Simple configurable product conflict with ajax add to cart (Magento)

I have a problem with my site being once you click on add to cart and select a custom option this sets the price to 0.00 it will add the product with the options but uses the lowest priced product instead of the one selected i have browsed for the last few days and think I’ve narrowed it down to another plugin AJAX Excellence i think conflicting with SCP i got my info from this link but have no idea what I’m looking for.
This problem doesnt happen if you go through the product description page only on the product listing pages which brings up a pop up of options to add to cart
Your help will be appreciated.

Can Magento be used as a CMS to build a product catalog(not a store currently but maybe in the future)

I have to build a website for a mobile store. They want to list their products but don't want to start selling yet. I have done a lot of website with Joomla and Virtuemart.
This time I want to use Magento as they use Lightspeed a POS that offers integration with Magento community edition.
My question is can I simply use Magento as a CMS to only display products and a few static pages like about us etc. I went through stackoverflow and found that some members have recommended some good blog integrations for magento so that part is solved(Thanks :-) ).
I know I can use wordpress as a blog with magento.
I rephrase....Can I use it to simply display products!
If Yes then please let me know if I am doing it for the right reason.
the reason are:
Adding products and product information becomes very easy in a
shopping cart(But in a CMS like Joomla each page has to be literally "designed" or I will have to use CCK editor. It still
becomes difficult for the client to update products IMO)
It comes with built in plugins to show related/featured products
etc. with a click on a button or options in the backend while client
simply puts the appropriate tags(With a CMS have to use a plugin or
module in Joomla that has to be set to show in the particular pages)
Automatic display of images etc is easier in Magento in comparison
to a CMS like Joomla where I will have to use a plugin or a gallery
that is set to show inside an article
The buy/add to cart button can easily be disabled and a "more info"
button can be added that will send an email to the client. They get
the exact product code the customer is asking for(Doing that in
Joomla would require a lot of extra stuff like adding codes or use
an advanced contact form with a tag to be entered for each page)
Last but not the least when client is ready to go online it can
easily be converted
Does Magento have two display? One is simply a catalog and the other a store. I have seen that in some stores online(not necessarily using magento) I am assuming either they created a website with the products pages first and then added a store later.
But in many cases it looks like a part of the Shopping application.(i just can't seem to remember which one they were using now).
If Magento allows that then I think my problem is solved. I simply use the "catalog option" and when the client is ready for the store I simply pull the products using a extension from their POS software.
Thank you for taking the time to read/answer.
Using Magento as a catalog only without selling the items is pretty straightforward. The easiest thing to do is just to use the catalog category lists to list the products and just make sure the "order" button is not visible.
You can do this simply by removing it from the product detail template (and the list/grid template in case they have it).
Or you could (I think) set all products to 'out of stock' this will automatically remove the 'order' button.
If you want to be thorough you should edit the cartControllers's addAction to disable adding products to the cart.
If you are going to combine Magento with Wordpress, Fishpig has developed a plugin with which you can use shortcode within Wordpress blogposts or/and pages to display products.
More info about that can be found here: http://fishpig.co.uk/wordpress-integration/docs/shortcodes.html
System > Configuration > Advanced > Advanced
Disable the modules you don't want to use.
For example, if you wanted to use Magento as catalog only then disable sales module.
Hope this works for you!

Custom layout update per site for one product

I have a multisite Magento running, and need to add a canonical URL for each product manually.
Since a product can be shown on different sites, each having different navigations, an since the custom layout update is [global], how can I get Magento to apply the custom layout update only if site/shop equals X?
I found the answer. I went to Catalog > manage attributes and set the custom_layout_update scope to store-view.

Magento 5 products on home page with all options

I want to build a shop using magento, but I will only have 5 products with all the options (size, quantity, colour and so on) on the home page, maybe some on has done something similar and could point me to the right direction?
P.S
I googled :)
Perhaps the easiest way to achieve this is to create a category with those 5 products and set is as the homepage of your webshop. You can find this option under System > Configuration > Web > Default Web URL.
So instead of using the default cms value, use the following value:
catalog/category/view/id/<your_category_id>
The category ID is visible on the category edit page in the admin.
Managing this page is just like you would normally treat your product list / category pages.
try to download the magento and install the demo store....
And u can use http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base this to aswer the basic.

magento store view

I have one main website with one store and 2 store views.
I have added the products to the store and hopefully it will be visible in 2 views.
But here only English pages have the products displayed and no products are displayed on German pages.
I would like to have the products and English pages to be on the German pages too with translation in the name and description.
Please let me know whether it is possible in Magento.
Looking forward for your replies as soon as possible as I am stuck upon my project.
This is out-the-box.
From the sounds of it you may want to consider putting together a test build of Magento and installing the demo products. The instructions for this are on the Magento site. The demo products will provide you with a reference on how multi view works.
