OK, I found it. In \modules\Product_Options\func.php

PHP Code:

if ($kv == func_get_variantid($v['options'], $productid)) 
    $variants[$kv]['avail'] -= $v['amount']; 


replaced with

PHP Code:

if ($kv == func_get_variantid($v['options'], $productid)) {
    $variants[$kv]['avail'] -= $v['amount'];
    if ($variants[$kv]['avail'] <= 0)
      $variants[$kv]['avail'] = 1;
} 


It works well for products that current customer put into cart.

If I read this mod correctly, your buyer will be able to add indefinitely the same item to his/her cart even if you only have 1 left in your stock. I think you need something more complex than that. Probably controlling the the amount of item showed and not changing the available quantity. I am sorry that I can not give you more precise code. Programming logic is one thing and doing the programming is another...

cart.php checks for the real amount in stock, you can't add more than you have.

Stizerg,

I tried this mod and it doesn't seem to have made any difference.
Am I right in saying that the idea here is that if you for example have a product with 1 left in stock and then a customer adds it to their cart it still shows as available instead of sold out to them?
I realise it still shows as in stock to others, which to me seems a bit odd but I can understand the logic to some extend.

I would really like this as I don't want customers to think they've just missed out or something, not realising that with it being in their cart means it is somewhat 'reserved' for them.

I've got 4.3.2 and I simply copied and pasted the code and uploaded.
I'm pretty new to editing x-cart and although I'm a IT tech I'm not really a web developer so I may have missed something.


Thanks
