Options dependencies?

Post by millennium3 » Wed Mar 03, 2010 10:54 am

Is there a way to set dependencies on options? Say someone chooses:
- size option: "5x7 full print" (instead of 5x7 - 3x5 image for matting)
- mat option: Tan
- frame option: Oak
This shouldn't be allowed because no mat is needed (or 10x8 should be selected)

Thanks!

Its possible. Create options for the product and then go to manage variant screen. Simply mark the combination unavailable that are not compatible. Now visit product details page and you will see that when you select first option rest will show only the ones that could live with first one.

Thanks Mazhar! AbleCommerce is looking better and better.

Instead of not available options not showing up, I am allowed to choose, but get the following message in check out

"...is no longer available. It has been removed from the basket".
