According to the documentation, there is a has_options
attribute on the Common Product Card Model that should return a boolean showing whether or not the product has options.
However, this value is returning false
for all of my products, even though they have options. For example, if I access the homepage in debug mode via this url:
http://localhost:3000/?debug=context
One of the products under the featured products section is:
{
"id": 114,
"name": "Product Name",
"url": "http://www.example.com/product-url",
"brand": null,
"rating": 5,
"availability": "Usually ships the next business day",
"summary": "Product summary goes here",
"image": {
"data": "https://cdn2.bigcommerce.com/server2100/abcdef/images/stencil/{:size}/products/114/8086/product_image.jpg?c=2",
"alt": ""
},
"date_added": "January 6, 2014",
"qty_in_cart": 0,
"pre_order": false,
"has_options": false,
"show_cart_action": false,
"add_to_wishlist_url": "/wishlist.php?action=add&product_id=114",
"price": {
"without_tax": {
"formatted": "$19.99",
"value": 19.99
},
"rrp_without_tax": {
"formatted": "$24.99",
"value": 24.99
},
"saved": {
"formatted": "$5.00",
"value": 5
},
"tax_label": "Tax"
}
}
As you can see has_options
is false
. However, this product does have options. Via the control panel, I can see that it has a color swatch option. I can also see this by navigating to the products page in debug mode at http://localhost:3000/product-url?debug=context
. As you can see, part of the output contains the options information for that product:
"options": [
{
"id": 498,
"type": "Configurable_PickList_Swatch",
"display_name": "Color",
"required": true,
"condition": true,
"values": [
{
"label": "Powder Coat Black",
"id": 390,
"data": [
"000000"
],
"selected": false
},
{
"label": "Anodized Aluminum",
"id": 391,
"data": [
"D9D9D9"
],
"selected": false
}
],
"partial": "swatch"
}
],
As you can see, the product does in fact have options, yet the Common Product Card Model for this product shows has_options
as false
.
Is there some other setting that is effecting the output of has_options
? Why would it be showing false
for a product that has options?
