Question

My development website has a traffic light graphic system to illustrate stock levels for each item.
In amongst those simple products, I have a few bundle products (more to come in future).
On the product listings (and details) pages, the stock graphic is always showing red, or out of stock – even when every product contained in the bundle is IN stock.

I figure the only way around this is to hide the stock graphic for all bundle products.

Does anyone know how to do this?
How do I perform a test in code to display (or not) the stock graphic based on the products type_id being bundle?

My worry is that this isn’t a great idea due to the added overhead of testing each product before displaying the page??

Any other suggestions are more than welcome!
Cheers!

Answer 1

It turns out this is far simpler than previously thought.
The following code will check if a product is of type “Bundle” and then conditionally show the stock counter.

<?php if($_product->getTypeId() != "bundle"): ?>
[Stock counter display code here]
<?php endif; ?>

I hope that helps someone else looking for this!
