Hi,

I'm using the Products module with ProductsByVendor and the other required modules. It's working well but I need to be able to add multiple products with the same name -- ie 2 of my vendors can both have a 't-shirt' item but I can't create this (error message that item with that name already exists). I think the items are distinguished by an ID # (or SKU) so there shouldn't be a technical issue here.

Anyone have any ideas on a solution or workaround here?

Thanks!

Short of a change to the module code, I think the only thing you could do would be to add a "Display Name" field or similar. You could set your templates to display that name if it exists, and default to the regular name field if it doesn't.
