attribute pricing

[liveaday]

i am trying to set up a drug store. i need one product page with the following pricing :

############ pills
------------
packet of 4 x 100 mg -- $60
packet of 8 x 50mg -- $70

i have set up option names and values pairs and added the attributes to my product as radio buttons. i set the price to 0 and set the attribute prices to 60 and 70.

-if i set the price by attributes option, whatever attribute i choose (even if i select the 70) the price is always set to 60 in the cart (cheapest)!!
-if i dont set the price by attributes option the cart price is set correctly to the price of the attribute i chose but then i get the problem of not having a price in the window title bar and 'Starting at:' line

what can i do to display the a price but also set the right price in the cart based on the attribute chosen?

Priced by Attribute ON means ...

Take the lowest possible prices from each Option Name group and combine them together to form the lowest possible price in which a Product can be purchased ...

Unless your Product has to be priced this way ... set that OFF

i have it set to OFF and my cart works fine but as i said above my problem now is that the price in the IE title bar is $0.00 (in product page) and also the 'Starting at: ' is blank. what can i do to either display the lowest price there or if i cant show some price to ommit the price completely from title and 'starting at:' line.

If you want the lowest price displayed built from the Attributes ... then turn Attributes Pricing ON ...

Maybe posting an URL to your site for a Product like this would better explain what you think you are trying to do and why this isn't working for you ...

i have the price by attribute OFF

my problem is that no price is showing in IE window title bar and also no price showing following 'Starting at:'

if i set the price by attribute ON then even if i select the 8 x 100mg the price charged is $50 instead of $60 in shopping cart

Turn on Price by Attribute ...

Edit the Attribute for the wrong price and set Include in base Price to NO ...

i followed ur instructions and the cart seems to be working ok now with price by attribute set to ON. my only problem now is that the title bar price is 0.00 and next to 'Starting at:' is blank

I have not been able to replicate this ...

If I have a Product that is Priced by Attribute and 3 Option Values priced:

Red $10.00
Yellow $15.00
Green $20.00

The Title bar shows the $10.00 ...

If I turn off the Include in base price on red, then the title bar changes to $15.00

Check that you have all of the current files loaded to your site ...

What happens if you change to Classic template ... does this correct the problem?

[liveaday]

got it! i had all Include in base price to OFF. from ur post i gathered that i needed to have the cheapest on to ON

[Ajeh]

Actually, you can have them all on as the cheapest is the one that will be used ...

The override on there is for it you need to force a different combo on the building of the display price for some reason ...
