buy product by weight

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I've just had a look through the existing contributions and can't see one that would allow me to sell some products by weight. Imagine a fruit shop: I want to be able to sell apples individually but grapes by the 100g or whatever.

 

Anyone know of a contribution to do that or am I looking at building one?

 

Or have I missed a standard feature? I've used OSC a few times, I'm a professional developer but can't say I'm completely familiar with OSC so it's possible.

 

Cheers

The qty field is just a field, what it is used for is up to you. 100 can be 100 units, 100 kilos or 100 grams. Then you just set the wt filed accordingly

Aye, thanks, I guess that's what I was going to do, but it's a tad confusing. With, say, apples you could buy them by weight or individually. So people are going to have to read the description to know .. oh, this one's by weight, the last one was each, etc. Didn't seem very usable somehow.

 

So I think what I wanted was something that went along with the quantity field and said this '1' is each, whereas this '1' is 1 x 100g.
