EasyStore - .svg Suport, Tags, Filters
Adam K
Hello,
-
Is there a possibility for EasyStore of adding .svg files for image upload when creating a product? I added svg file format in joomla configuration (and it works for helix template), but after trying to upload logo.svg in EasyStore product image section nothing happens. It would be also nice to have an additional field for special images (like logo, chart, graphics), so you could use them in other places of page builder single product layout than default gallery with thumbnail (for exemple a chart below the description. etc)
-
Is there a way of choosing specific tags for filtering (not all of them)? Since you can filter by tags it would be nice to have an option to choose them for filtering. It would be also nice to have oportunity of managing EasyStore tags (group/categorise), so you could choose a group of tags in "filter by tag" field.
-
Is there a way of adding additional custom fields in EasyStore product layout that could be used for filtering? At this point we have only option of filtring by Categories, Variants, All tags, Price range, Availibility and sorting. Creating additional custom fields that could be used for filtering would be a very important feature, since the one you prepared are really poor (no possibility of filtring by manufacturer or product atributes - functions, features).
Imagine you have an agricultural shop and you want to sell seeds, fu rtilizers and machine parts - all these categories have no common porduct features/atributes and it would be really nice for the end user to have the oportunity to filter products in each category not only by price and availibilty.

Accepted AnswerHello Adam K
- It is added and will release in the next version.
- It is also release in the next version.
- This is not possible because in the filter option you are getting every option that is available for the products.

Accepted AnswerHello, Thank you for your response.
- Yes Easystore 1.0.4 supports .svg files - thank you.
But it would be nice to have an additional field for photo upload, so you could use a specific photo in other places than gallery (thumbnail)

I don't see an option in Easystore 1.0.4 to choose specific tags for filter addon in page builder. I can only choose filter type - "Tags" and no option to select tags.
-
OK. But at this point while adding a product you can put some information in section callded "Additional Data - Manage the specifications this product comes in."
So it would be nice to have more fields like that for additional data and than have an oportunity to use them for filtering.

I think you are talking about this. This option is not available and we do not have any plans for it. You can only create pages according to specific category.
Additional Features
Sorry, this will not be added in the filter options. This might create complexity in the products.

But would it be a big problem to let users group tags and than select groups for filtering?
Additional Featurs
Complexity of products is normal for most ecommerce. Most produts do not require options/variants but require additional fields for filtering.
The most important thing for the end user is the possibility of easy products filtering. At this point Easystore provides very poor experience in this area compared to other solutions on the market.

Accepted AnswerI really insist on allowing users to choose tags or tag groups when creating a filter field on easystore storefront layout! This is such a fundamental thing!!! Please, tell me how the end user can find a specific product out of 500 similar products if the only real filter he has got is to filter by categories?!!!
I can see how you focus on selling your product by creating eyecatching templates but at the end if our ecommerces wont turn out to be effective and easy to use for our customers you will eventualy get a real bad feedback.
