if/then statement question for products.tpl
 

Hello,

In the products.tpl template I want to exclude any product from showing the buy now button when there are options for that product.

What would be the if/then statement to use?





Also, I tried to exclude certain categories from showing the buy now button in the products.tpl but could not get it to work as I read in other posts.

This is the code example that was given:

This is the code I tried on a 4.0.18 version and it does not work:

I would appreciate any help on these two issues. Thanks alot

For hiding the buy now button for products with options, use this:

{if $product.is_product_options eq 'N'}

That if statement for the buy now button should be fine...

Code
 

When debugging and looking for the variables, I was close with:


but I could not figure out the first part. Going by example I was coming up with $products[product].is_product_options. Sometimes it looks like its product and sometimes its products??

Can you explain this statement?

I understand the is_product_options is pulled from the database...but how do you determine the first part of that code?

Thanks,

Louise

Can't explain it , just pulled it from the buy now template :)

FYI if your product has options the buy now button on the products page will take you to the product page. It will not take you to the cart.

I assume that this is done so the person will have to see the option selection pull down menu.

You can disable this:

In "general settings: appearance options"


The default (first) option is then selected.

You know, I totally overlooked that option.

Some days you can't see the sky for the clouds (the ones in my head). :oops: :lol:

Thanks,

I don't see that option in my admin end. I'm running 4.1.8. Any Ideas?
