Incompatibility with Measurement Price Calculator plugin #617

Open mercerialacostura opened 6 years ago

mercerialacostura commented 6 years ago

Hi there,

In our shop we sell products per meters, and to do so, we need to use Measurement Price Calculator plugin.

The fact is after adding WooCommerce shop in my Facebook page, when you click firstly on the product and then on "Pay on the website", it takes you to the shop cart and it says "quantity missing" / "your cart is empty".

It looks to me as though the Facebook integration for WooCommerce simply doesn't have a quantity option, likely because most checkouts allow you to modify the quantity in the cart. However, Measurement Price Calculator is very specific as to what the quantity consists of, so you can't add a product that uses Measurement Price Calculator to the cart without the quantity.

I contacted Measurement Price Calculator support, but they told me to ask you about the integration since it's a function of Facebook.

We would love to sell through Facebook and Instagram, however we can't because it doesn't work properly for those who sell products that are sold in quantities based on their dimensions, square footage, volume, or weight.

I hope you could help all those who use Measurement Price Calculator plugin with that.

Thank you in advance.

Regards

So one solution is to simply add variations of a measurement product, e.g. 0.1 steps, each with the price. Doing this manually is a plain nightmare and extremely error-prone. However, this is a perfect candidate for automation. This plugin can generate/manage these variations automatically.
