Open cart multiple Quantities with different pricing - php

I was wondering if there was an easy way on opencart(2.0.x) to let a user buy a product in 3 different Quantity options. 3,6, or 12 quantity, with each quantity having a unique price. (I.E- QTY 3 would sell for 10, QTY 6, 8.50, then 12 pack for 7). I tried to use the options module, to create a few radio button options but that tacks on the option to the original set price. I want the only options available to be the 3 types of quantity options. so if i choose the 3 QTY option I only pay $10.
Thank you in advance

No modifications are needed for this.
Go to the product's edit page and look at the discounts tab. In here you can put different quantities and prices. Note that the price field is per item, so you just need to divide your total by the number of products.
You can leave the start and end dates empty if they aren't appropriate.
There is a demonstration of this functionality on the official demo site and (I think) the dummy data provided when you first install OpenCart.

Want to add a checkbox to product page on woocommerce/measurement calculator plugin

I want to add a checkbox to products in certain categories in my online shop, but when the checkbox is ticked it will need to add 'x' amount to the total of the product.
To complicate things further, the product is total is calculated by (area x product price) after the user has inputted their required Length and Width, the checkbox will need to use the area value and then multiply the area by 2.5 and then add that sub-total to the grand total of the product. It's an add-on to the product. If you catch my drift?
Here's a link to a sample product page. The products are carpets, so when you to tick the checkbox, the carpets will have a stain protection applied and will be charged for.
Is there any snippet of code that could help me here?
So it was a relatively easy solution. It was just a case of turning the product into a variable product and using attributes to make a "yes or no" drop-down box, with one of the options having an increased price. This makes the price change before the area is calculated, unlike the 'product add-ons' plugin, which adds on after.
I can't believe it took me two weeks to find the answer to this.

How to add sub-products to a main product in Magento

I am designing a website for wedding cards with Magento.
Each wedding card which a user buys may come with few additional sub products like a Reply Card, an Additional Insert, etc.
For Example:
There is a wedding card named “A”. Now there is a minimum quantity check that we have put over this product. This product comes with 2 complementary inserts per product.
In addition to these 2 complementary inserts a user can buy additional inserts. The user should select the number of additional inserts from a drop down menu. According to whatever number is selected, additional inserts should be generated.
Now suppose he selected 2, so there would be 2 additional inserts. Each additional insert would have a minimum quantity linked to it. And there would be a fixed cost per additional insert.
I am stuck at this position. How can this be achieved in Magento?
This feature can be handled by the "configurable item type".
Make configurable item, select EAV attribute which connect that type selection.
This is way how you present an empty default product visible (with name image price) and after this you can make variables by another simple product with other prices store ammounts etc...
The same way is bundled item (there is no price, and is counted by sum of prices or selected sub-items by customer), magento shows "price starts by ...."

Make magento 3rd item from cart free

I need to know if there is a way to create this in Magento:
First of all, all my products price are fixed: 9.99$.
So i want to do this: if the client bought three products, the third is free, so it pays 2 products. He can do this as many times as they want, so if you buy 6 products, there will be 2 product free, if he buys 9 products, 3 are free
Magneto supports buy x get y free promotions. Information about setting them up is available at http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/how-to-setup-buy-x-get-y-free
It's possible to do this using magento Shoping Cart Price rules.
Create a Shoping cart price rule by going to your admin panel and clicking on Promotions -> Shoping Cart Price rules.
Create a condition for your rule. There is a nice GUI to define the conditions so they will look like: If an item is FOUND in the cart with ALL of these conditions true
Define an Action, actions describe how prices are updated when the conditions of the rule are met. In your case there is an specific action called: Buy X get Y Free, which defines a quantity that the customer must purchase to receive a quantity for free. (The Discount Amount is Y.)
Complete the labels: lables appears on the order below the subtotal to identify the discount. You can enter a default label for all store views, or enter a different label for each view.
Apply the rule. Make sure you save and enable the rule, also you can define a time range when the rule is valid and number of usages.

Magento - How to create 1 Product that will essentially link to 2 others?

My questions is basically I have 2 products that can be sold separately and together.
What I want to do is take these 2 individual items, create a new product in Magento for it with a new image that will show both of them together for a combined price. When this particular item is sold then it will reduce the qty from each of the individual sku's that were created. Is this possible?
As an example,
SKU 1 - Wii Remote - $30
SKU 2 - Wii Nunchuk - $15
SKU 3 - Wii Remote + Nunhcuk - $45
So when sku 3 is sold it will reduce the qty of sku 1 and 2.
Thank you
Maybe a "bundle" could help you?
http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/creating-a-bundled-product
I don't know for sure, because I have never used Magento. I just Googled your problem.
A bundle product will do if your rules are within these:
Points to Remember
A Bundle is a “build your own” product type
Bundle Items can be Simple or Virtual products, but without Custom Variants and Options
The Price View of a Bundle can be set to display a price range or “As Low as”
The SKU and Weight of a Bundle product can be set to either “Fixed” or “Dynamic”
Items can have either a preset or user-defined quantity
Items can be shipped together or separately
Bundle product data cannot be imported into your catalog.
Means : bundle product cannot have a configurable product within.
so if your SKU1 and SKU2 are not configurable or rather just simple or virtual then you can create a bundle product and sell the way you have stated.
I don't necessarily agree with the way magento wants us to sell our "Bundles"
It lets users decide which products they want to combine, it's really similar to a "Grouped product".
To me a bundle is predetermined by the store owner, If A is Bought together with B & C, then the customer saves X amount of money... It's not up to the customer to decide what's part of the bundle.
SO I ended up creating the Bundle, adding all the products I want in the bundle as a "Multiple Select", ticked them all as "Default",
and I'm hiding the options with CSS, only showing the price and the add to cart button (Every product has it's own class in ): body.product-name #product-options-wrapper { display: none }
So of course if you have thousands of bundles then this won't work for you.
I'm really happy with this solution because 1. It updates the inventory & 2. All of the SKUs are displayed on the invoice! (For me they are also lot numbers)

Grouped Product with Fixed Sub-item Quantities

I'm working on a Magento site that has a number of simple products. There's also a "holiday package" which combines several simple products into one, at a discounted price:
6 of Item A
2 of Item B
2 of Item C
2 of Item D
The "grouped" product type is pretty close to what I need - it allows each item to keep track of it's own stock, and when it comes time to ship and estimate packages, it tries to pack the containers using the weight/volume of each individual item. (This shipping aspect is very important, as we need to pack the boxes as efficiently as possible - using a simple product with an estimated size for all items may not work).
However, we do not want the customer to be able to choose the quantity of each item. The customer should instead be asked to choose how many holiday packages they would like.
Is a grouped product the best approach? Is there a better way to handle this?
In Magento 1.5.1, the best solution should be the bundle product. There, you can define a price, a quantity for each item in the backend. You can block the user to change the quantity for these items, not for the bundle product (you could too if you want but it's not your need here).
We do like that for some of our product. Check the screenshot to see an example of configuration
