product attributes issue!

[hashi]

Hi All,

 

I have a problem when adding product attributes and calculating price based on that. For an example assume that I sell wine bottles. Therefore i have bottles of 250ml, 500ml and 1000ml. But I sell pack of bottles as cases and don't sell bottles separately. So I have bottle pack for 25pack, 50 pack and 100pack (but for some wine products I have only 100 pack). So I would like to display this in an easy way for the customer to order what he wants. I thought of adding as two select menus.

 

1st menu - liquid amount (250ml, 500ml and 1000ml)

 

2nd menu - packs (25pack, 50 pack and 100pack)

 

ex:- assuming that 250 ml costs $10, selecting 100 pack would cost 10 x100 = $1000

 

Also the other reason is that, some liquid amounts (250ml, 500ml and 1000ml) sells only 25 pack. Therefore I need to disable 50 pack and 100pack for some products.

 

Please help me to get out of this issue.

 

Thanks a lot.

I would imaging it should work as such:

 

Option Name:

250ml

 

Option Value:

25 pack

add another to the opion name of 50 pack

100, etc.

 

Insert Attribute:

Your product>

Option Name 250ml

Option Value 25 pack

Set Price then insert.

 

Do again with your next attribute (50 pack).

 

Do that with all of your option and values.

Just leave out the option value for the pack sizes you do not carry for the specific volume.

 

That will have the following effect by the way:

 

Available Options:

250ml > DROP DOWN BOX

-50 pack (PRICE)

-100 pack (PRICE)

 

500ml > -25 pack (PRICE)

-50 pack (PRICE)

-100 pack (PRICE)

 

[NOTE:]

Be sure to check out all the attribute contributions as there are some I am sure you will find handy like the one similar to what you seen on the page you linked above. As well as attribute contributions, and changes to the search function to allow your visitors to search attributes.
