Dynamic Price Updater

[Chrome]

Hi Oli

I have to confess at being quite surprised, and very pleased, that that worked... I wrote it completely blind and couldn't test it

Glad it works though!

Works perfectly!

Might be good to package it up like that for download, as it's now the same format as the standard sideboxes etc.

Cheers mate!

Hi Dan

We've lost the IE javascript error but the price update is still not working when there is more than one attribute with a price difference.

http://www.prestigeringcompany.com/i...products_id=55
Only updates the price from the second of 2 priced attributes.

http://www.prestigeringcompany.com/i...roducts_id=137
Updates from the first and only priced attribute, of two attributes.

Hope you can help further with this.

Cheers,

Steve

Hi Steve

I think here that the type of attributes you are using are causing the Updater to get confused... It is really only effective when a base price is specified and every other attribute is an increase on that (this will give the attribute prices the format of, e.g., (+£100) rather than (£100))

The Updater is trying to change 2 base prices... I think this issue was first addressed when the Updater was in its infancy but it's something I wasn't able to resolve at that time... I'm not sure what I can do about it now but the Updater is a constant beta (always in development) so I will look into it

Let me know what you think

Cheers

Hi Dan

Ooooooh that's a blow. Due to the nature of the product ranges and the variable attributes, a base price is not what my client wants to use, but he also really wants the dynamic price updater. I have advised him of the situation and await his feedback to see if he is happy/prepared to restructure pricing or lose the dynamic price updater.

Do you feel with time you could achieve a resolution for the problem and if so is this likely to be in the near or distant future? I understand your time and effort is precious, therefore I have no problem in asking if a resolution could be achieved at a price?

Cheers,

Hi Steve

Unfortunately Updater plans for base price in this version doesn't look too good at the moment... I will keep the thread updated if anything arises though... I can say that there is no timescale currently

If you would like to discuss alternative options feel free to send me a PM on here or visit my site (http://chrome.me.uk) to contact me directly

Sorry I couldn't be more help at this time

Hi Dan,

I followed your instructions, but the price does not update when I choose a different option from the drop-down list. It does however, send the correct price to the shopping cart.

Thank you for helping me. If you have any other suggestions, I would appreciate it.

Hi Bill

You're quite right that doesn't work... Sorry about that... Such is the way of coding without being able to test! I'll take another look at this later as I have to head out just now

Hopefully I'll have a fix for you soon

Cheers

Hi Dan

The client is now going to restructure his pricing system with a base price, so hopefully all will be well from here.

Many thanks for your time.
