Hello all Interchange listees -
Below please find a pair of Interchange UserTags to add to the pot:
[add-item] and [del-item]. Together these tags allow you to manipulate the
cart contents without direct user interaction. Given the number of
questions I have seen on the list about ways to automatic stuff with the
order contents, I think that these will be of some use to the community at
large, and I hope that Akopia will add them to the Usertag library.
Best Regards,
Ed LaFrance

UserTag add-item Documentation <<EOD
NAME: add-item
FUNCTION: programatically places item(s) in Intechange shopping carts
without direct user interaction
IC VERSION: 4.6.x; should work with MV4 (not tested), may require changes
for MV3.1x
(not tested)
USAGE: Named:
[add-item code="sku" qty="quantity"* cart="cartname"* inc="increment"*]
Positional:
[add-item sku quantity* cartname* increment*]
* = optional parameters
PARAMETERS: code = the sku of the item to place in the cart. This is the only
required parameter
qty = the qty of the item to be placed in the cart. Default is 1.
This parameter works is coordinated with inc (see below).
cart = the name of the shopping cart in which to place the item.
Default is 'main'.
inc = Provide a non-blank value to increment (by amount of qty)
the quantity of an existing item in the cart, if there is one.
See DISCUSSION for more info.
DISCUSSION:
[add-item] can be used to place items in the shopping cart without
requiring the user
to explicitly click an 'Order' link, submit a form, etc. Example:
[set items]widgetA widgetB widgetC widgetD[/set]
[loop arg="[scratch items]"]
[add-item [loop-code]]
[/loop]
Placing the above snippet on a page and displaying that page in the browser
will cause
one each of the four items in the scratch variable to be placed in the
default cart -
provided that they are valid items in a defined products file.
This tag works in coordination with the ProductFiles catalog.cfg directive:
if mutiple
products files are used, each will be scanned in turn until an entry which
matches "code"
is found. If no match is found, nothing will be added to the cart
This tag also coordinates with the SeparateItems catalog.cfg directive. If
SeparateItems
is disabled (not set to 'Yes'), [add-item] will look for an ALL EXISTING
INSTANCES of "code"
in the cart, and increase the ordered quantity by "qty" for each. If
SeparateItems is set
to "Yes" (enabled), [add-item] will place a new instance of "qty" amount of
"code" in the cart.
You can over-ride this behavior by setting "inc" to any non-blank value;
doing so will cause
[add-item] to behave as if SeparateItems is disabled.

UserTag del-item Documentation <<EOD
NAME: del-item
FUNCTION: programatically removes, or reduces the quantity of, item(s)
in Intechange shopping carts without direct user interaction
IC VERSION: 4.6.x; should work with MV4 (not tested), may require changes
for MV3.1x
(not tested)
USAGE: Named:
[del-item code="sku" qty="quantity"* cart="cartname"*]
Positional:
[del-item sku quantity* cartname*]
* = optional parameters
PARAMETERS: code = the sku of the item to remove or reduce. This is the only
required parameter
qty = the qty of the item to be removed from the cart. The default
is to completely remove the item.
cart = the name of the shopping cart in which to place the item.
Default is 'main'.
DISCUSSION:
[del-item] removes some or all of an item from a shopping cart, without
requiring direct user
interaction. The tag can be used on any valid Interchange page prior to
order submission. If
a value for the "qty" parameter is not supplied, ALL INSTANCES of the
specified item will be
completely removed from the cart if it is found. If "qty" is supplied,
[del-item] will
attempt to reduce ALL INSTANCES of the specified item by the amount of
"qty". If this would
result in a remainder of 0 or less in any one instance, then that instance
of the item will
be completely removed.
