Minimum quantity for a product

[robinemcd]

I know this has been asked before, but I haven't found a good answer to my situation. I need to be able to set a minimum quantity for an item - specifically 50. But, the buyer can purchase more, 51, 52 or 100 or anything in between. But, the minimum is 50. Is there an easy way to set a minimum quantity for a specific product.

Bill Weiland's CIM Minimum and Maximum Quantity. Miva hasn't updated this module and it is not in the app store. It does not work out of the box with current versions of ReadyThemes.

I have a utility module that can be used for this, among other things. You can drop me a line by email or PM for details.

If it's only a few products, you can do this by creating a custom field and a bit of jQuery/javascript. Using a condition that states:

If value in custom field, then apply a 'jQuery/javascript' routine to block the "add to basket" feature unless the quantity field has a value greater than the value in the custom field. (You will also need this test in the Basket template as well.

If you don't know how to do this, or you have quite a few of these, get one of the modules. (Personally, I'd go with Kent's as he's able to still support updates.)
