Pricing Problem With Choices

[jsbabineau]

I have some items that are the same but sold in different sizes. So I don't want to list all sizes seperately. I thought I would put in the one item and have a drop down of the choices for different sizes. Here is what I did.

Created a product.
Attached a component to the product.
Attached an attribute to the component.
Attached the choices to the attribute.
Opened product and chose "sum of components prices"
Opened component and "filled permutation box"

The item comes up good but when you add a choice to the cart, no price shows up.

Thanks,
Jim

Did you fill prices in the permutations??

[jsbabineau]

Yes, all the prices are in there.

[TraceyHand]

Ok
In the permutations tab, did you select to 'override' the price?

What pricing model did you set for the product, it needs to be one of the options that includes component prices.

I had this problem but it sounds like you have everything right. On the layout tab of the component, have you got 'component layout with selectable permutations' selected?

[jsbabineau]

I've tried all suggestions, still doesn't work. My pricing works if I use radio buttons but not the drop down. Does that info help?

[Greenmind]

When using the drop down layout, do you have 'basic price' or 'basic price in brackets' selected where it says 'permutation' on the layout tab of the component?

[jsbabineau]

Basic Price

Have you 'fiddled' with any layouts on the design tab?

[jsbabineau]

No, I never use the design tab area.

Jim, do you have a link to a page where this isn't working correctly?

Here's a sample of your code from your drop down

<option value="5">
   
	   11" Coater SC-11 $13.95
   
   
   
   (+$13.95)

 
</option>

This is a bit of mine (that does work)

<option value="5"> 

160mm 

£9.24

</option>

You must have the 'additional price' layout selected, and you have the price written into the choice, so it's listing twice.


As for the problem itself, I don't know. I'm no expert I'm afraid.

I don't think the 'additional price in brackets' layout is going to work without a standard product price. Try ''basic price' layout.
