How to get cart items id except configurable product

Question

I have add a configure product in magento store which has associated products( simple and downloaded both) in admin. From frontend I add simple associated product in cart and get cart items information using following code:

$cart_items = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getAllItems();
foreach( $cart_items as $items )
{
   $items->getProductId();
}

At this time there is only one product in cart ( simple associated product ) but above code return id "95" and "96" where 95 for configurable product and 96 for simple associated product.

How to get only simple associated product id?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You can also use $items->getParentItemId() to distinguish between children and parent items.

Parent items have a zero-value parent item id.

Inserting a configured product in cart will result in a parent quote item (referring to the configurable product) plus a child quote item (referring to the simple product which represents the user choice).

Hope it helps.

Kind regards, Alessandro

Answer 2

When you invoke getAllItems(), it returns all quote items (parents and children). If you want just the items added (Magento adds the parent product when you add a child product) and shown in your cart, you need getAllVisibleItems().

$cart_items = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getAllVisibleItems();

This will return just the simple product you're looking for.

Answer 3

$cart_items = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getAllItems();
foreach( $cart_items as $items )
{
     if($itemts->getTypeId() != 'configurable')
     {
            $items->getProductId();
      }
}

the above should resolve your issue for you
