stylesheet file. The class name for the field is going to be either opt_multi_check or opt_qty_field depending on how the option is setup. You can view the source of the page to determine what class is being used.
