Attribute Price to Appear in Shopping Cart

[xtreme-exhibits]

How can I accomplish this?

I need to start with a base pice of lets say $600. Then allow the customer to add on options such as an upgraded case for $300 and some fabric or graphics for another $600.

I set up the attributes fine and can get the proper price to appear in the shopping cart. HOWEVER, its quite a shocker for the customer to start with a product that only cost them $600 and end up with a shopping cart with a total of $1500. I'd like to have the shopping cart show how much each of the attributes they selected cost and how we arrived at the end total.

This way they don't have to hit the back button to re-calculate their spending and the totals.

Your help is sincerely appreciated!

You would have to re-write the whole section of the shopping cart to display these amounts ...

This can get rather complex in changing the way the display works ...

While it is not impossible, it could be done ... just a lot of work ...

You might want to have a look in our downloads section for the Javascript price updater.

you got a specific download in mind? i can't seem to find any that do that...

it's frustrating, it seems like something that more people - if not everyone - would want!

anyone got any other ideas? i have to have this feature in my site!

thanks, ricky

This was a long time ago, but it's top of google for "zen cart itemize attributes", so I'll give a fix here to save people the trouble:

tpl_shopping_cart_default.php

Comment out:

<li><?php echo $value['products_options_name'] . TEXT_OPTION_DIVIDER . nl2br($value['products_options_values_name']); ?></li>

and insert this:

if((int)$value['options_values_price']){ $price=money_format('%i', $value['options_values_price'] ); }
if($price){ $display_price=" (".$value['price_prefix'] . " $" . $price . ")"; }
echo '<li>' . $value['products_options_name'] . TEXT_OPTION_DIVIDER . nl2br($value['products_options_values_name']) . $display_price . '</li>';

on includes/classes/order.php, comment out:

$this->products_ordered_attributes .= "\n\t" . $attributes_values->fields['products_options_name'] . ' ' . zen_decode_specialchars($this->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['value']);

and insert this:

if((int)$this->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['price']){
    $price=money_format('%i',$this->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['price']);
    $display_price=" (".$this->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['prefix'] . " $" . $price . ")"; 
}
$this->products_ordered_attributes .= "\n\t" . $attributes_values->fields['products_options_name'] . ' ' . zen_decode_specialchars($this->products[$i]['attributes'][$j]['value'] . $display_price);

Thanks sitehatchery!

That was a really cool and useful answer that I learned something from!

Thanks!

Thank you sitehatchery for the code!

It does insert the attribute prices, but it appears to insert even if the selected attribute does not have a price associated with it.

That is, my regular t-shirt that costs $10 also shows the additional $2.00 that is charged on the x-large. Though, the total price is correct.

Not sure if I made the error here, or if it is supposed to work this way and just isn't ideal for my situation....?

[sitehatchery]

I should have initialized $display_price and $price before the code was executed:

$display_price='';
$price='';

It worked, thanks again!
