G'day OsSolutions Team,

I'd like to suggest the ability to create nested product features. For example, I sell safety signage which comes in different materials and sizes. It would be great if I could just list the product by its type and then product customers with all the options for that sign. For example:

Glasses Must be Worn
Sizes
-100 x 100
--Materials
---Polypro
---Steel
---Corflute
-140 x 290
--Materials
---Polypro
---Steel
---Reflective 1
---Reflective 2

I hope this is something you will be able to provide in the future.

Hello Andrew,

Sound like it is Product Options feature which is already supported by EShop. Please read the documentation about it here: eshopdocs.joomservices.com/catalog/products#product-options

Sincerely, Giang

G'day Giang,

I've read the link you provided, but I don't believe it answers my request...

I want to be able to create conditional or nested categories and options. Unless I'm missing something, Eshop currently allows you to create options which are listed independently. For example:

Product Colour: {red, blue, green, yellow etc.}
Product Feature: {feature1, feature2, feature3}

I want to create options that are based on the available product. These features might apply to some features and not others. For example:

Product Size:
{100x100 {polypro, self-adhesive}
200x200 {polypro, metal1, metal2}
300x300 {polypro, self-adhesive, metal2}}

In this example, if someone was to choose a sign size of 200x200, then they would be shown 3 material styles (polypro, metal1, metal2). If they then chose 100x100 instead, then the options would change to polypro and self-adhesive.

Without this feature, I have to create an entry for every different size sign I want to sell. This makes the site overly complex and repetitive.

Is this a feature that you could look into for future updates?

Cheers,

Andrew
