REQUEST: Module Price Per Square Inch

[Guest]

Hey everyone,

 

Looking for a module to calculate price based on user input of width and length in inches. We paid for E-Lance work but it is shoddy at best and are looking for a paid module. We don't need any fancy features, just something that gets the job done.

 

Thanks in advance,

This module is though to sell those type of goods http://www.alabazweb.com/en/prestashop-modules/21-sale-of-goods-by-modulus-m2-m3-linear-and-decimals-prestashop.html

 

Is a little expensive but it has a lot of options

 

 

Note for moderators: The prestashop thread is http://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/155333-modulo-de-venta-por-m2-m3-lineales-volumen-etc but I've only found it in spanish so let me send the english commercial link

Hello Roflmyeggo,

 

I think that a module for that is waste of money, at the same time that you gotta access the product configuration page to set the dimensions, you can calculate it manually and insert the product price.

However if you are interested on that a module, that can easily be created. Would need just a little bit of more details.

Hey enrique,

 

Yes I have seen that one however it seems a little overkill for what we need and is definitely on the expensive side. Plus I'm not a big fan of how it calculates and adds to cart, seems a little overkill.

 

Vitor, the only problem is that we want to offer custom dimensions and to offer that many combinations would be too cumbersome for the user to find the dimensions they want. This is for wallpaper so the range of dimensions is so large. Therefore I believe the best option is to use a module unless there is a method I am missing.

 

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys! I'm going to be checking out MEGs module as it looks very promising!

I find difficult to introduce the price "infinitesimal" variations into Prestashop price system. I've done a "Coverage calculator" (for paints or varnish coats for example)  before ,so to help the user know which variation adjust most to their requirements. You configure the proportion in the back office and the user introduces the area he needs in the front office to know how much they'll need. But it's merely an informative module.

In case you may want to do this by yourself and without module :

You can simply use Attributes (L*l) and Values(1,2,3 inches)

And then enter the price for each combination for the products
