Product option reset

General General Questions

Hi



Is there a way to reset the product options on a product page.



With a product that has multiple options the customer has to reset them in reverse order to be able to change the very first option.



Normal form reset button doesn't work due to the way forms are handled.



Any help is greatly appreciated.



Cheers

Which version are you on? The behaviour you describe is not the case for version 2.2.4+ and 3.0.1+.

Reset button, can you explain more, I am guessing you are using sequential options

Hi All



Sorry for the delay in responding. I am on v3.0.4



I have added a reset button to the default-template and it works a treat.

You must be using Sequential Options.



On the Edit Product page, there is an option to set the Options Type: Simultaneous or Sequential. I would assume yours is set to Sequential, so change the options type to Simultaneous and see if you still have the problem.

I Like it…good idea. Is there much involved in that. I m sure other users who use sequential options could use that

I spoke to soon. It doesn't reset the option until the 3rd option in this case is reset. Needs a little tweak in order to precess the ajax.



Not a great deal in it no. I'll post the code once I've figured it out.

Your sequential options behave differently than ours. Take a look at http://www.homeschooldiploma.com/csc3/personalized-diploma-with-deluxe-cover.html



Our first option always has all selections available. Options below never impact options above. Options above can only impact options below.



Weird.

Wow Triplets that is weird. That would work perfect if I could establish how its done.

Hmm found it. The options in each product are set to simultaneous and not sequential.



Is there any significance in changing it? is it likely to mess anything up?

No effect other than it 'unlocks' options, so you can allow customers to select the options in any order they wish. Forbidden combinations and combinations which effect prices will still be calculated and displayed accordingly.
