Options showing up as individual products in cart

I'm attempting to make an 'a la carte' product for my client who is a granola maker wherein customers can order a bulk amount of granola and select the ingredients they would like to add. Each individual ingredient will cost the customer an extra dollar. I figured that options were my best bet but am having a hell of time getting it to work correctly.

I have variants for each option product "with" and "without".

"with" = 1.00
"without" = 0

it all adds up fine on the product page but when I add to cart all of the options show up as clickable products. I have them in a hidden category and they show up.. I have a screen shot of what I'm talking about. I've looked at the demo page and sa that the options are in the mini cart on there but aren't clickable. What did I do wrong this time?

Thanks,

Uncle Twisty.

I can't seem to find it? Do I need to upgrade?

I've updated hikashop and now I can't get the options to add to the total price. I've tried many things:

for instance: adding options with yes / no characteristics, yes being valued at +1.00 and no being 0

i then found this thread: www.hikashop.com/forum/4-how-to/19448-mi...oduct-option-labels/

in which i found this quote:

Hi,

With the latest version of HikaShop 1.5.4, it's more simple than that.

You can just create a normal product for your option, without characteristics, and add it to your product. Then, the yes/no choice will be done automatically and the no option won't add the option to the cart.

after which I attempted this: adding an option with a price of 1.00 for say cranberries. so that when cranberries were added it should add 1.00.

This still didn't work instead it shows up like this:

Ok, So I wasn't sure that I change the show view file, so I reverted it to the original, I dont know why there would be a javascript error, but I'm still having the same issue..

basically it is not adding the price of the option.

I can't give you a link to the page because I can't leave this product published until this issue is fixed.

so I've placed the product in a hidden category so people can't buy it.

the options are cranberries and apples, both set at $1 each, but you'll see that it does not appear that way.

thanks.
