You should be using VM3.0.11 now, earlier versions are insecure - lots of things with customs have been updated since your old version. Test the update on a backup, of course.

Can anyone urgently help with this matter as the pricing vary depending on size and i'm unable to achieve this using string custom field.

Your help would be highly appreciated!

Thanks

Greetings GJC Web Design Team

i have tried the option stated on the link provided but with no luck nothing is displayed, however when i put Ontop on Layout Position, the fields apears but it doesn't change the values upon selection of the different values, my site is www.vplay.co.za/sybilm and i would like to put different inches with different prices.

I'm on VM 3.0.11 and i tried VM 3.0.10 and below but nothing seems to work!

Thanks
Mafa

your position must be 'addtocart'

Cart Attribute - yes
Cart Input - yes

at the moment the selects are not inside your addtocart form so will never work

if the position IS addtocart then your template must be at fault

Thank you very much, i have changed the template and the function works, but i want to use this conflicting template, how do i diagnose the problem within the template?

Use vm3.0.11, there is a fix for one type of customfields, maybe you stumble over that one.

just compare the files of the productdetails and sublayouts/product.php between the two templates

Hi GJC
Thank you for your input.
I'm not very inclined with coding, can you elaborate on what exactly should i be fixing between those two files?

Thank you in advance!
