Slots not product specific
I was quite surprise to realise that slots in a configurable product page are systemwide and not product specific. surely this is counterproductive as it means the pages cannot be cloned and you have to create a slot for every product type a one-to-one relationship in our case. I had assumed that the slots were simply controlling the mandatory and optional number of products that can be included on the page. it took a long while to realise that slot which already had a product type signed was picking up the assignmentfrom a different product.

very confusing.

is there a workaround?

regards

Re: Slots not product specific

Hi Paul,

The product configuration in Catalook still makes me whence on some projects I face. However, it's mostly due to how bloated it is that makes it most confusing. I still have to catch myself from time to time and remember this cart was made as a catch-all for damn near every business type. Enough said.

On to your particular issues. Can you please give me a specific product setup as your "ideal" solution. (i.e. if it were the way you wanted it, it would look and act like...)

This will help me out in learning exactly what you are out to accomplish and I should be able to configure a solution to meet your needs without too much of a headache.

There are SQL scripts that can be run later to allocate different configurations and attributes to the products in a logical manner. We just need to set the baseline.
