Solidus Variant Options

Solidus Variant Options is a very simple solidus extension that replaces the radio-button variant selection with groups of option types and values. To get a better idea let's let a few images do the explaining.

Configuration Options

Solidus Variant Options comes with some handy options:

• allow_select_outofstock (default : false) When using extension, you might want to allow your customer to add out of stock product by selecting out of stock variant options :

    <%= form_for Spree::WishedProduct.new, :html => {:"data-form-type" => "variant"} do |f| %>
      <%= f.hidden_field :variant_id, :value => @product.master.id %>
      <button type="submit" class="medium blue awesome">
        <%= t(:add_to_wishlist) %>
      </button>
    <% end %>

  By setting allow_select_outofstock to true, when an user selects variant options it will automatically update any form's input variant_id with an data-form-type="variant" attribute.

• default_instock (default: false) If this is option is set to true, it will automatically preselect in-stock variant options.

• main_option_type_id (default: 1) This is the option type id that will be use for showing each variant in the home.

• main_option_type_label (default: 'color') This is the option type label that will be use as URL parameter to preselect the option in the product show page.

These configuration options can be set in a config/initializers/spree_variant_options.rb file for example :

SolidusVariantOptions::VariantConfig.allow_select_outofstock = true
SolidusVariantOptions::VariantConfig.default_instock = true
