Feature: #71 - Allow to Render Backend Variants in Different Selectors
See Issue 71
Description
In many cases the selection of backend variants in the frontend is not so user-friendly, especially if a product has more than one backend variant. In this case, every available combination is displayed as one entry in a selector. This version extends the selector with additional data attributes that are used to resolve this one selector into multiple selectors for each backend variant.
Before: each backend variant is an option in a single selector
After: backend variants were split into several selectors
The redesign is done via JavaScript, so that only a selector is displayed when JavaScript is deactivated. The JavaScript then also ensures that only available options can be selected.
Integration
Since this change in the view must first be adapted for the customer project, the necessary JavaScript is not included by default. This will probably be done in the upcoming major version.
- ::
- page.includeJSFooter.tx_cartproducts = EXT:cart_products/Resources/Public/JavaScripts/cart.js
Attention
The JavaScript is not yet finalized. There might be some changes in the coming minor versions. For this reason you should either include a copy via your own site package or check the behaviour in the page after each update.
