Complex Product Variants

Hello ◾️squarespacers _,

I ran into a huge problem (by numbers).

In shortest, I got to build site for car upholsterer.

Problem lays in large number of possible seat covers combinations:

- three base types of seat covers materials (mostly for central part of the seat),

- each type has 10 different designs (average),

- there are different type of material for side cushions (if you want two colour seats)

- approximately 40 brands of car manufacturers,

- each manufacturer has at least tree different models,

- seats in each model differ due to production year…

So, there are thousands of combinations.

I’d tried SQSP “out-of-the-box” solution but it is time consuming beyond futile.

In addition; I found excellent tutorial for adding complex variants (https://www.blackcoffeebeautiful.com/bcbblog/adding-squarespace-variants), but it can’t solve my problem, unfortunately.

My idea was to solve this with drop down choosers.

For example:

- from first drop down menu customer choose car manufacturer (Alfa Romeo, Audi, BMW…).

- If he choose “Audi”, on second drop down menu should only be shown Audi models (A3, A4, Q5…)

- If he choose “Q5”, on third drop down menu should only be shown production years relevant to this model (2009-2012, 2012-2017, 2017-…) etc - for all other required parameters…

Problem here is how to include or exclude options in next drop down menu?

If anyone have a slightest pointer how to solve this, I am open for all suggestions.

Best

Hope I was concise.
