Was this information Helpful?

Is there a module that allows you to set condition such as New, Used, Refurbished, etc...

I sell various parts with various conditions and was just wondering if this is possible without using an attribute or something.

Re: How to add condition to a product

Yes, Taxonomy is built into Drupal/Ubercart. It is an extremely powerful way of classifying your products. go to /admin/content/taxonomy and or search Drupal.org for documentation on taxonomy. basically you generate a vocabulary (let's call it 'Product Condition'), decided if you want set the terms (words) in the vocabulary (think select box), or accept entered terms (think freetagging) and then edit your product content type and add the 'Product Condition' taxonomy to it.
Cheers,
Andy

Re: How to add condition to a product

I would definitely go with taxonomy (such as Andy suggested) or use CCK and add a select list with the conditions.

Re: Re: How to add condition to a product

Brian is right. a CCK field may even be a better solution if you have a fixed set of conditions and you don't want the product creator to have the flexibility to create new conditions on the fly.
Thank Brian.
