Sell products that combinations cannot model cleanly
Standard combinations are a poor fit when customers must enter a name or message, select a date, pay for extras, choose one option from a set, select several upgrades, or add a related catalog product. They create duplicate products, complicated attribute trees, and incomplete orders.
Advanced Product Configurator & Add-ons solves this by placing a structured configuration flow directly on each product page. Required inputs and validation reduce missing information, price impacts update the customization total, and every selection follows the configured product into the cart and order.
What the module adds
- Product-specific single-line text, textarea, date, and checkbox fields.
- Required fields, placeholders, field order, character limits, and text validation rules.
- Fixed price impacts for personalization fields and reusable global options.
- Reusable option sets with single-choice radio buttons or multi-choice checkboxes.
- Assignment of global options or option sets to all products or selected products.
- Existing catalog products as selectable add-ons, including one optional shop-wide add-on.
- Stock guard that prevents out-of-stock child products from being assigned.
- Live configuration summary and customization-price total.
- Optional guided steps with progress bar, configurable colors, and three preview layouts.
- Required-field validation and a product-listing guard against incomplete quick add-to-cart.
- Configuration values in cart, customer order details, and Back Office order views.
- PrestaShop native customization records for the configured parent product.
Compatibility and current status
- PrestaShop 1.7.0–1.7.8: supported with PHP 7.0–7.4, subject to the PHP range supported by the exact PrestaShop release.
- PrestaShop 8.x: supported with PHP 7.2.5–8.4, subject to the exact 8.x release. The public demo runs on PrestaShop 8.2.3.
- PrestaShop 9.0–9.1: supported with PHP 8.1–8.4.
PrestaShop 8 and 9 status: both current major versions are supported by module version 4.9.2. Back up files and database and test on staging before any production installation or upgrade, especially with custom themes or checkout modules.
Multistore and multilingual status
Multistore: limited compatibility. The module can run in a multistore installation, but its custom fields, options, option sets, and product assignments are stored by product ID and are not isolated per shop. Use it only when the same configurator data may be shared across shops; independent per-shop configurations are not currently supported.
Multilingual: partial compatibility. Module interface strings and bundled PDF documentation are supplied in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Polish. Merchant-created field, option, and option-set labels use one shared value rather than a separate translation per shop language.
Screenshots and live demo
The product gallery contains real storefront screenshots of the module on the Classic theme.

Data and external services
The module has no telemetry, license-server call, advertising tracker, cloud dependency, or other external API request.
It stores its settings, product assignments, customer-entered configuration values, selected option/add-on IDs, price impacts, and related cart/order IDs in the shop database and in PrestaShop native customization/order records. Depending on the fields a merchant creates, customer entries may contain personal data; the merchant remains responsible for privacy information and retention rules.
Uninstalling the module deletes its own configuration and database tables, including module-specific cart and order configuration records. Export or back up data that must be retained before uninstalling.
Troubleshooting
- Required fields are not validated: clear the PrestaShop cache, verify module hooks and confirm that the theme does not bypass the normal product and cart flow.
- A price surcharge is incorrect: isolate currency, tax context, combination and third-party pricing modules in staging.
- Configuration data is missing from the order: confirm that the configured parent product was added through the normal product-page flow.
For any error, preserve PrestaShop and PHP logs, document the exact steps and reproduce the behaviour without cache in staging.
