Re: Using zencart in Printing Site

Please provide MUCH MORE detail. I can't understand what you mean by:

"The client will provide the sizes and base on it the price will depend and also they will upload the image."

Do you mean YOUR client? Or do you mean customers visiting the webshop?

Who is uploading what image?

Please give a better explanation. It is not possible to give good advice based on what you have asked.

Re: Using zencart in Printing Site

Our client or the web shop customer will enter their desired size of the image (with regards to the width and height) plus the number of copies. Also the customer will upload the image to be printed.

What I want is to have the zencart process this things!

thanks

Re: Using zencart in Printing Site

The zencart should allow the customer to input sizes,no. of copies and upload image. then use the zencart checkout.

What I want to ask is how can I allow or have zencart use this type of pricing base on the size and no. of copies. and upload image

e.g.

width = 30 ft
height = 12 ft

no. of copies = 1

sample price is $100.

the pricing is somewhat dynamic based on the above computation.

Re: Using zencart in Printing Site

Zen does not have any built in function that will calculate pricing based upon entered values from the shopper. If you have standard sizes that the shopper can choose from a list, you could then price each size and Zen can then multiple the order quantity and price of the size ordered. You'd use the product attributes to do this.

Re: Using zencart in Printing Site

Someone developed a Length and Width "calculator" for attributes, I believe. It calculated cost on the resultant area.

Look for "length and width" and I'm sure you'll find the thread.
