      Hi,

      where can I find the option, that the pre-selected Items are not shown in the cart/mails?
      Because I mean the pre-selected items are already the main ingredients and it’s confusing for the customer and the pizza cook if all pre-selected items are additionally shown in the cart.

      I couldn’t find the option for it to deactivate it.
      Did I overread it somewhere? 🙂

        > the pre-selected items are already the main ingredients
        in which case they should not be an additional selectable ingredient .
        E.g a (typical) Pizza Margharita is a pizza topped with tomato, mozzarella, and fresh basil.
        Unless you want the customer to be able to add “extra mozarella” – in which case you would add an “extra mozarella” ingredient – it would simply not be available as an add ingredient (you would probably want to write “pizza topped with tomato, mozzarella, and fresh basil” in the product description instead though)

          I think I have a logical error.

          The following situation:
          There is a pizza, let’s say it’s called Della Casa. And it has various ingredients. But now the customer doesn’t want an ingredient on this pizza. So how can I set it up so that the customer can remove one or even several ingredients, such as olives, from the pizza and/or add other ingredients such as broccoli.

          So that the shopping cart then says:
          Della Casa
          (German prefix “Ohne” for no)
          Ohne ham, Ohne olives, 1x broccoli, 1x etc…

          With the preselection, the customer could remove unwanted ingredients, and the prefix would appear in the shopping cart. However, the remaining ingredients and those that the customer adds would also be visible in the shopping cart.

          So what would be the logical order to implement this in the settings for the products whose ingredients can be removed?

            Option 1: you name the ingredient accordingly. i.e call it “ohne Olives” in the first place
            (you may want to also then enable option: ‘Omit “1x” in cart, order and account history?’ – though the 1x is still shown initially when choosing. I may look into this at some point )

            Option 2: The much easier option is to simply add a textfield ( custom groups => add textbox to item) where the customer can write this sort of thing.

            PS:
            Personally I always found Option 2 above complete overkill (and it would not make the administration of it all any simpler). I believe it only manages to confuse people and is only really that useful for some specific situations.
            Customers (most of them anyway) are quite capable to say if they do not want something from a menu item (or perhaps they should order something different to start off with – but that’s somewhat academic here).
            Just my 2 cents worth though

            The choice is yours of course

              Oh my godness…i sorted out the logic and did it.
              First step:
              Add all ingredients that already are in the Group again inside the same group but with a changed name like if there was a Ingredient named Salami, add another one with the name “ohne Salami” (“without Salami”).
              Second Step:
              Create a custom group with the type EXCLUDE for a product and EXCLUDE all “without ingredients” except the ones, which the customers should be able to deselect in the ordering process.
              Third step:
              Create another custom group for the SAME product, this time type “Group must have *AT LEAST*..[..] but no more then 1 ingredient”, include here the “without ingredients” which customers should be able to deselect. With the group label “OHNE” (“WITHOUT”)

              And now you have the situation which I wanted. 😀
              Thanks to your hint to name the ones already with “ohne” and the group options, customers can now deselect a main ingredient of a pizza (because of allergens or something) and if they want, add other ingredients. And you can see in the cart/mails the deselected ones and the additionally added ones. I mean yeah, it’s a lil bit of work to add 2 Groups for every Pizza, but in the end, it looks nice and smooth for the cook and the customers.
              I wished there would be an easier process for that, but hey, it works for me. 🙂
