I've now solved my problem using pricing-by-attributes:

Thanks for your comments, DrByte and jgh42.
OK, I finally found a quick, clear summary of how to do this, on Youtube:

video lets you see the necessary steps in their proper order. Highly...
I was considering pay-what-you-want as a possible alternative to pricing-by-attributes - either would be a way to add more control to what the user must enter on their credit card.
OK, I am guessing now that a dropdown might be a better type of option than a checkbox. My idea is to make a product with a dropdown. The dropdown would have two values, 'commercial' and...
I don't understand how I might write custom code. The price has to propagate into the credit card module for the user's card to be charged properly.
Looking at your custom project, where would I...
I am attempting to add prcing by attributes. I have a software product, let's say it costs $1.20, and I want to offer an educational discount of -$0.40, ie it's only $0.80 to edu users. Would like to...
DrByte, thank you for replying. I had spotted that article, but it seems somewhat awkward to ask a user to buy some large number of $1 items to set the price. Was hoping for a way to bring up a...
I am finding pricing-by-attributes to be very difficult and obscure to set up; apologies to those of you who have written how-to's on that. Since I will have to look at and approve each purchase, and...
stevesh,
Thanks for your suggestion. As it happens, I finally found my links - they were farther down the page than I was looking. Image map coordinates are relative to the image, not the top of...
I am trying to add a clickable image map to the zencart page, following an html template that already works for other parts of my site. I place it in tpl_header.php in...
Sorry, two posts ago should read "If I then add tpl_footer...". It's the footer that makes the bottom matter vanish.
I should have said: in the previous post, tpl_footer is the only file in barebones/common, I deleted the tpl_header.
Futher observations: at one point I lost the entire page, even when the main, header and footer files in barebones/common were renamed to e.g. 1.tpl_header.php. Blank grey screen. Does zencart see...
It's in (((store)))/includes/templates/barebones/common
I did a diff -wis of the original and modified footers:
24a25
> <h3>xping_tpl_footer_1</h3>
38c39
<
---
> <h3>xping_tpl_footer_2</h3>...
Also, a similar set of changes produced visible results in tpl_header.
Here's my tpl_footer. The only changes are the <h3>xping*</h3> lines added, looking for where they might show up:
<?php
/**
* Common Template - tpl_footer.php
*
* this file can be copied to...
Actually, I want to turn the banners off - sorry if I misled you.
I want to put an image, with links I control, either above or below the existing HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE. That I can put text links in...
Experimenting with tpl_header, I can put my little strings at a number of places above the second "Home" link to the main screen and the "Welcome..." message. However, making similar changes to the...
Hmm, this looks like it might be what I have in mind:

gjh42, thanks for replying. In tpl_main_page, I make the change below line 58 (where this snippet starts at line 53):
<body id="<?php echo $body_id . 'Body'; ?>"<?php if($zv_onload !='') echo '...
Aha, thank you. Putting the tpl_header.php file into the "common" subdirectory makes my little code bit display. However, placing tpl_main.php there too does not display anything.
I do have a...
I'm trying and failing to customize the Zencart interface a bit more than the template system seems to allow. I hope I'm just missing something.
I created a CUSTOM folder (not using that exact...
I now have a functioning store and admin setup. I find that reading the (mystore)/docs/1.readme_installation.html document would have been, for me, the best checklist for installation.
Thank you,...
Ah. The ftp was taking a long time (numerous retries for some reason) so I tried the tar method. Me and my bright ideas. Will go back to ftp of the individual files.
Looks like this will do it....
I mean 744, not 755
Aha, chmod 755 for all files under /admin did the trick; I now see the "Hello. Thank you for loading Zen Cart" page. But I still don't know why I got those odd permissions to begin with. That's...
I tried with the /admin both renamed and not renamed. Just to be clear, is the correct sequence:
upload files
change permissions
rename the two dist-configure.php's to configure.php
change...
I have an installation problem. Several months ago I successfully installed zen-cart 1.5.0 on my Dreamhost domain. I am now trying to install on a second domain, one I use for test purposes.
I...
Thank you!
Problem solved. I renamed my root .htaccess file to a backup, and the installation ran to completion. Have now renamed it back to .htaccess, to restrict access during zencart setup.
A little more, after looking at some existing forum threads. Here are the existing .htaccess files under the install root:
find . -name \.htaccess -print
./media/.htaccess
./email/.htaccess...
Am installing v1.5.0 on Dreamhost. Just got to the system Inspection page, ie ...zc_install/index.php?main_page=inspect. All green checkmarks except for one yellow "!" about "Apache .htaccess Support...
Hmm. Selection of Dreamhost happened before I got involved. Could you expand a little on your "never could run it securely on their servers anyway" comment? I might need to explain this to our site...
Hmm. Well, I am switching to a direct 1.5.0 install from zencart itself. Thanks, both of you.
I changed the relevant password fields at Authorize.net on Friday, as soon as you mentioned the possibility of hacking. I have deleted that entire zencart installation, and am proceeding with a 1.5.0...
Gateway mode is set to "offsite", yes. Hmm, if hacked, then potentially someone has my userid and password for that zencart - unique to the installation, fortunately. Also the info for our auth.net...
Am trying to set up a Zen Cart installation I inherited from someone else. The authorize.net account exists and is active. Zen Cart is v1.3.8p3, installed about 2 years ago. The various authorize.net...
My first post here; apologies if this question is answered elsewhere - I don't find it, if so. Am installing Zen Cart on a Dreamhost account. They have a one-click installer, but it installs version...
