Hello fellow OpenCart users!
I'm starting another project using OpenCart and was wondering how easy it would be to associate a different picture with a product option.
Basically, the I have the same product but in different colours. So If the user selects "Blue" as a colour then a blue shirt will appear in the image box, and if they select red, then the shirt becomes red and so on.
Any thoughts? Has someone done this already?

Hi Q, I am liking the look of this...... Is there any possibility at getting a peek at the front end result???? I have been "shopping" for this module for a while now....
Is it available now? Don't see the graphic feature on the description of the Option Plus module on your website.
Cheers
You can also associate options with images by using the option name, that's how I've been doing it when building websites for ppl. Putting it in the mod does give the user control over it though...

Think outside the box - You can do this with Q's or mine or the default options. You just need to update your template files.

An update on Options Plus with option price update. I've changed the way Option plus works now to make all mods work together. The new design will use its own image next to the option. This will make all mods work in harmony

Ok the new version has been released. Download it from your account page on my website.
New features:
- Added image popup for option images
- Added tooltip hovering for option info
DEMO
Things to see:
1. Change the select boxes, to change the image
2. Hover over the image to see the description
3. Click on the image to thickbox popup
4. Add to cart to see option SKU in cart. SKU gets passed to admin area
The demo also shows the option price update script to show that they work together, but it is not included.

I got all the original files
catalog/view/theme/YOURTHEME/template/product/product.tpl
admin/view/template/catalog/product_form.tpl
admin/model/catalog/product.php
and replaced/added the code but still the same issues.

OK, so your module doesn't look at Admin>>Configuration>>Setting>Option. In this case you should always enter a figure for number in stock.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.

Hi Q,
Is it possible to add the SKU to the enhanced order e-mail?

Impressive.
I think I will get this module as many of my clients like to have control over everything on their sites.
Just to clarify then, say I select a version of the Iphone that is red. Can I get it to display the red iphone in the main picture box or would this require some modification of the code on my part?
Cheers

Hi Q,
Here is something of a feature request. As it turns out most of my competitors use something like the OC 'Special' feature to show a strike through price and then the actual price. Some of them also use a statement saying "Price elsewhere € x,xx Our Price € y.yy".
Although I am not the cheapest shop in my field, I feel I must at least give the customer the feeling that he is getting some kind of discount upfront which he does get in most cases. So what I do is I have a statement saying "Recommended price € x.xx - Our price: € y,yy".
The only way to show this statement for every option when you use Options Plus is to do this by hand for every single product/option. What I do is I put this text in "Misc Info" and tell the customer on the product page to mouse over eacht option to see the Recommended and Our price. And I changed the normal "Price:" text into a red "Our price:" to tell the customer we don't use the regular prices.

Before I am finished uploading data I will have some 8,000 to 10,000 items in the shop. So I am really looking for a more effeciënt way to do this. Because for every price change (which is usually a bit of an anual thing) I will have to go into the product module itself for each product to change the price and then I have to calculate all the price increases for every option and change all these data in Options Plus and I have to change the text in the Misc Info field (two prices) for every single product/option.
Furthermore the way to display the info (having to mouse over the option) isn't the most eye catching way to do this. I have been giving it some thought but haven't come up with a good idea yet. Displaying every option as a stand alone product on it's own page (as some competitors do) would solve this problem but isn't really an option either given the amount of work involved and it gives a less statisfying experience navigating the site as far as I am concerned.
So ..... any clever ideas??
