Title: Can you set a default cart variant (please select)
Post by: jimijbob on April 18, 2013, 21:25:31 PM
Hi all,
I don't know if this has been answered already or if I should post this elsewhere, but I am trying to configure my cart variant to do the following. I need my product to show no price or even £0.00, as it does at the moment, and only display the price when a cart variant is selected from the drop down list. Right now I have it part working, but I have had to use a default cart variant of 'Please select a roll size' (no additional charge shows after this which isn't ideal) and set the base price of the product to 0.00001 in order for the 'add to cart' button to show. Setting it to zero makes it disappear. Also when the price is at £0.00 I can still add it to the cart! Here is a screenshot.

Am I doing this all wrong? Is there a better way of achieving this? I'm at a loss as to why there would be no default 'Please select' value on the drop down list in the first place!

Many thanks for any pointers on this
