Product Tags for 4.x.x branches?
 
Howdy all?

Are there any good pre-existing mods out there for product tags? I understanding having lots of categories and that products can be filtered that way - but I'm looking to also be able to assign a host of tags to a product (everything from colors to materials, etc) that will allow customers to click and view all products with those attributes.

Probably straightforward to code, but before I dove in I thought I'd look and see what's already out there.

Thanks!

Altered Cart's shop by filters is a decent base.. can be modified to filter based on whatever if you are good at php. seems to support 'extra fields' out of the gate too

for example, I made a gender filter.
added a column to the variants table
wrote a script that runs periodically to assign variants a gender, populating the variants table (based on if the item is in a sub cat under men's or women's or you can do it by a keyword in the title or keywords field for unisex items.
the filter will then look at the variants table and will only show products in stock if that variant has avail>0 and matches the gender being filtered on.. nice and quick.

thanks! :)

I don't own that and not sure I can even purchase it now. sounds like it would indeed be a good base to start, though.

Does this mod allow you to specifically assign filters to products in the back end? seems to me that it'd have to allow you to do that, somehow?
