How about setting up variations as follows:
variation 1 – qty 1
variation 2 – set qty * 1
variation 3 – set qty * 2
etc
Then set up a little jquery to always protect the qty 1 1st variation when displaying the product price. I believe this should show the single unit base price throughout the system as the ‘from’ price, but prevent the purchase of the non-set quantities.
Thanks for your quick reply !..
I don’t have any knowledge of jquery other than using it to get a slider to work and such…and I’m not sure how to set it up the way you explain…
Hi,
So, you would name the value of the qty=1 variation to be let’s say QTY1 across all your products which need to be sold by set. The javascript would then be something like:
jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
//Using this jQuery, the QTY1 option would be disabled.
$("select option").each(function() {
var $thisOption = $(this);
var valueToCompare = "QTY1";
if($thisOption.val() == valueToCompare) {
$thisOption.attr("disabled", "disabled");
}
});
}); //end ready function
You’d attach this JS to each detail product page. As the value QTY1 would be unique to your set-based products, no other products should be affected. Untested, ymmv.
