Showing multiple variation names i Cart

Hi,

When adding 'multidimensional' variations of products (eg. color and size). Ecom:Product.VariantID.Extented and Ecom:Order:OrderLine.ProductVariantID returns a combined ID of the chosen product "V01,V94", but what i really want is to show the names of the variations they represent (eg. Small and Black). (Ecom:Order:OrderLine.ProductVariantText returns "")

 

Is it possible to split the combined ID, and lookup the names of varitions? or is there an easier way to solve the problem?

 

- Michael

Hi Michael

You should have the variant loops available in the template:

http://templates.dynamicweb-cms.com/eCommerce/Dynamicweb-eCommerce-template-tags/Product-Catalog/Product-detail/Loops/VariantCombinations.aspx

http://templates.dynamicweb-cms.com/eCommerce/Dynamicweb-eCommerce-template-tags/Product-Catalog/Product-detail/Loops/VariantGroups/Loops/VariantOptions.aspx

The tag you have is the one from the product record it self.

Hi Nicolai,

 

I tried something like this:

<!--@LoopStart(VariantGroups)-->
<!--@LoopStart(VariantOptions)-->
    <!--@If(Ecom:Order:OrderLine.ProductVariantID<contains>Ecom:VariantOption.ID)-->
    <div>
        <span class="variation"><!--@Ecom:VariantGroup.Name-->:</span> 
        <!--@Ecom:VariantOption.Name-->
    </div>
    <!--@EndIf-->
<!--@LoopEnd(VariantOptions)-->
<!--@LoopEnd(VariantGroups)-->

 

But the if-statement returns false, even if i try:

<!--@If(Ecom:Order:OrderLine.ProductVariantID="VO1")-->

Hi Michael

 

Ecom:Order:OrderLine.ProductVariantID comes from outside the loop and Ecom:VariantOption.ID inside. Therefore you cannot use them together in a conditional.

You can try this though: <!--@If(Parent(Ecom:Order:OrderLine.ProductVariantID)<contains>Ecom:VariantOption.ID)-->

It might work - otherwise I think you have to convert to Razor to get full scripting capabilities.
