Adding a price per day on Product Category

Hello,

In my store I have a root product category called rentals. I would like the products in this rental category to have their price listed as price per day or per week. For e.g. http://incfilms.net/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_2&products_id=2

On this product the red font says $100. Is it possible to make it say $100 per Day (or $100 per Week for other items) instead of just $100?

Im assuming I need to make different PRODUCT TYPES. Like a Rental Per Day product type, and a Rental per Week product type, and then do some modifying from there, but I'm not sure where to go from there or if thats even the right move.

Thank you for your help.

Re: Adding a price per day on Product Category

Do it with attributes

Option name = term
Option values Day & Week
Price by attributes

Re: Adding a price per day on Product Category

hey mate,

I appreciate you getting back to me about my ($100 per day) question, but if you wouldnt mind helping me out a little bit.

I went to option names, but I couldnt find anything that's called option = term, or something to that effect. Would you mind running me through the process?

Thanks for your help

Re: Adding a price per day on Product Category

I'm sorry, I have read the tutorials and messed with this thing for hours. I simply can not change $100 to $100 per day. Do I have to mess with the CSS scripts? Or do you mind giving slightly more detailed instructions? I have option names and values in there, but all I can ever get it to do is say "Please chose:"

Thanks

Re: Adding a price per day on Product Category

In the product setup do not enter a price - instead select priced by attributes

In the option name manager yoe enter in the "en" box term and select drop down or radio button

In the option value manager select term from the drop and enter One day give it a sort order of 10

Again
In the option value manager select term from the drop and enter One Week give it a sort order of 20

In the attribute controller select the cat & product and select term and the one day - - enter the price - - insert

In the attribute controller select the cat & product and select term and the one week - - enter the price - - insert

See example **HERE**

Re: Adding a price per day on Product Category

I believe there was a slight miscommunication. You see how your example says "Starting at: $1"? I wan't mine to say "$1 Per Day" kind of thing. You know what I mean?
