Still can't sell tea per gram as a unit. Many reasons for that , but just briefly : Shipping 1g ( packing weight ) could be 50g if e-packet or 70g if e-espress ..coz bigger sticker , bigger box ( but same box will be for shipping 50g of small leaf or 25g large leaf or 100g or pressed tea ) . Should I set up 1g of tea = 51g of total weight, if someone orders 100g by clicking number 100 😉 ..not making any sense then. Let alone if I pack some fragile teaware and heavy tea bricks with that...shipping weight calculation is all over the place. ...means there is no any other way how to calculate total weigh because orders are way to complex and shipping rates are very variable ( we ship worldwide ) Other reason is , somebody can order like 1g or 4g of tea.. I'm not going to bother chipping off hard iron pressed puerh tea cake ( google it please if you want to know what is it about ) just for few grams , because there will be much more waste than tea in sample. I want to be able to sell ceratin amounts like 12g or 25g as sample, 200g or 357g is full cake .....etc. , not some like 17g or 264g or such. Loose leaf comes also with 25/50/100...up to 1kg iwth certain discounts on the way up ( but not all the time same ) . I have already module like that for last 7 years ( custom made ) but it doesn't work properly. It works after the check out ( means it takes out of the stock after order is proceed to end but not during the adding the stuff in basket ) . So if have only 200g of tea and somebody purchase 50g, then yes, it will reduce it down to 150g and next time the attribute 200g will be saying not in stock. But before that, still possible to order 600g ( as mentioned before ) and some people do ( they don't understand if shop says 200g in stock only 😉 ) , then I'm ending up writting an appology emals for misunderstanding ...basically bug in system. Like it's not very often , frankly many people understand what " stock " means , but I'm thinking of trasfering to newest PS version so just searching for the functional module like that ( the old one not working on new ps version anyway ) But thank you for reading my post and comming up with some suggestions. Should you be able to write such a module or know someone who can, please do not hesitate and contact me with quotation.

Thanks for respond, but this is not an option for me , because the prices per gram are different for individual attribute. 100g is cheaper than 2 x 50g, 1kg in one bag is way much cheaper than 10 x 10g packs . ..and so on. I also have a 357g puerh cake price and I offer 25g sample which is much higher price per gram as well ( because extra work , broken bits waste with that ....etc. ) There is no standard formula on how price per gram changes ( not in all cases at least ) , so I have to be able to set the prices on attributes without any restrain ( like freely without any rules / constants )

I sell tea and each product has pre-set atributes. For ex. 50g , 100g, 200g ..etc. The problem of an PS version is that it doesnt consider it as one item but like separate entities. So if I have 200g total of that particular tea, the customer should be able to order 4x50g or 2x 100g or 1x 200g. In reality it doesnt work that way because there is no way how to let PS know that all those 3 atributes ( 50g,100g,200g ) are same one thing. Means , I have to set quantity on each individual atribute and that cause customers can order 4x50g and 2x 100g and 1x 200g ..so this way put in basket 600g of tea . Is there any stock managment module where I will assign ( let the PS know ) that 50g is 50 units , 100g is 100 unints of some particular atribute and when I upload new product, I just type somewhere in that module stock 200g and customer will not be able order any more than that?

Thank You!

just a question , if I may. How do I stop any emails coming via customer service ( ContactCotroller.php ) ? Because I'm starting to receive spams again, this time without www or http , but just plain text with some various marketing offerings which I'm not interested. I don't use the customer service concept for emailing , so I don't need it at all. Means I don't mind to delete some file , module what needs to be done for that. Just if I delete ContactCotroller.php , some important functions don't work in back office, so might need to delete only some lines? Thanks a lot!

I completely forgot about that 😉 Thank you !

Visitor, Guest , Customer groups. I was wondering what else except Categories and Price ( discounts ) , shipping can be assigned to the individual groups? I'm specially interested into the front page ( visible ) , as I want to provide some additional functions and information text to the individual group. Like can I set CMS pages which would be visible only to Customers for example? Or can I turn on some additional module which can provide some pictures and text on front page only to Customers ( registered ) and not the visitors or guest? Thanks

thanks! I've applied that one. Will see within next couple of days if it works. Thanks again!

I don't want to use the customer service page , so neither the internal messenger of PS. Yet, I can not completely delete the controller because SEO & URL page ( url there ) can not be edited after ( getting blank page ). So I guess I need to edit the ContactCotroller.php Anybody can advise which lines in this script ( file ) I should exclude to avoid any messaging? Thank you!

Yep, removing controller altogether wasn't smart move. Messing up with other stuff in BO ;-( So I put it back. There is no 'www' in the script at all anywhere. there is only 1 http , but it's in $cm->user agent = $_SERVER ( 'HTTP_USER_AGENT'); so probably not the case. but thanks for trying to help

I've seen that one , thanks. But I'm not ready to pay this amount.

Yep, I've realized that after posting the question , so I deleted the controller as well. Thanks

I've deleted them but they all come from Russia I guess. I've seen that topic already some other place. I've sorted the problem. Thanks.

I'm getting spam emails via Contact Us page ( Webmaster / Customer service ) which I have deleted long time ago , so the URL doesn't exist at all. Before that , when using it , I had a captcha module implemented there. How come somebody can send the email trough the page which physically doesn't exist? Do they have some direct access to my DB in shop? How do I find that spam? Shouldn't that be flagged as the Security Issue ? Thanks.

thanks for explanation and recommendation. I don't think I would have a time to write ( or even copy-paste same template ) to all customers individually one by one. I also believe that if I do 100 email within on hour so, my provider's bot might evaluate it as my website is sending some spam emails and can get in trouble. Happened to me once. Thanks again.
