Display Variant Price in Options Drowdown

[gdelorey@mitcs.com]

Hi -

Currently when a user drops down the variant list on individual product pages they have to click on a variant to have the price updated at the top of the product area. Is there a way to display the price next to the variants?

Example:

Option 1 ($14.99)
Option 2 ($16.99)
Option 3 ($17.99)

Thanks!

Follow-up: I've been trying to get this figured out without any luck. If anyone has ideas, they'd be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

This is old code andmaybe incomplete, but in the ProductHelper.cs, you can use
foreach (OptionChoice optionOption in availableOptions)
{
aspOptions.Items.Add(new ListItem(optionOption.Name + " + " + optionOption.PriceModifier.ToString("ulc"), optionOption.OptionChoiceId.ToString()));
}

You would need to tweak it if you aren't using price modifier or if some of your modifiers are negative dollar amounts.

Duh, I don't remember my own posts!
I'm glad Mr. Encyclopedia, Mazhar is back!

So I got the product variants to display their modifier price, then took it one step further to get them to display the actual variant price (modifier + product base price). My code looked like this:

Code: Select all

foreach (OptionChoice optionOption in availableOptions)
                    {
                        aspOptions.Items.Add(new ListItem(optionOption.Name + " - " + (product.Price + optionOption.PriceModifier).ToString("ulc"), optionOption.OptionChoiceId.ToString()));
                    }

This worked great, until I added the product to the cart. I get a ConLib error that states:

[[ConLib:Basket]] d:\projects\OlivePit\www\ConLib\Utility\BasketItemDetail.ascx.cs(170): error CS1501: No overload for method 'GetAssets' takes '5' arguments

I would love to get this working, but I'm a bit stuck at this point. Anyone have ideas on how to get around this issue?

Thanks!
