Permutations not adding price in check out

[paulie555]

I find permutations the most frustrating part of actinic. I added quite a few some months ago, and thought I had it nailed. But just been adding some new products with permutations and same old problems.

I'm using them in extended info pages. Using a drop down menu the price in brackets doesn't display, so I chose radio buttons, then that was a pain sorting the layout into a neat column.

Anyway, after getting that sorted, it won't even add the price to the total.

Am I doing something dumb?

Here's a link:

Thanks in advance.

Select your product in the content tree. On the 'General' tab, under 'Component Details', ensure 'Sum of Product and Components Prices' is selected in the drop down list - just a thought.

Ah, so i was doing something dumb. lol. Hadn't expanded the panel. Thanks. Any ideas on the radio button layout?

ex:

product1: £100
product100: £1000

If the length of the permutation differs it pushes the radio buttons out of sync, so it looks like this:

As default, they will be set up as follows:

<table>
<tr><td>product1: £100/radio button</td></tr>
<tr><td>product10: £1000/radio button</td></tr>
<tr><td>product100: £10000/radio button</td></tr>
</table>

And as such, there are no defined widths or limits.

Open the 'Design' tab and click on the radio button, click the ^ arrow a couple of times, and then click the text 'Click here to edit list layout settings' - you can then define your own widths within the layout. I would be inclined to set them up so that:

<table>
<tr><td width="100">product1:</td><td>£100/radio button</td></tr>
<tr><td width="100">product10:</td><td>£1000/radio button</td></tr>
<tr><td width="100">product100:</td><td>£10000/radio button</td></tr>
</table>

This will effectively make the 'left' column (product1-100) have a fixed width, then the radio button and text will appear on the right, perfectly aligned.

As you can see, tables can in some ways be quite useful, but in many other ways, a heavy burden.

Cheers,
Grant

Many thanks Grant, I'll work my way through them that way.
