Opencart system limit on product options?

Hello,

I was wondering if opencart has some kind of "hard limit" on how many options a product can have. I am trying to set up an e-commerce site where users can customize their new guitar based on the many options provided by the manufacturer. The biggest one I have contains 60 option groups, with an average of 4 options per option group.

Thanks!

There is no limit from opencart, but your server likely can't handle all the form values at one time. This is an issue that comes up from time to time.

The solutions are use less options OR read this:

The php.ini file tries to force the settings to b higher. But most hosts don't allow php.ini to override the defaults
The htaccess file also has the option but they are commented out because it can cause ISE 500 errors when the server doesn't allow.

So first try enabling

# php_value upload_max_filesize 999M
# php_value post_max_size 999M
# php_value max_execution_time 200

by removing the # in the front

If that doesn't work or causes Internal Service Error 500, then add the # back and contact your host.
