I'm not sure if I need to have the product template look at advanced-excerpt rather than just excerpt? Sorry - I'm learning coding, but very slowly...</p> <p>And as far as I can see - there's no option to group variable products?</p> <p>Thanks for replying man, very much appreciated! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/music-player-in-excerpt-variables-for-grouped-products#post-36094 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 16:01:24 +0000 Dude 36094@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> 1) Wordpress strips html tags from the excerpt text (that's way it won't display the player too). I'd use plugins like: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-excerpt/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-excerpt/</a> which allow you to use html excerpts too.</p> <p>2) Did you try to use the "Variable product" type? You could set different file types/codecs as variations. I'm not sure if this is the best way to handle digital downloads but it's worth a try. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/music-player-in-excerpt-variables-for-grouped-products#post-36033 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 09:48:28 +0000 DavidKenney 36033@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Guys,</p> <p>Firstly - thanks for putting together such a great, simple to use theme. I've been searching for the ideal solution for my record labels site/online store for months, and I finally found it in Abundance. Thanks!</p> <p>A few queries I wonder if you can help with...</p> <p>On the store side of my site, I'll mostly be selling digital downloads (music). My products are set up as releases, each of which contain several tracks (see a standard release here: <a href="http://audioparallax.com/shop/apr028-the-warm-signal-faded-love-2/)" rel="nofollow">http://audioparallax.com/shop/apr028-the-warm-signal-faded-love-2/)</a>.</p> <p>I'd really like to have a music player above the product details rather than in the product description. The only way I can see to do this is to paste the shortcode for my player into the Excerpt field, however this wont allow HTML. I've tried adding a few code snippets I found online, but these all apply to my theme's functions file - but I have the feeling I need to change the code in the product templates. Can anyone suggest a solution to this?</p> <p>Question No. 2 (Apologies if this maybe should have been split into two threads..)</p> <p>I'd really like to offer MP3 and WAV on the site - meaning each track would have two variables - each with a separate download link. With the grouped products as they are, I cant see a way around this. Ideally MP3 and WAV versions would have different prices, but I could make them the same if it was easier. I really want to avoid having a catalogue full of single tracks, or two grouped products for each release...</p> <p>Hope you can help, I appreciate your time (I haven't done much work on the look/content of the site yet....)</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
