Resolved Multivariants -No orderable parent- Import Issue

Hello Chris,

If i create the fields manually it is ok. I'm trying to find out more abt this!

The empty entry comes from the parent product having no value in the COM_VIRTUEMART_CF_EDITION field. I will have to do some more checking/testing/shaving and will get back to you on this.

Great Roland, thanks, looking forward.

Rgrds,

Hello Chris,

So I have done my tweaking Attached is the patch file that should fix the empty entry for the parent.

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks Roland,

Just tested, and we are almost there i think

I noted that the blank space is not there anymore. However, if you go to the parent product, you don't see the 'Select' option in the dropdown, but you get a preselection of the first child product which is not correct. No child product should be preselected, but a 'Select' option should be shown.

Wrong Display (CVSI Import) :

Correct Display (Manual Creation OR CSVI+Save):

Pls notice that after CSVI import you can correct the display of the product by clicking SAVE in the product edit screen of VM3. It seems that VM3 is correcting/saving smth in the database which corrects the display

Hello Chris,

Actually I had the empty entry in the dropdown show up as Please select but that may be because I am using the fancy dropdown. I figured it wouldn't be nice, so I removed it alltogether

I have updated the code and now get the Please select in the empty dropdown as expected. Made some more cosmetic code changes.

Please give the attached patch file a try and let me know.

Thanks Roland, it is perfect now!

Rgrds,
Chris

@Atrus

This is exactly what I want to test at the moment.
Do you have a sample CSV file of how have imported your products that I could take a peek at?

I have already imported 100's of parent/child products and now want to use CSVi to set all the multi variants up, where all my parents are not orderable,

Thanks
Andy

Hey Andy,
