Hello!

I have a problem with the cart's layout when I use stockable child products.

Attached there are two screenshots.

Image1 shows the cart layout when I'm in the product details page of a product with stockable child variant.
The amount selection looks different, the delivery time infos are not visible and the cart doesn't look like it is for single products.

In Image2 you see a screenshot of how it is for a single product without stockable variant.

What can I do to make the cart look in both types of products like it was before? So like Image 2...

Thanks in advance!

Hi John,

I just sent you an email.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Christos, what ever you have experienced are normal. Nothing is wrong with it.

I understand that, it is not good to have different layouts for different product (with/without Custom Field, Stockable Variants).
But it had to be that way.

Let me explain why;

When there is no Custom Field, Stockable Variants (which is the 2nd screenshot). Everything is cool and the CSS3 add to cart button visible. But when Custom Field, Stockable Variants gets involved, we had to get back to default layout that comes with the Virtuemart. (which is the 1st screenshot). If we didn't get back to original add to cart design, then things wouldn't work correctly. Because depends on the selected variable, the add to cart button transforms to "notify" button dynamically. In order to keep this dynamic "transforming", we needed to get back to original add to cart button layout.

It is also same in our DEMO.
Look at these products:

No Custom Field, Stockable Variants, only includes "product variant" and everything is cool:
www.flexiblewebdesign.com/virtuemart-2-template-puremart/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=5&Itemid=477

Custom Field, Stockable Variants gets involved, the CSS3 add to cart button (which is the moving button) disappears instead the default "add to cart" button stylization shows off.
www.flexiblewebdesign.com/virtuemart-2-template-puremart/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=46&virtuemart_category_id=6

includes "Generic child variant" and everything is cool again:
www.flexiblewebdesign.com/virtuemart-2-template-puremart/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=50&virtuemart_category_id=6

So you need to use "Generic child variant" instead of Custom Field, Stockable Variants to keep the same layout in every product. Generic Child Variants are capable to keep "stocking".

Regards.

Hi and thanks for your detailed answer.
I tried it now this way and it seems that everything works fine.
Seems that it is the best solution for my problem.

Thanks a lot!
