TOPIC:

I purchased recently your excellent plugin for VirtueMart. I have a question which is not exactly a programming problem, namely I cannot understand the difference between Articles and Quantity. In all the code I wrote they seem to be interchangeable. I have been unable to locate a definition in your documentation. Can you please provide definitions/explanations and an example of code where they are both used in the same line with different functionality?
Merry Christmas.

Dear Panskal,
Your observation is absolutely correct: There is no difference between Articles and Quantity. Originally, we only had the Articles variable, but some customers always confused that with the number of products, so we added the Quantity variable, which is always set to the same value as the Articles variable. For backwards compatibility, we still keep the Articles variable around (actually, I always use Articles myself).

Best regards,
Reinhold
