Products in multiple categories

[cmswarrior]

E-commerce module should allow a product to be in multiple categories.

[cmswarrior]

still working on it.

I've modified the childProducts method within the ProductGroups? class as an attempt at tackling this. Diff attached.

Jeremy has sent me the recursive method that he has made for Product.

Thanks Jeremy !

However, this work corresponds more to "Products in child categories".

The title of this ticket seems to refer to a many many relation Product - Product Groups.

I have just had a quick look to the code and it seems that it has been partially done in the version 0.5.2 (belongs_many_many is present in ProductGroup?).

The many many relation needs to be added and managed by a ManyManyComplexTable? field without the add and edit functionalities (Not good to add or edit pages in a comlex table field !)

Hey rlouis, are you working on this? pls. let me know, cause i am working on using ManyManyComplexTable? to achieve this functionality.

Thanks.

Thanks cmswarrior ! But I am gonna do it myself, it's just a few lines of code to add.

I made this a little while back. Might be useful to incorporate as an option (perhaps add a boolean parameter to make it recursive or not). Its useful to be able to combine all sub-categories of products into higher categories.
