I am trying to write a custom module which is capable of duplicating a product into multiple products with only varying SKU. I have tried using function duplicate() under /app/code/core/Mage/Catalog/Model/Product.php in my custom module. But its not working.
I am using the below code in my custom Obesrever.php file to duplicate, but duplication is not occuring
$product = $observer->getEvent()->getProduct();
$newProduct = $product->duplicate();
can anyone suggest me any links to do this or any code format would be helpful.
Thanks
It would be great if you can post the complete function that you are trying to debug or create duplicate products and config.xml (where you are trying to call the event).
Below code works for me in CE 1.9.2.2 without any problems. This function does the following tasks:
Creates duplicate of the original product
Sets the stock to "In Stock" and Qty to "100" (hard coded for now)
Automates reindexing
public function indexAction() //change the function name
{
$productId = $observer->getEvent()->getProduct()->getId();
$productObject = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');
$_product = $productObject->load($productId);
$newProduct = $_product->duplicate();
//new product status is disabled - to view in the frontend you will need to set the status as enabled
$newProduct->setStatus(1);
$newProduct->setName('Duplicate-' . $_product->getName());
$newProduct->setSku('value-' . $productId);
$newProduct->setWebsiteIds($_product->getWebsiteIds());
//set the product stock and qty to display product in the frontend
//while creating duplicate product, it will update the new product to have qty 0 and out of stock
$stockItem = Mage::getModel('cataloginventory/stock_item')->loadByProduct($newProduct->getId());
if ($stockItem->getId() > 0 && $stockItem->getManageStock())
{
$qty = 100;
$stockItem->setQty($qty);
$stockItem->setIsInStock((int)($qty > 0));
$stockItem->save();
}
$newProduct->getResource()->save($newProduct);
//automate reindexing - to display the product in the frontend
$indexers = Mage::getSingleton('index/indexer')->getProcessesCollection();
foreach ($indexers as $indexer)
{
$indexer->reindexEverything();
}
}
Hope this helps.
Happy Coding...

I have a custom observer in Magento 1.8.1.0 that is called on Product view page when current product having any upsell products. I have verified (using Mage::log()) that the observer is working, however when I try the following:
public function updateUpsells(Varien_Event_Observer $oObserver)
{
$iCurrentCategory = Mage::registry('current_category')->getId();
$oUpsellCollection = $oObserver->getCollection();
foreach ($oUpsellCollection->getItems() as $key => $oUpsellProduct) {
$aCategoriesIds = $oUpsellProduct->getCategoryIds();
if (!in_array($iCurrentCategory, $aCategoriesIds)) {
$oUpsellCollection->removeItemByKey($key);
}
}
}
On echo $oUpsellCollection; i got nothing returned ?
Is anyone know how to get upsell products collection ? Is this a proper way to do it ?
$upsellCollection = $_product->getUpSellProductCollection();
I'm trying to make something different with my Magento instance;
I want to increase product's stock (in a certain condition) when I'm selling a product. I've added a custom checkbox in the Magento Admin panel and when it's checked I expect to increase product's quantity.
I'm currently investigating the following method:
Mage_Sales_Model_Service_Quote:submitOrder()
Is it a good place to start looking at? Any tip on this problem?
I think I've achieved what I wanted.
I've added the following lines at Mage_Sales_Model_Service_Quote:submitOrder()
...
// $mySpecialCondition = form.checkbox
foreach ($quote->getAllItems() as $item) {
if($mySpecialCondition){
$item->setQty(0 - $item->getQty(), true);
}
...
and also changed the method Mage_Sales_Model_Quote_Item:_prepareQty to accept negative values:
protected function _prepareQty($qty, $ignoreValue = false)
{
$qty = Mage::app()->getLocale()->getNumber($qty);
if(!$ignoreValue){
$qty = ($qty > 0) ? $qty : 1;
}
return $qty;
}
Thanks anyway :)
I've got an instance of magento 1.7 CE running, and a second site that calls it via the SOAP api v2 from php.
I can't seem to find out how to add an array of products (given by productId or SKU) to a cart and then redirect to the cart page.
I've tried adding the items to the cart via shoppingCartProductAdd, which works, however I can't find out how to then open that cart back on magento.
I've also tried directly formulating a link that passes products via GET, however this only works for a single product ( checkout/cart/add?product=[id]&qty=[qty] ), for my purpose a whole array of products needs to be passed before redirecting to magento.
Any ideas?
Figured it out.
Basically one can use a link shaped like
http://example.com/checkout/cart/add?product=1&related_product=2,3,4,5
To fill the shoppingcart with products with id 1 .. 5 and then go to the cart in magento.
In my case I generated the link like this
if(!isset($session)) {
$client = new SoapClient('http://example.com/index.php/api/v2_soap?wsdl=1');
$session = $client->login('username', 'Qq314asdgUScrncfD7VMb');
}
if(!isset($cart)) {
$cart = $client->shoppingCartCreate($session);
}
$ids = array();
foreach($items as $id) {
$result = $client->catalogProductInfo($session, $id." ", null, 'sku');
$ids[] = $result->product_id;
}
$this->Session->delete('Cart');
$this->redirect('http://example.com/checkout/cart/add?product='.$ids[0].'&related_product=' . implode(array_slice($ids, 1), ','));
I want to show popup when a product is first added to cart in Magento and don't want to show a popup if the product was added again or updated.In short, I want to know product which is going to be added in the cart is First occurence or not?
The answer largely depends on how you want to deal with parent/child type products (if you need to).
If you are only dealing only with simple products or you have parent/child type products and you need to test for child id's then:
$productId = 1;
$quote = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote();
if (! $quote->hasProductId($productId)) {
// Product is not in the shopping cart so
// go head and show the popup.
}
Alternatively, if you are dealing with parent/child type products and you only want to test for the parent id then:
$productId = 1;
$quote = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote();
$foundInCart = false;
foreach($quote->getAllVisibleItems() as $item) {
if ($item->getData('product_id') == $productId) {
$foundInCart = true;
break;
}
}
EDIT
The question was asked in a comment as to why setting a registry value in controller_action_predispatch_checkout_cart_add is not available to retrieve in cart.phtml.
Essentially registry value are only available through the life of a single request - you are posting to checkout/cart/add and then being redirected to checkout/cart/index - so your registry values are lost.
If you would like to persist a value across these then you can use the session instead:
In your observer:
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setData('your_var', 'your_value');
To retrieve the value
$yourVar = Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getData('your_var', true);
The true flag being passed to getData will remove the value from the session for you.
In order check if the product is already in cart or not, you can simply use the following code:
$productId = $_product->getId(); //or however you want to get product id
$quote = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote();
$items = $quote->getAllVisibleItems();
$isProductInCart = false;
foreach($items as $_item) {
if($_item->getProductId() == $productId){
$isProductInCart = true;
break;
}
}
var_dump($isProductInCart);
Hope this helps!
As the title says,i need to mass-assign products to a category and from the admin i can only edit one product at a time; i dont know why it just doesnt work to mass add them from the "category products" tab in the category page.
Thats why i need another method that's fast,like using phpMyAdmin or something alike.
Any help?
Thanks in advance!
I created a simple script to do this outside of Magento. Be sure to test this first on a single product and make sure it looks as you'd expect.
// Load Magento
require_once 'path/to/app/Mage.php';
Mage::app();
// $productIds is an array of the products you want to modify.
// Create it however you want, I did it like this...
$productsIds = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->getCollection()
->addAttributeToFilter('sku', array('like' => 'something'))
->getAllIds();
// Array of category_ids to add.
$newCategories = array(20);
foreach ($productIds as $id) {
$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($id);
$product->setCategoryIds(
array_merge($product->getCategoryIds(), $newCategories)
);
$product->save();
}
If you wish to overwrite a product's existing categories, change array_merge(...) to just $newCategories.
I would shy away from tackling this problem from the database side of things. If you do go that direction make sure and take lots of backups and do it during low usage.
The following thread on the Magento forum identifies the very same problem. One poster recommends a raw sql approach with example. Again, I would be careful - make sure you take backups.
The answer I like best from the thread (posted by Magento MVP):
Go into the category you don’t want them in, find the product list.
Click the check boxes on the products you want to remove and select
delete from the little dropdown.
Now go into the category where you
do want them, go to the product list. Select the NO dropdown so it
shows items not in the category. You might have to do a selective
search to limit stuff and do it in a couple iterations. Click the
check boxes and tell it to add stuff.
You may as well do this using the magento API
This is the script I use for mass adding products. sku.txt contains one sku per line.
<?php
$wsdlUrl = "magento-root/index.php/api/soap/?wsdl";
$proxy = new SoapClient($wsdlUrl);
$sessionId = $proxy->login('apiuser', 'apipasswd');
$listOfDiscountedSKUFile = "sku.txt";
function readinFile($filePath)
{
$fp = fopen($filePath,'r') or exit("Unable to open file!");
$dataItems = array();
while(!feof($fp))
{
$dataItems[] = trim(fgets($fp));
}
fclose($fp);
var_dump($dataItems);
return $dataItems;
}
function addToCategory($sku,$categoryId)
{
global $proxy,$sessionId;
$proxy->call($sessionId, 'category.assignProduct', array($categoryId, $sku));
}
function IsNullOrEmptyString($question){
return (!isset($question) || trim($question)==='');
}
$categoryId = 82;//e.g.
$listOfSKU = readinFile($listOfDiscountedSKUFile);
foreach($listOfSKU as $sku)
{
addToCategory($sku,$category);
}
?>
I managed to resolve the problem with the following code :
$write = Mage::getSingleton('core/resource')->getConnection('core_write');
$x = 1171;
$y = 2000;
$categoryID = 4;
$productPosition = 0;
while($x <= $y) {
$write->query("REPLACE INTO `catalog_category_product` (`category_id`, `product_id`, `position`) VALUES ($categoryID, $x++, $productPosition)");
}
echo "The job is done";
?>
I hope the code is clear for everyone,if it's not,reply and i'll try to explain it.
