Thank you.]]> E-junkie Discussions; lemonbar http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/2814/pg/0#post7559 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/2814/pg/0#post7559 Tue, 2 Sep 2008 17:01:06 GMT
The answer is yes. You can edit the code for variations to add, remove, or change an option value.

Doing so will not cause any problems and the variation info will be added to the PayPal line item.

We do not verify the option values of variations... so, if in E-Junkie you have a T-Shirt with BLACK and BLUE option values, and you change the code such that the options available on your site are RED, PURPLE, and ORANGE... the sale will still be processed.

But I did any and I do not feel confident in the answer yet.


So, let me ask it this way then:

Can I setup the variations (the type which has nothing to do with price) in ejunkie as BLACK, BLUE GREEN and then in the actual code i put on the website completely change it to PINK, YELLOW, BLACK which are not listed in ejunkie item setup?

What problems will that cause?

Or does that feature just take the selection and put it into the paypal line item without checking?

As I asked, does it verify it in ejunkie and not process the sale if that variation comes through but isnt listed in ejunkie?

I am not sure how many different ways I have to ask this question. I hope it is clear now.]]> E-junkie Discussions; lemonbar http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/2814/pg/0#post7559 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/2814/pg/0#post7559 Fri, 29 Aug 2008 23:07:53 GMT
Answer #2: With variations you can add options and option values but not with variants.

Answer #3: Variation code does not matter, however, variant code does.

Answer #4: Yes it is possible, but you would have to setup javascript to do so on your site.

If you're using E-Junkie marketplace, then you must add variations within the E-Junkie Seller Admin.


BTW, here's the difference between a variant and a variation:

Variants are for items with different SKU, price, stock, and weight. When adding or editing a product in Seller Admin this option is listed as "Variants having individual price/weight/stock/SKU"

Variations are for entering information about products that all have the same price, sku, and weight. When adding or editing a product in Seller Admin, this option is listed as "Variations which tell more about the product ordered".

(Just thought I would clarify since the two are commonly mixed up)]]> E-junkie Discussions; Stefanie http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/2814/pg/0#post7559 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/2814/pg/0#post7559 Wed, 27 Aug 2008 15:39:46 GMT
For a simple example I want to have an item setup in ejunkie.

1 item called SHIRTS for $100.

It will have 1 field for variants called COLOR.

I will set the variant (non price change type of variant) up in ejunkie to have BLUE, WHITE, GREEN, PINK, YELLOW, BROWN, GOLD.

So in ejunkie I will have:

SHIRTS $100 - COLOR: BLUE, WHITE, GREEN, PINK, YELLOW, BROWN, GOLD

So the copy and past code will set all that up with all the variant options...

BUT, when I put it on my site I decide I do not want the user to be able to select a PINK shirt for example. Or I have that shirts button in different areas selling the shirt for the same price but limited colors.

Question #1: Can I edit the actual variant code that goes on my site, without changing it in ejunkie, to not have the variant PINK without causing a processing problem?

Question #2: Can I ADD a variant in the code that goes on my site without first adding it in ejunkie or will this cause a variant problem? For example, ADD the color BLACK in the website code but not in ejunkie?

Question #3: Do the variants code on the website even matter for verification and processing at all? Or does it simply supply us with text information about what the customer wants?

Qusestion #4: Is there a way to force the user to select a variant field before checking out?
