Hi Nicolas.

Please would you provide detailed steps on adding the per kg? I am not proficient with Hikashop or php and am currently testing it for a client who wants to sell meat and items online. The product needs to reflect "per kg" or "per item" and the price should be worked out automatically per weight.
Thanks. Morris

Hello,

You should :

- Go to "Hikashop->System->Configuration->Display"
- Set the "Display the cost per unit weight" Option to YES
- Save

Hope this will help you.

Thanks, but that does not seem to work. Please see westcoastdeli.co.za . The idea is that it will show the price per kg for each product as well as show per kg and not each. What am I missing?

If you don't see a price per weight, please make sure that your products have a weight and a price configured, and that you don't have any cache activated on your website.

If you want to change the "each" text to "per kg" you can use a translation override:

Hi.

When I change the "each" to "Per Kg" it changes it for all products. Some products nead "each", some products need "Per Item" and some products need "Per Kg". I though this would be built into the website code so it can be set per product. Also, the ability to be able to order half a kilogram and the price be worked out automatically.

I checked again and I do have the weight and a price configured, please see the attachment.
I do appreciate the feedback though.

Then you want to do a modification of the view and add a custom field in order to select the "per" that you want to use. It's explained in the section "I sell packed products, how can I change "each" text in the product page ?" of the FAQ:

The shop being in maintenance I couldn't look at the products pages for the price per unit issue.

Hi.
Thanks for the reply but this cannot be done in the starter edition. We cannot buy the business edition until we have completed a proof of concept.

Thanks, Morris
