eStore – variation on pricing question

[lerroy]

Hi, I have read the documentation:

http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/how-to-use-variation-control-in-wordpress-estore-plugin-345

Also searched the forum but not been able to find what i want

I have a photography website i want to able to sell physical prints from

I would like in variation 1(Print Type|Stretched Canvas|Rolled Canvas|Fine Art Print)

Stretched Canvas prints

Rolled canvas

Art prints

then have in second variation sizes (Print Size|12″ x 8″|24″ x 14″|40″ x 22″)

My issue is that stretched canvas is a different price to art print at the same size

for example

stretched canvas at 12″x8 is say $100

art print at 12x 8 is $50

can this be done with variation ?

i thought i could say have $0 for art print then in size add it till i get my total

Then in variation 1 canvas say add $50 to the prices however this doesn’t really work because the price differnece isnt constant for the size

[lerroy]

ok think i have a better way

will have three variation boxes..

eg

stretched canvas : small medium large

art print : small medium large

rolled canvas small medium large

all with prices that should work

[lerroy]

that way didnt work way to complicated for the end user and looks messy

any other ideas ?

test page is

[www.jlbphotos.com/shop]

[lerroy]

what i want is for the first variation to then effect the second

if they choose stretched they get a different price for each size than if they choose art print…if that makes sense

thanks for the link didnt really help though

im not selling digitial prints

im selling physical canvas / prints

This is what i want

first variation

choice of canvas or art print

second variation choice of sizes HOWEVER depending on the first choice this dislays different prices

if they choose canvas would be +50 if the choose art print would be +20 for the same size

Hi, Please tell me example prices for the following combination so I can try to give you a suitable solution:

Stretched Canvas at 12″ x 8″ = ?

Stretched Canvas at 24″ x 14″ = ?

Stretched Canvas at 40″ x 22″ = ?

Rolled Canvas at 12″ x 8″ = ?

Rolled Canvas at 24″ x 14″ = ?

Rolled Canvas at 40″ x 22″ = ?

Fine Art Print at 12″ x 8″ = ?

Fine Art Print at 24″ x 14″ = ?

Fine Art Print at 40″ x 22″ = ?

Thanks for the helping…and trying to interpret my post

Prices are below i these could be rounded up.

Stretched Canvas at 12″ x 8″ = 59

Stretched Canvas at 24″ x 14″ = 119

Stretched Canvas at 40″ x 22″ = 220

Rolled Canvas at 12″ x 8″ = 19

Rolled Canvas at 24″ x 14″ = 39

Rolled Canvas at 40″ x 22″ = 80

Fine Art Print at 12″ x 8″ = 19

Fine Art Print at 24″ x 14″ = 39

Fine Art Print at 40″ x 22″ = 80

How many of these image products do you have?

[lerroy]

only about 24

but i want to be able to swap around with different ones

[admin]

Okay thank you.

The price of your “Stretched Canvas” variation is totally on a different ratio than the other variations which makes this difficult. I believe the following should be less confusing and achievable (given you only have 24 products):

Create two eStore products for each of your image product:

1) One for the “Stretched Canvas” version

2) One for the others (Rolled and fine art)

Your stretched canvas version of the product will only have 1 variation like the following:

Stretched Canvas at 12″ x 8″ = 59

Stretched Canvas at 24″ x 14″ = 119

Stretched Canvas at 40″ x 22″ = 220

Your rolled and fine art version of the product will have the following variation:

Rolled Canvas at 12″ x 8″ = 19

Rolled Canvas at 24″ x 14″ = 39

Rolled Canvas at 40″ x 22″ = 80

Fine Art Print at 12″ x 8″ = 19

Fine Art Print at 24″ x 14″ = 39

Fine Art Print at 40″ x 22″ = 80

Place two eStore add to cart shortcode for the above two products on your landing page of the product. This will allow your users to purchase the variation that they want to purchase without getting confused.

Let me know if that helps.

Thank you for the help

E store doesn’t have the ability to do what i want ie look at variation choosen and then adjust the second variation ?

Also wouldnt doing this just add two products one for canvas one for art/rolled canvas ? please see my layout im using fancy 5 layout..

what i might do is have categories rolled canvas/art print/stretched then the only variation needed is the size. might be easier to display and navigate.

thanks again…

[lerroy]

Ok

im happy with the way i have it now..

Categories as above seem to be working great
