how to display few price fields for product in virtuemart - joomla

I need to add few price fields on product display in virtuemart, and check box near each price field
For example, when you buy this product, price depends on weight, and you need to select in check box
50ml
75ml
100ml
and near each checkbox, product price input field will be displayed.
How to realise this thing and is there any solution, that already done
Thanks, Ahmed.

You need to setup child (sub) products of your main product. This way you can have the description and images in the parent product and each child product will have an attribute and price associated with it. Have a google on "virtuemart setup child products" or something like that.

Reloading prices on product page when product option selected

On my product view page, I'm outputting the product price in a couple of places using the getPrice and getSpecialPrice methods.
Selecting a product option on a configurable product won't update these prices at the front end though, which saddens me.
Can anyone tell me how I do about making these values update when we select an option from the dropdown?
I would recommend that you do two separate methods binding them to a checklist box, one with the product price only (so that if the user selects it, it displays the face value of the product price) and the other one with example *x10% so that when the person checks it the product price will be decreased by 10% and store the temp new value so that you don't have it hard-coded.
Hope you get what I mean, my English is not so good

Configurable products for different product sizes and price

I am trying to make a store for car care chemicals in Magento for online buyers and company distributors.
Each chemical has a size option - 0.5 liters, 5 liters, 207 liters
And the above options have price difference depending upon the customer is a normal buyer or a distributor.
I have made a configurable product, but the price in the
"Super product attributes configuration" overrides the Group pricing in the simple products.
Can somebody please suggest the right way?
You have to create a attribute "size" as dropdown with all possible sizes.
When you add the product you have to choose one of them.
Magento will not take into the account the simple products' price of a configurable one. Simple products' prices are ignored. if you want to sell a simple product X having price $120 and a simple product B ($130) then set configurable product's price to $120 and add products you want to associate with this configurable product. After adding them click on 'Associated Products' tab which opens a block named Super product attributes configuration, which contains options and price differences and set the prices accordingly as described in attached image.
Moreover There's an extension that allows you to use simple product prices instead of price differences Since it's free extension. The extension is "Simple Configurable Products(SCP)".

Set associated product category different from configurable product

I have a configurable product which has a number of associated products, each of these is a simple product and determines the size of the product.
I want to add a number of the simple products to a new category "Sale", but this doesn't work unless I set the main configurable product as Sale too. But if I do that then all the sizes appears in the Sale category.
How can I make only specific sizes appear in the new Sale category?
I guess you're trying to promote those simple products in a special way, right? Maybe an product attribute would suit your need better.
However, if you have configured your simple products to not appear as single products in catalog, they will not do this of course. If you set your configurable products to the new category Sale it doesn't matter what the simple products have been assigned to, they will always appear.
What might help you, is to copy your configurable product, attach that one to Sale an associate only the simple products that should appear under sale.

Update magento price using custom attributes

I am a newbie to Magento Framework.
Can any one tell me how to add custom pricing to products based on custom attributes.
For example: I would not enter price or I will enter a dummy number for price in admin panel and other attributes like weight and type of item and category.
Based on the category, weight and type of item I want to calculate the actual price something
like price=weight*category+typeOfItem And also if there is any special price to the product it should also apply along with tier prices
I have created a custom module using Alan Storm's Blog but I am unable to override the pricing. Sometimes it works in the product listing page but never works with 'tier' price.
You might find it easier to use a configurable product for this, assuming you don't have a huge range of weights and products
Otherwise maybe look at overwriting the
getFinalPrice() method in the Mage_Catalog_Model_Product_Type_Price model.

Associated Product not showing the different price

I have just added a product and everything works fine. The product is a top with different attributes: size and color.
However I want to have reduced price on one of the different colors like in a sale, so I went into the associated products section and changed the price. However, whenever I go to the website and click on the color of the reduced price top, it still shows the original price and not the one I just changed.
How can I get it to show the price I changed it to?
Out of the box the only way to do this is via the price offsets for each configurable option under "Super product attributes configuration" as shown in the attached image:
Otherwise, you can use an extension such as Simple Configurable Products http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/simple-configurable-products.html
Go to system > Index Management and reindex Product Prices data
It sounds like you are using a configurable product with associated simple products. As far as I'm aware Magento only refreshes the product price for bundle product types.
I have seen a lot of people recommending this module.
