Custom width, lenhgt, hight calculated price to sell Blocks

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.4
-- Joomla version -- : 3.6.5

I have the Idea to sell blocks of different Material and Colour where the Client can give his individual Dimensions on the product-page to calculate the price.

I tried your FAQ "How to sell products by Width and Length ?" with my old Hikashop 2.3.4. for testing it, but the Plugin dont do any work. Also tried all other "HikaShopCustom Quantity plugins" I could find here in Forum.

Is ist possible (for me) to do it with the newest Hikashop Version? Or is there an "Produkt-Konfigurator"-Extension to buy? Is there a sample Site where Items are sold by squaremeters ?

Thanks and regards

Hello,

Sure, did you correctly created 2 custom fields from the "Item" table named "width" and "length" through "Hikashop->Display->Custom Fields->'New'" , and published them for the front-end ?

Hi,

Yes, I did. See screenshots.

(I use this old shop to test this out. Hikashop is 2.3.4)

Hi,

Are you using the tax calculation override plugin and the donation plugin ?

If you have several plugins which can override the product price, only the first one will be able to work.
In HikaShop 2.3.4 ; these plugins are based on a override function and just one single plugin can use the function.

Regards,

Thanks so much.
I disabled the tax calculation override plugin and the donation plugin and the HikaShopCustom Quantity plugin works.
I'll try it out now.

Is there a 3-dimension Plugin for Hikashop 3 already available?

regards Hans

Hi,

No, but you could easily modify the code of the 2-dimension plugin to support 3-dimension and then create a third custom field.
Here is the line to change in the plugin:
$quantity = $quantity*$product->length*$product->width;
Even without being a coder, I suppose anyone could guess you would need to replace that by:
$quantity = $quantity*$product->length*$product->width*$product->height;
And that plugin is still compatible with HikaShop 3

Hi.

Its working.

And shure, I am not a coder and my english is bad, but there is user experience since DOS times and sometimes its easier to ask. Thank you again for your kind answers

I installed and enabled plugin, created custom fields, etc., tax and donation plugins are disabled, but still cant understand how this plugin works. What is the best way to sell products based on dimensions that user inputs? Hikashop should calculate price depending on calculated square meters or cm.

Hi,

Can you confirm that you used this plugin www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/151...h-length-plugin.html ?
If so, did you follow the setup instructions ?
If so, could you provide screenshots of each thing you setup (custom field options, plugin settings) ?
That should allow us to tell you what you're missing.
