Hi, here are a few questions I have while testing the Box Builder app;

  1. Why the limitation of 12?
    This shops sells boxes up to 30 chocolats. 

  2. The option "Show Qty Field" "Select 'Yes' to display the quantity field on the product page." 
    Where should this be visible?  When I put it to yes I would expect to see an option about the amount of boxes I want before clickin on 'Oder' (Bestellen) button. 
    In my case only the text "FOF Model" shows left side to the 'oder' button. 
  3. Now only the productname is shown, is there a way to show more productinfo?

  4. In your examples I see J2Commerce as the name of the component, mine says still J2Store after update. 


Kind regards, Hein

Hein,

1. Good question, I suppose I can update it to allow a user to select any number of slots.

2. Can you update your website credentials so I can take a look at the backend?

Hi Adam, thanks for your support. If you should make any changes, pass them true so I can do them later on the live site. 

 

Kind regards, Hein

Hein,

Changes to make your life a little easier:

  • Re-enabled the J2store Administrator Module and changed the position to Status

and...
so the latest update will fix the issue for new users, but for existing ones, you will need to make the following change to one file:
file location: plugins/j2store/app_bootstrap5/app_bootstrap5/tmpl/bootstrap5/view_boxbuilder_cart.php

remove ~ line 39: $model = J2Store::fof()->getModel('AppNewlines', 'J2StoreModel');

 

edit ~ line 73: 
replace : 

$model->displayQuantity

with:

J2Store::product()->displayQuantity

I will work on making the available slots a number input field so you can add as many as you wish.  The changes above will fix the quantity field issue.

Hein,

The dropdown to select 2-12 slots has been replaced with a text input field so you can enter as many slots as you need now. Just update to the latest release and you should be good!
