Multiple choice listings

Can anybody point us in right direction for multiple list purchase options?

An example of this we found (not Zen Cart as far as we can tell) is:

http://www.arco.co.uk/products/1870700/16236/Hi-Vis%20Coat%20Yellow

Where there is a clear, concise table of size options, linked with product and price (and offer price) for clothing.

Need something similar for a trade shop outlet... Have looked on forums, but cannot see any relevant subjects / plug in recommendations.

Running on 1.3.8, soon to upgrade to next level.

Re: Multiple choice listings

Zencart can't do separate model numbers by attribute in the current version.

Not sure if i am reading this right......as per :dontgetit

If i have 1 item (set price of say £0) with 4 options (ea would be £25) that you can purchase 1 or more of at the same time cannot be achieved then??
It gets worse as i was hoping to give discount on purchase of all 4 items. I have been looking at the attribute pages but not sure it will do it either.

cheers

Re: Multiple choice listings

I have now got my check-boxes in place and i can add multiple qty at once, i have a discount set of 4 items (multi choice) and it shows in the discount box as being set-up, but i get all the way through checkout and i get no discount, have i missed a setting somewhere please?

Re: Multiple choice listings

Not sure exactly what you're saying, but if I add 10 of 1870704 in the quantity box, I get 10 in the basket with a total of 260.40, which seems right. Obviuosly, I can't go through checkout, so I don't know what may be happening downstream.

BTW, the popup dialog boxes announcing items added to cart and requesting login - very annoying. Zencart's built-in functions for those work fine.

Man i am confused here, if i add 4 separate attribute items @£25 ea i get £100, but what i want is if you buy 4 (mixed as it is set in attributes) it should be £80, if i buy 4 x 4 items the discount works which is not what i want, so close but no cigar :-(

As for the popup i am lost, 2 pc,s here and we both purchased items without being logged in, we got to checkout but we never saw this popup box, can you help here with what might be happening for you to see and not me

thanks for help and reply

Re: Multiple choice listings

Sorry, I thought the site you referenced in your original post was your site. We'll need a link to your site to help. If it's the sighthounds site, give us a link to a product with the attributes you're talking about.

Re: Multiple choice listings

Looks like you have worked it out. You would need to use the quantity discount system. If you do work something out it is nice to post that on the forum so that other people can see it.

Re: Multiple choice listings

I sorry but that is not the case, i have not worked it out, as per above
" if i add 4 separate attribute items @£25 ea i get £100, but what i want is if you buy 4 (mixed as it is set in attributes) it should be £80, if i buy 4 x 4 items the discount works which is not what i want"

so it does not work how i expected, if i had worked it out i do reply to threads.
