I have been attempting for many hours to create a product selection system, attempting with Options, Characteristics and Variants, but cannot achieve the desired result

Would like to have options on a pizza (with the listed additional charge) as follows:
No pepperoni ($0.00)
Pepperoni ($0.25)
Double pepperoni ($1.00)

Hi,
So using options like "no Pepperoni" for your products will do the job (note that you can group the "no Pepperoni" and "Pepperoni" option).
What are the problem that you are facing ?

So, the problem is that the customer can select both Pepperoni AND Double pepperoni. I have the two in two separate drop down menus as options (products added to the pizza as options)

I would like to have the options mutually exclusive so they can only pick one of the following:

No pepperoni ($0.00)
Pepperoni ($0.25)
Double pepperoni ($1.00)

In that case, you should have only one "option" product with three variants (no, simple and double), like the RAM example of our option documentation:

Thank you, it worked. I had read that help before and was very close before but I had missed one step.

I have a lot of options on a product and during checkout the cart displays all the options. They are double spaced so it makes the cart/page very long. Can I make this single spaced by editing the checkout cart view in Display>Views with some css? Or can I hide the options that were left on the default selection?

Hi,

You can probably use the following css property: Here is a tutorial for css customizations:

Fricano's, did you get the hikashop working ? I went to your webpage and it looks like you have abandoned trying to make it work ?

We did not abandon it, the ordering page is set to password protected until we go live next week or so, it is at www.fricanospizzaalpine.com/order-online

Almost everything that we needed to do has been accomplished with much time and frustration. However we have an incredible and nice system that we are very happy with.

I am unable to locate hikashop_cart_option_name in frontend_default or bootstrap
see image

We didn't need to add any CSS code for it so it's normal that you don't find it there.
But you can add it yourself if you need it. For example, you could add such code:
.hikashop_cart_option_name{
color: blue;
}

Where do I put the code?

It worked. I place .hikashop_cart_option_name { margin: 0px !important; } in frontend_default.css and now the spacing is no longer double. Thank you

Thanks for your feedback .

I live about 30 miles away, I might just have to place an order !

Maybe you can show me how to run this, I find this potential this component great, but its so frustrating to use and so complicated.

And all the literature just sucks..

I'm trying to set up a simple store, to sell a t-shirt, where I have to upcharge for XXL and XXXL sizes.. and I can't figure it out.

You probably have the commercial or business paid versions already, that is needed.

I think they updated the options/characteristics page listed above after my posts a week ago. it now makes sense. follow it step by step and it does work:

Options enable you to propose to your customers additional options for a product. For example, if you sell computers, you could ask your users whether they want more RAM, or a bigger Hard Drive Disk by paying a bit more. The total price is then updated in live so that the user can see the full price of the product + the options before adding the product with its options to his cart. Note that an option can only have ONE characteristic which will be displayed as dropdown on the main product page.
•Add button : You can add an option by clicking on this button. That will displayed a popup with the interface to browse your products, select them with the checkbox and click on OK to add them.
•Delete icon: You can delete an option by clicking on this icon.

Please note that those modifications will only be applied when you save the product. Options are only available in our commercial editions.

Before selecting an option in that interface, you will first have to create a new product (which you could put in an unpublished category if you don't want users to see it on products listings). After adding that product as an option to your main product, you will see a dropdown with 2 possibilities on the product page. If you need more or different options, you will have to add a characteristic to your option product allowing you to have one variant of the option product per choice on the dropdown. You can see such options on our demo website:

Let's take the example of the creation of the RAM option :

First, we made one characteristic called RAM quantity with the three values via the menu Products->Characteristics.

Second, we created one product option (like a normal product) that we called RAM and we added that characteristic to it.

Third, we clicked on the "manage variants" of that option product and set the name of each variant and its price.

Finally, we added the RAM option product as an option of the desktop computer product on the desktop computer edition screen.

Right.. but I have a t-shirt.. it comes in s-m-l-xl-2x-3x-4x-5x

smlxl are one price.. 3x & 2x are $2.95 more.. 4x and 5x are $4.95 more..

If I create a size option, then there is no way to set pricing on an individual size.

If I create a characteristics for 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x.. then customer can select more then one size per t-shirt.

Hi,

You have to set limits. In the products listing (backend) click on "Limit" in the toolbar.
Then create limits to restrict the purchase of only one tee-shirt.

In your case you better have to use the limits with the characteristics.
