How to display default attributes in basket, checkout?

[columbo]

Hi,

we use default- and select- products for our catalog;
all (default and select) products have attributes like "selling unit"

• for select products "selling unit" is stored as variant attribute
• for default products it is stored as default attribute

attribute "selling unit" is displayed on the article detailpage for both (default and select) articles as desired - ok
But on basket, checkout and basket-history page only attribute for selection article are displayed - not for default article

How can we display default attributes "selling unit" also in the basket?
Already added 'default' in shop.php like:

Code: Select all

client/html/common/summary/detail/product/attribute/types => ['default', 'variant', 'config', 'custom' ]

but without success

Thank you

The easiest option is to add the attribute as "hidden" attribute (https://aimeos.org/docs/latest/manual/p ... cteristics). Hidden attributes are always added to the ordered products by default without and configuration but they are not displayed in the frontend.

We would like to make the "selling unit" attribute visible in the basket (checkout, history) and in the payment mail.
Using the "hidden" attribute would be a bit misleading (but of course possible as a workaround).

Did I understand correctly, that the "default attribute" cannot be displayed in the basket, even if we add the "default" type in shop.php?

Another option would be to create a basket plugin similar to the PropertyAdd plugin, just for a configured list of attributes:

Yes, because the default attributes are not stored along with the ordered product. The mentioned configuration can only hide already available attributes.
