Product variants with different pricing...

[steveg]

Beginners problem!!
As an example, assume I want to sell a memory stick with different capacities - 64M, 128M & 256M. Each is a different price.
What I really want is one product - "Memory Stick" - which has no price, with a means of selecting 64, 128 or 256 each of which has a different total price. (And a variable quantity of each.)
I suspect it's to do with 'components', but I can't quite figure it out.
Do I need 3 seperate product lines which I somehow amalgamete?
Any suggestions greatfully received.
Thanks
Steve

If you still have the Demo Store (that's installed with Catalog) then look at the section "Select Items from a List" as this does exactly what you want. This uses the Quantity on Product page along with the Single Add to Cart Button per page.

Yes, I'd wondered anbout that, and I could use it, but it appears as a SECTION rather than a PRODUCT.
Not a stopper, but not as elegant!

It's really the only way to go if you want to have a quantity box against each variety.

There's nothing to stop you having more products on the page but you'll only have a single Add to Cart at the bottom not one per product.

You could add this code to the product template used for the final variety (or the main product, or a dummy product that follows the list) and it will then have a duplicate of the add to cart button that appears at the bottom of the page

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Add Selection To Cart" NAME="SINGLEADD">
