Scenario 1: Creating and Linking Parent and Child Products
Problem:
You want to create a product landing page that guides customers to either upload their files or use a variable template (MegaEdit product), with both options existing within a single product page.
Solution:
- Create the Parent and Child Products:
- Navigate to
Catalogue > Products
> Product Management and create your parent product as a Multi Product Custom Product, found under the Custom product type (e.g., "Custom Poster").
- Create and configure your child products (e.g., "Upload Your Own Poster" (Multipart product) and "Design Using Template" (MegaEdit product)).
- Ensure relevant product attributes are created and applied to parent and/or child products.
- Configure Multi-Product Custom Product:
- Once created, navigate to your Multi-Product Custom Product within Product Management and click Edit
- Click Multi Product Config to access product type-based settings for this product. This will take you to a screen allowing you to define the child products to apply to this parent product.
- Link Child Products:
- Select the child products to be linked to the parent.
- Click the "+" button to add them.
- Configure settings such as button CSS and button translation keys for a customized user interface.
Scenario 2: Sharing Attributes Between Parent and Child Products
Problem:
Attributes selected by customers on the parent product should carry over to child products upon selection.
Solution:
- Ensure Identical Attribute Names and Options:
- Go to the attributes section of both the parent and child products.
- Verify that attribute names are exactly the same for the attributes you wish to carry over and that the available options (such as dropdown options or checkbox selections) are identical.
- Test Attribute Passing:
- Open the parent product in the storefront.
- Select options and proceed to the linked child product.
- Confirm that the attributes are correctly carried over.
