Viewing Sold Items?

[heathere]

Hi, I am setting up Miva for a client who will be selling handmade jewelry in small quantities (only 1 or 2 of each in stock at a time). They would customers to be able to view any SOLD products on a separate page within the store. I have inventory tracking enabled in the store, but I have not seen a module for displaying sold/out of stock items on a separate page.

Would there be a way to create a new page template and some kind of IF statement (ie. if quantity = 0, then display product) for this? It seems kind of straightforward to think about but I am not sure how to go about executing this. I'd appreciate any help!

The Miva store doesn't have a built-in way to display out-of-stock products, so I don't think you can do this just by modifying page templates. If you'd be interested in a custom solution, please drop me a line by email to discuss the details.

well, you COULD setup inventory and use the Product List, and then modify the Product List Layout template wrapping the foreach output with:

<mvt:if expr="l.settings:product:inv_level EQ 'out'">
</mvt:if>

HOWEVER, that means as soon as someone adds a product to their basket, that product will THEN appear in the "Sold" list until they leave the site and the basket is "recovered".

In short, the main problem is the ability to track inventory down to a specific level of one or two. Probably better just to set up a Category called "Sold" and have them assign/unassign the products as they are sold.
