Hello,
Upon installation, Ubercart creates a new content type - Product - which serves to publish items in the online store that have a price and can be added to the shopping cart.
Please help with the following question:
How do I add a second content type that serves to add items to the store that require other fields in the content type (new group of products with different information fields) and again have product behavior - have a price, add to cart, etc.
@amilenkov - I was looking for the same thing recently. I expected that I could build different "product types". But, as far as I can tell, Ubercart works with a single product content type.
However, it does have some other options to customize your products and I expect you could put conditional fields in your product, based upon which type of product it is.
I'm looking forward to seeing if someone else has a better answer.
There is a setting in Ubercart that seems to me to be for adding a new "product-like" content type but whether my assumption is correct and if so, I'm not sure how this is used:
admin/store/products/classes
/admin/store/products/classes
Add a new "class" - a new content type (with product properties) will be created.
Thank you very much. I would go the other way around - create a content type and try to add it as a class.
You can accomplish this by creating a new content type that shares the same product behavior as your current Product content type. To do this, navigate to Structure > Content Types in your Drupal admin panel and select "Add Content Type." After creating your new content type, you must enable the "Product" options for it. Use the Ubercart settings to add the fields you want, and make sure to configure the price and add-to-cart features. You may need to build special field groups and adjust the product display as necessary. Best of luck with your store!
/admin/store/products/classes
