Hi Everyone,

I have this array:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [productid] => 16141
            [amount] => 1
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [productid] => 129
            [amount] => 1
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [productid] => 16141
            [amount] => 1
        )

)

I was wondering if there was a function that would take the values of the array and add up the amounts or identical productids so that the result would look something like this:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [productid] => 16141
            [amount] => 2
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [productid] => 129
            [amount] => 1
        )


)

I looked on php.net, but either I am missing it or it doesn't exist. Hopefully someone knows how to do this.

Thanks

Hi,

If you look within cart.php there is already a function there that does this kind of thing.

I guess you are looking to do an add multiple products to cart or something.

If you are it is easier to add all the products/amounts to the array that you are referring to then loop through the cart.php for each element of the array - this will sort the add multiple products side for you plus look at the product options elements aswell.

FD,

Actually I am making a module that compares what you have in your cart to what people have bought in the past and then recommends products you should consider. I am thinking that I'll put it on the cart.php page and the individual products page.

Thanks for the tip
