Sell products by decimal weight

[aftertaf]

Maybe this plugin might have helped you??

Which allows you to set a price per metre and the variants of length you wish to sell plus lots of other config options

Hi, it almost would have: the problem is that POSforWebshops has the same limitations, and its the main component in use right now. Ship does physical sales and needed a solution that was pragmatic and simple to implement.
That's why i ended up doing it the way i described.

Using the option Multiply the price *
Config: 1m,2m@*2,3m@*3
Gives prices of: 1m = Retail, 2m = Retail * 2, 3m = Retail * 3

-hacked the currencydisplay.php to have a new public function createPriceDivPerMetre

You can add your own PHP-File as helper to your Template and call public functions from there.

Thankyou. I didn't know that.

Could you briefly describe how to do this ?
I didn't find any docs and i'm not so good at experimenting in PHP..

new php file inside your template with content like this:

Code Select Expand


<?php
class myHelperClass {
    public static function myFunction() {
        return 'result';
    }
}
?>


inside your php template files:

Code Select Expand


if (!class_exists('myHelperClass')) require_once(JPATH_BASE.'/path to your helper file');

$result = myHelperClass::myFunction();
