Pricing Attribute Question

Greetings,

To set the context:
I am selling logs. They cost a base price ($3.50) then an additional amount per foot ($3.50). If they want the logs peeled (removing the bark) it cost $2.00 per foot.

What I have done:

  1. I created a product that has an product price of $3.5
  2. I created a Option name of Length
  3. I created Option Values of 1 feet, 2 feet, 3 feet, 4 feet, etc.
  4. In the attribute controller, I inserted the proper Option and Option Value (Length, 1 feet; Length, 2 feet; Length 3 feet, etc.) with the + price of 0 for 1 feet, $3.50 for 2 feet, $7.00 for 3 feet.)

And all that works just great. BTW: Great product!

Question:
So, how do I add $2 per foot for peeling the log? :blink:

If they order a 3 foot log, it should cost $3.50 base + $7.00 for the extra two fee. It does this. If they selected Peel, it should add an additional $6.00 ($2.00 per foot). So I am not sure how to do this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :clap:

Kind Regard,

-Taylor

Re: Pricing Attribute Question

What you are after (field verification) is not currently supported in Zencart. That's where the value inputted into one field influences the behaviour/content of another field

Ideally you want you customers to choose the log length... and when that's done, they choose if they want it peeled or not. You then want zencart to say... "This guy ordered a 3ft log and wants it peeled, so I need to multiply 3 X 2 to get the proper price...

Zencart cannot do this right now, so you may have to set up TWO attributes for length:-

  1. Unpeeled lengths.
  2. Peeled lengths.
