Let’s start with the Populate options tab >

Populate options – free version

In the Populate options, you will be able to add as many options as you wish. For example, if you choose a Checkbox options set to display the available pizza toppings, every option will be one topping.

Add populate option - free version

The Populate settings of every option vary based on the type selected. Let go through all of them one by one below.


Checkbox

Checkbox populate options free version

As opposed to radio buttons, checkboxes let your users select more than one option for the same set. For every option you can set:

  • Label
  • Tooltip
  • Description
  • Image
  • Price: the option price can be calculated as a fixed or percentage amount from the product price:
    • product price doesn’t change – set option as free
    • increase the product price (on-sale available as well)
    • discount the product price
  • Selected by default
  • Required: if enabled, the customer cannot add the product to the cart without entering a text in this option.

Example: add extra paid options to your custom box delivered at home like order tracking and insurance.

  • Required: if enabled, the customer cannot add the product to the cart without entering a text in this option.

By its very nature, users can only select one option in a radio input. Use checkboxes if you want to let users select multiple options instead.

Example: I can create a radio add-on for the Delivery with two options:
1. pick up in store is free of charge and is the default selection
2. delivery at home has an additional cost of $29.99

Move on to the Conditional logic >

Conditional logic

The conditional logic is extremely useful if you want to hide or show some options based on what the customer selects in another options set.

Conditional logic - free version

After enabling the creation of display conditions, you will be able to set up the display rules.

You can choose whether to show or hide the current options set (add-on) if either All of the following rules or any of them match.

Then set if it has to be:

  • Selected
  • Not selected
  • Empty
  • Not empty

Let’s give an example to clarify how these rules work.

Example — show X if set of options Y is selected

You offer copywriting as a paid service, but SEO keywords can be added optionally and at an extra cost.

So, use a checkbox to let the user add the extra paid service for SEO keywords, and only if it is flagged, show a textbox where the user can type them in.

Create both options and then, from the Input text conditional logic, set the display rule like in the following screenshot:

Options configuration – free version

For every option set, you can configure different settings. Let’s analyze them together.

Options pricing

In this post we will cover all price options, the general ones available in all types of options and the extra one available for text inputs:


General price options

For every option, you can choose one of the following:

  • product price doesn’t change – set option as free
  • increase the product price (on-sale available as well)
  • discount the product price

When you select either increase or decrease, you can choose the price as:

  • fixed or
  • percentage

Also, you can set not only the regular price for the option but also a sale price.

General price options - free version

Example: Your product has three carrier options:
1. Fedex would generally cost $7, but this option is on sale for $5
2. DHL will not change the base product price
3. TNT discounts the base price by $3

Below you find the settings of the Fedex option and the frontend of all 4 options.

Pro tip: if you want to offer a certain number of options as free, but charge the users if they select more, you can do that from the Option configuration tab (option available only with the premium version).


Extra price options for Text inputs

Do you offer a custom ring with engraving options and want to charge the user $1 for every letter?

Text input and Textarea options include this extra feature and allow you to multiply the cost of the option by the number of characters typed in by the user.

When you choose to Increase the product price, besides fixed or percentage, you will be able to choose also Price multiplied by string length:

Text input price option - free version

Example: in the screenshot below you can see that the cost of the engraving is €1 per character, so a total of €7 as the word forever is made of 7 letters.
