Customizing the Kit/Bundle page
Posted: Mon Jul 12, 2010 9:21 pm
Hi,
I need assistance with setting up a Kit/Bundle page. I have a Base product that i can customize with 4 parts that can each be added to the whole. I want to be able to have an image available on top of each of the dropdown menus I am creating. This way a customer can look at the first option, say I am creating a person, and the 1st choice of dropdowns would be different types of heads. I would need an image of a selection of heads they can view and choose the one they like in the dropdown(by name/number under each of the different head images). Below the "head" dropdown will be the next choice, say hands. I would need the image of a selection of hands they can pick from, they can click on the dropdown below it, and choose the hand they like in the picture. Then there would the next, say bodies, again alternating the image of the "bodies" available(with name/number), then in the dropdown they can select the item, then the 4th image, followed by the dropdown of the items shown in the picture. This way the page will show Head images, dropdown for the head products, the hands images, followed by its dropdown, the bodies image followed by its dropdown, and finally the last image followed by its dropdown. Without this possibility, The only other option I would have would be one large image of all the 4 types on top, and the dropdowns below, which would look both sloppy and confusing. Can this be done by manipulating the page? I have not yet tried editing a dynamic product page.
The last thing, and also very important, is building a number using each item they pick. If they chose head #234, hand #58B, body #28Y, and foot #459, I would need it to be added into the cart using the number as such: 234-58B-28Y-459. Right now, it only uses the Base products number I set up with the original product. Is it possible to replace the base number with the one created by the kit?
Thanks for bearing with me on this!!
