Ahoj,

co máš přesně na mysli s chybějícím "vybrat"?

[mjmartino]

Look a screen
If Attributes setup Required filed on NO when on site show "Vybrat"
If Attributes setup Required filed on YES when on site does show "Vybrat" only the first item / attribute
If someone places an order, they have a suggested one by default, and they should decide what to choose.,

Hi, not sure if I correctly understand, but maybe this is related to this change in version 3.5.1:

Code: Select all

Added option to hide default product variant when attributes are required (Advanced stock management)

https://www.phoca.cz/news/1079-phoca-ca ... 1-released

Not sure if do you use Advanced stock management but if so, the "select" (vybrat) was removed because it is wrong logically, example:

T-Shirt (sold in variants)

T-Shirt A has options Color and Size

So there can be:
- T-Shirt A, Color Red, Size XXL
- T-Shirt A, Color Blue, Size XL

but there cannot be T-Shirt as default (without color and without any size). So it is assumed when there are required options, it is not possible to select "default" as such option does not exist. So the "default" was removed based on user's feedback.

The "default" value itself is not a problem, the problem are AJAX functions which change price, stock or EAN/SKU. With default selected they display wrong value for stock, price or EAN/SKU, so this is why this option was removed. (In fact they display values for not existing products or product variations)

It can be enabled if needed per Joomla! template override feature of this layout file:
components\com_phocacart\layouts\attribute_options_select.php

line cca 33

hmm
I don't want "default" value. I want the user to select the required variant. Now in front end not show "SELECT" but first attribute. This is a problem.
Example:
product T-Shirt : attibute color: white, black (required) in frontend item show T-Shrit: attribute color:white. and should show select (white,black)

Hi, as written above, when there is value "select" which has null value, the ajax then displays wrong information for stock or price, this is why it was removed. To add it back, the override needs to be done. But if done, the ajax can then display wrong information - information for product which in fact does not exist.

override

Code: Select all

/html/com_phocacart/layouts/attribute_options_select.php

I change != 0
Noting happened.
In original path file if I change the change is taking place.
But that's still not what it was.Now is opposite.

How in new version configure product with attribute, and req attribute* which will always have the "select" field? I looked through the documentation again but found nothing helpful.

It turns out that since version 3.5.1 it is not possible or I am missing something.

Hi,

did you test if your override is active, e.g. with some debug information?

Did you see this guide:
https://www.phoca.cz/documents/116-phoc ... -overrides

The path should be:
templates/your_default_template/html/layouts/com_phocacart/

Sorry my mistake now override work.
But still this is now solution for me.

You ask me earlyer if I use Advanced stock management - answer is NO. (main product)
