    Default Settings up Product Attribute

    I have a jewelry store. There are some items that have set up Attributes for size for ex: 6mm, 8mm. 10mm. I have it showing the size and selected a default size.

    I have several issues:
    1- If the customer selects multiple sizes 6mm, 8mm, 10mm how can I have it add all three items to the cart, and total the price? ex: all size are $30. If the user adds 6mm 8mm and 10mm Right now it adds the one item to cart for $30 and shows all 3 sizes? It should have been $90.
    2- For Number #1, if I have to set the main product as $0, and just add a price the each attribute, how can I run a sale? Right now if I am running 15%off it will not show it on the attribute price.

    3-When I have multiple attribute for an item in the store, how can I set it up that the user has to have an attribute[ring size] selected? Right now it appears as if I can deselect every attribute (6mm, 8mm, 10mm)

    Thanks in advance

    Add an additional item to the list such as please select one of the following, then as an attribute in the attribute controller set it as for display only. This will force the need for at least one attribute to be selected.

    If not mistaken, I thought there was a way to add each of the selected attributes together such as price by attribute, and assigning each attribute with a dollar amount. (Each $3), otherwise I would make it so that only one attribute could be chosen and add one of each type of item to total the cart out.

    I believe there is an addon or two that would address the sale price of an attribute. Otherwise, not sure what the easy options are for sales on attributes.

    What style attribute(s) are you using? Sitelink?

    1 - change products to priced by attribute, ensure each attribute has a value for each option value you add

    2 - install Twitch SaleMaker & Specials for Attributes

    3 - Admin -> Catalog -> Product Type -> PRODUCT Attribute Price is Required - Yes
    or
    - Set the first attribute to 'default' in the Attributes Controller
    Twitch.

    You need to make sure that you include a default attribute that is read only:

    there are the Attribute Flags in the colored boxes.
    These are used to help distinguish other features of the attribute such as:

    • Use for display only (attribute cannot be selected and added to cart. Good for things like "Select from Below" to force the customer to make their own choice and not just hit Add to Cart and get a pink snail instead of a blue snail.

    I have tried the above and so far nothing has worked. Added Twitch and that made a mess of my template [text was un-readable, and no new change were added to the admin].

    I still have the problem that the picking of the ring sizes will not show the discounted price, and I still can't stop someone from not picking anything.

    This is the one item I am testing.

    If anyone has any other ideas.

    Change from a checkbox to a dropdown or maybe a radio selection to start.

    Because you want to be able to purchase 1 - 3 sizes at the same time but show the $30.00 as the starting price or a Special Price of $25.50, you need to configure this with one of the Attribute Prices to be used for the Price by Attribute ...

    For example, if you set the Attribute on the 6mm to have the:
    Include in Base Price
    When Priced by Attributes YES
    and the other sizes to NO then you will see the Display Price as $30.00 ...

    If you put the Product on Special for 15% off, you will see the Display Price as:
    Starting at: $30.00 $25.50
    Save: 15% off
    with the $30.00 crossed out and the Attributes should each show as: $25.50 ...

    There may need to be some code changes to support the layout/checkbox style you are using to get the twitch module to display correctly in the configuration you're attempting to use with your current template.

    What happens when you change to radio button as mc12345678 suggested?
