Product choice wizard

Product choice wizard

Hello,

 

Im kind of new to Magento, and I want to make a custom wizard. Im not new to programming, but I need some help here.

Say I have a database of products, with attributes linked to them. I want some sort of form or applet that makes me choose attributes. For example a form where you can choose a color, length, width and material. So a small form, and after a submit a list of possible products come out.

 

I can't find an appropriate solution, so if someone has a clue, please let me know! If there currently is such extension, then I would also like to know

 

Thanks!

Re: Product choice wizard

sounds like magento layered navigation or advanced search. take a look at these 2 features, maybe you don't even need to write anything.

I might have been a bit unclear, but I have found an example:

This one works with alot of jquery, that is not a problem but the way this is implemented is not  very neat. I think there is an easier way, but I cant find it.

Re: Product choice wizard

yes this is essentially a dynamic search form, you could just use js to generate your dymanic form elements (product attributes enabled in advanced search form), post the form to advanced search controller, and customize the advanced search result page tempalte to your like.

Hi @luckyice, have you found something in the meantime? If not, you can try out this web-based platform. It lets you create quizzes based on product attributes, similar to what you described. Here’s an example of an interactive quiz integrated on Magento site https://www.micro-scooters.co.uk/smart-adviser. 

 

Hope this helps, good luck!
