Setting up Dependent Choices

If you have some choices that are only available if the user selects another choice, for example if certain sizes are only available in certain fabrics, you can set up a dependent choice. Setting up Dependent Choices is a two step process:

1. First enter the main choices and save. For example: 
 


 
2. Edit the product again, this time adding the "Parent" designation. For example:
 

The above settings would make these combinations available to order:

Red: Small and Medium

Blue: Medium and Large

Green: Small and Large

 

Note: if your site has inventory controls along with dependent choice options, you must enter an inventory quantity on the "Parent" line as well as the individual option line in order for any options for that parent to show on the site.
