Get All simple product from a Configurable Product in Magento Product View

Question

How can I get all the simple products associated with a configurable product? I found how to do the opposite (get a product configurable from a simple product) but that\'s not w

Answer 1

Use this below code

Code to get the the full product information (where 3 is the configurable product Id)

$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load(3); 
$childProducts = Mage::getModel('catalog/product_type_configurable')
                    ->getUsedProducts(null,$product);

foreach($childProducts as $child) {
    print_r($child->getName());  // You can use any of the magic get functions on this object to get the value
}

Another code to get the Children Product Ids

$childProducts = Mage::getModel('catalog/product_type_configurable')
                    ->getChildrenIds(3);

Hope this helps!!
