Hi

I've run into a bit of a problem. I can only get ALL variants to show, even though, i've deactivated some of them in the backend. Not all products will have the same variant options.

  
      <!--@LoopStart(VariantGroups)-->
      <select id="SelectVariantId" onchange="SetVariantOption(this)" class="form-control">
        <option selected="selected">V&aelig;lg Størrelse</option>
        <!--@LoopStart(VariantOptions)-->      
        <option value="<!--@Ecom:VariantOption.VariantID-->"><!--@Ecom:VariantOption.Name--></option>    
        <!--@LoopEnd(VariantOptions)-->
      </select>    
      <!--@LoopEnd(VariantGroups)-->

Hi

I think you are looking for the VariantAvailableOptions sub loop

<!--@LoopStart(VariantGroups)-->
<select id="SelectVariantId" onchange="SetVariantOption(this)" class="form-control">
  <option selected="selected">V&aelig;lg Størrelse</option>
  <!--@LoopStart(VariantAvailableOptions)-->    
  <option value="<!--@Ecom:VariantOption.VariantID-->"><!--@Ecom:VariantOption.Name--></option>   
  <!--@LoopEnd(VariantAvailableOptions)-->
</select>   
<!--@LoopEnd(VariantGroups)-->

I'm using the VariantAvailableOptions loop and I've got "Show only active variants" set in the management center. But somehow, a deactivated variant still shows up.

Any suggestions?

Hi Martin

You have to ellaborate. How did you set the variant to deactivated? Can you provide a screen dump?

Of course - I select the product in quesion, and from the product-ribbon I click 'Variants'. Then edit a specific variant combination and mark it as 'Never active'.

Hi all,

Dennis,

Please, use VariantCombinations loop instead. This loop allows to handle product variant rendering via "Show only active variants" setting. Refer to http://templates.dynamicweb.com/eCommerce/Dynamicweb-eCommerce-template-tags/Product-Catalog/Product-detail/Loops/VariantCombinations.aspx to find out tags available within the loop.

BR, Oleg QA

Hi Oleg,

thanks for the reply (also thanks to Nicolai) - The loop seems to produce exactly what I need in terms of active variants when I place a DwTemplateTags tag in it. However, it doesn't show up in the rendering. Instead it just outputs the following:

<!--@LoopOutput(VariantCombinations1)-->

Here's my code:

  <!--@LoopStart(VariantGroups)-->
    <div>
        <div><!--@Ecom:VariantGroup.Name--></div>
          <select class="sys-variant-select">
            <option value="0" selected>Select <!--@Ecom:VariantGroup.Name--></option>

            <!--@LoopStart(VariantCombinations)-->
              <!--@DwTemplateTags-->
                  <option value="<!--@Ecom:VariantCombination.VariantID-->"> <!--@Ecom:VariantCombination.VariantText--></option>
            <!--@LoopEnd(VariantCombinations)-->
          </select>
    </div>
  <!--@LoopEnd(VariantGroups)-->

Hi Martin

You have the VariantCombinations inside the VariantGroups loop. That is not possible. It has to be in 2 different loops at the same level.
