Unit Price Custom Field Liter / kg

[Lefteris]

Good Morning,

i Would like to know if there is possibility to have two values for the Unit price custom field. For example I have a site that sells Wines / delicatessen and i would like to show unter the price how much will the 1 liter or the 1 kilo costs. in case the product is 500ml or 200g. There is the possibility to use Language Override but you will have a default text for both Liter or KG. How can i set it, When i set in the Product Dimensions and Weight that the product Packaging for example is in Liter that it will show Price Pro Liter and when i have KG Price Pro Kg ? can i do that?


Joomla! 2.5.20 and vm2.0.26d.


Thanks in advance.

you would have to custom code it in your templates - they are after all just labels ...

any help with the code ? i'm a little bit newbie with all that

[GJC Web Design]

something like

if($this->product->product_weight){
  $unit = 'Kg';
}else{
$unit = 'Ltr';
}

echo $unit;

another question. where should i go to change the size of the product unit price text?

[GJC Web Design]

crystal ball gives me no reply - strange - normally works..

Just how would I know this?

[Lefteris]

i meant which file do i have to modify



the size of the  price pro liter / kg ( this is the Com_Virtuermart_Unitprice custom field ).

furthermore as i told you i am a newbie to that i may ask some stupid questions!

as consider the code for the kg / liter i wasnt able to do anything!


i have to edit the file in mytemplate/html/com_virtuemart/productdetails/default_showprices.php  yes?

Code Select Expand


echo $this->currency->createPriceDiv ('taxAmount', 'COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_TAX_AMOUNT', $this->product->prices);
$unitPriceDescription = JText::sprintf ('COM_VIRTUEMART_PRODUCT_UNITPRICE', JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_UNIT_SYMBOL_'.$this->product->product_unit));
echo $this->currency->createPriceDiv ('unitPrice', $unitPriceDescription, $this->product->prices);
echo '<span style="font-size: 12px;" > inkl. MwSt, zzgl.</span> <a style="font-size: 12px;" href="" <span>Versandkosten</span></a>';
}
?>

You should be able to use CSS to change the size of the price. Use Firebug to work it out.  http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=116620.0

in that file yes - I assume $unitPriceDescription is the variable

But honestly  - when it comes to specific info for your site - we have given you the general advice etc
If you haven't got the skills to do this then, like anyone, you need to employ someone who does..

If your car breaks down and you don't know how to fix it u get a mechanic .. live's like that .. why should building a website be any different?
