• Hi, I have been roundand round in circles looking for the best way to do the following

    We run events and have a seperate page for each event is the easy part.
    We use payment methods paybale, BACS, cheque and cash with woocommerce at the moment

    When it comes to entering events I want to list all the events so people can tick which they want, a total automatically shows at the bottom, choose payment method and go to pay option.

    I am sure this sounds really easy to many people, but I cannot for the life of me find simple way to do this.

    An example of what I am looking for can be found at this website

    http://www.1836tour.com/89/2016_Schedule/ – go towards the bottom of the list and you will see the radio buttons for events still to run this year.

    Its really just a simple form, but I do not know how to do the radio button options, adjusting total and then pay options.

    All help very much appreciated – my website is http://www.tsmt.co.uk

    Thank you

    Michelle

  • You could achieve that using a form plugin with WooCommerce. Then use product fields and options, so depending on which options where selected the total price would be adjusted.

    Then the total amount is used when the order is created.

    Hi thank you so much for your quick reply. Very much appreciated. I have seen that add on, but it still seems so complicated for whats needed. I already feel I over complicated the process using woocommerce. I found having seperate products for each event too combersome when I just want a list from which people can check when it comes to entering/payment.

    I am thinking just one form, with the ability to chose from ONE LIST of 10 different events, as many as buyer wishes, total of those picked and send to payment. There must be a simpler method.

    For example…. one form with list of events to enter…

    radio buttons for each event O is radio button unchecked 0 is checked

    Event one 0 £100 Member price O £150 Non Member Price
    Event two O £100 Member 0 £150 Non Member
    Event three O £100 Member 0 £150 Non Member
    Event four O £100 Member O £150 Non Member
    etc

    Adds up a Total Entry Fee £400.00

    Add normal form fields, name etc

    Select a payment option, so could have a paypal option which would send buyer to paypal, and a second option/button could simply direct to a page which lists BACS info, cheque info, cash in

    Pay with PayPal incl credit cards BACS CHEQUE CASH

    It doesn’t have to be woocommerce.

    I have spent 12 months going round in circles on this so any further guidance is appreciated and this is what I would like but with payment option http://www.1836tour.com/89/2016_Schedule/

    Thank you, Michelle

    So in that case you would just need one base product, create the form.

    Then add in the various options within the form. Then each product or option has a value with it.

    So you select the form to show on that product.

    You can hide fields as well using conditional logic, so only certain options can show.

    It is not as complex as you think it would be.

    You could just build the entire thing with a form plugin as well.

    Thank you again. Re form plugin… I cant find how to do that so that it totals up the options selected. Feel like I am being really dumb on this

    Thanks, Michelle

    @seniormasters

    Depends on which form plugin you are using or which of the WooCommerce plugins that you would be using.

    Hi, thank you again for your reply. I don’t know which plugin to use… Thats the trouble. What form plugin will do the job? It seems it should be an easy option to not use a complex ecommerce suite like woocommerce for a single page of options to order from.

    I am currently looking to change hosting to a company with uk servers. My wordpress site is so bogged down with the plugins I run that I am going to start the site from scratch when I move it, and try to thin out plugins. Woocommerce currently occupies so many different plugins, I must be able to do this single page ordering in a much less complicated way.

    Please I really need someone to hold my hand and tell me the form plugins that will do the job.

    Thank you

    Michelle

    I would look at Gravity Forms, Formidable Forms, Ninja Forms or WPForms. Most integrate with most of the main payment gateways PayPal, Stripe or Authorize.net.

    Find the feature set and the one that works best for your site budget.
