diff. prices of several height-width-combinations

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.1.5


Hello,

I am quite new within hikashop and I have got an important question:
I would like to sell windows with hikashop and the price depends on the window-size (height and width).

How can I add these prices?
Can I add a kind of price table fpr example, which show the prices of each combination of height and width?
Working with variants (each width and height in mm) is a problem, because you get several thousand combinations...

What could be my solution?

THANK YOU SO MUCH

PS: Hope this is the correct forum-category...

Hi,
The solutions will be to :
1. Restrict your characteristics values and for example have for your width characteristics the values : [100 - 150] cm [150 - 200] cm
Or
2. Another solution can be to :
- Install and publish the plugin named "HikaShopCustom Quantity plugin"
- Create 2 custom fields from the "Item" table named "width" and "length" through "Hikashop->Display->Custom Fields->'New'" , and publish them for the front-end.

Thank you Mohamed!

Solution 1, doesn't work because those steps a tou rough. I need 1 cm-steps.
And sorry, I don't understand solutions 2. It creates new fields right? But what is this plugin doing, because creating new fields was possible without that plugin, too. Where is the calculation, that gives me prices for each combination of height and width?

I think i have to add an own price-table for each product. Where can i do that?

Thank you so much!


Edit: The plugin is shown in the joomla-plugins-section now, but not in hikashop-plugins (in system-configuration). Is that correct?

The plugin will only allow you to change the price of your product by using the value of your 2 custom fields :

$quantity = $quantity*$product->length*$product->width;

Thank you for your fast answer... I am sorry, but this plugin doesn't help. I think it is good for products like flooring, for which you have to calculate a size of an area in squaremeters for example.

I need it for windows. For example I have 4 prices:
One fpr...
-narrow and flat windows
-narrow and high windows
-wide and flat windows
-wide and high windows

I have to define that a narrow window is 100cm-150cm and a wide one is 151cm-200cm
and that a flat window is 70cm-90cm and a high one is 91cm-110cm.

Each combination has a speacial price, but I don't want to show the combinations as variants.
The user should enter a number for his own as height and width and hikashop then should check in a table the price for this combination.

Do you know what i mean? How can I do that?

THANK YOU!!!

Ni Nicolas,

just to be sure:
I don't consist of this plugin. This was your idea
For me any other solution would be fine!
Do you have any other idea to solve my problem?

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH
