Inventory Problem

Hi!
This is kinda hard to explain, but let me try and do my best. Lets just say i sell plastic cups. I only sell these plastic cups in packs. Packs of 2, 4, 8, and 16. Let's just say someone is buying 8 plastic cups. The way I have it set up now, they click on add to cart and it is adding 1 item named "8 plastic cups". But for inventory purposes, it does not deduct 8 cups from the inventory.

Is there a way to just make an item called "plastic cup" and set it to when they click the "add to cart" button, it adds the item "plastic cup" and automatically makes the quanity "8"? That way it would deduct correctly from the inventory and I could just uncheck the option to let them edit the quanity.

Yes, you can add &quantity=8 to the button URL, e.g.:

https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?c=cart&i=XXXXXX&cl=YYYYY&ejc=2& quantity=8

Also, if you disable "Let buyers edit quantity" for the product in your Admin, then buyers will be unable to edit the quantity ordered in-cart, while still allowing you to specify a quantity in the URL.
