YES!

James, you are my hero. It works! Thanks.

Now If only I could switch of the number-field and only have required weight field followed by the add to cart button the WooWorld would be perfect.

Thanks for any tips.

That’s what I do now, but the problem is that I want clients to be able to order any amount, so 1,25 kilos or 0,7…
And that is not possible in a standard WooCommerce setup.

I could place all products in “units” of 100 grams, but thats far from elegant in my opinion.

Hey TDU,

Thanks for your answer.

I don’t mind adding extensions to WooCommerce at all. Even paying (a fair amount) for one that does what I want it too is totally fine by me. I’ll have a look at Code Canyon, thanks for the tip. I would however like to stay in WordPress if possible, and not have to use hand coding for something that seems like a common, and easy to resolve problem to me.

I looked into variable products, thanks for the tip. But that seems indeed a long way to get there, and it means also that I cannot let the customer freely enter the desired quantity of product, but I’d have to present the client with an (endless) list of different weights to choose from. And I am not even sure if Woocommerce would calculate than the right price, or just use the weight entered for calculating shipping… No to mention the hassle when a price (per kilo) changes…

Thank you also Filipe for your reply. Still waiting for someone to come up with a solution.

I have read and reread the documentation on this extension and it seems that it won’t do the trick I want it too…

I don’t need discounts at certain amounts purchased, I only want to simply be able to have customers enter an amount of product (like: weight or length) and than have the extension calculate the price based on a given price per kilo of product.

Any one got a solution or exemple of a extension that does this?

Uhm, if you say so, but I am not convinced that this can actually do what I want it to. The documentation is kinda unclear about the exact option I look for. Do you have an exemple of a site that uses this extension? Yours maybe? I am not ready to shelve out 100 dollars just to find out it may or may not work.

I want Woocommerce to allow customers to enter a weight in grammes (or kilos) they want to buy of a certain kind of product. The product has a price per kilo and the extension should calculate the price for a given amount (0,75 kilo x 12,80=9,50 for exemple.

If I understand it correctly, this is sofar not possible. Rather disappointing but it seems that ecommerce in general is sofar limited to items sold a piece and not per metre or kilo…

Guess I have to keep going to the local markets to sell my dutch cheeses for now…
