cyrtus Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Site URL: https://copper-ranunculus-4r4w.squarespace.com/config/ I'm trying to change the product quantity from 1 to 0.5 but I'm getting nowhere. We're selling fabrics and we sell 1/2 meter instead of 1 meter. So it's make sense if we put the lowest quantity to 0.5 instead of 1, but it seems Squarespace doesn't let me do that. Does anyone know how. Please help! Link to comment
paul2009 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Quantities can only be entered in whole numbers. It isn’t possible to change this. However, you can change your product description to indicate that it is sold by the half-metre, so that quantity ‘2’ is actually one metre. If this is confusing, some code could be written to show the number of metres selected, just below the quantity selector. Me: I'm Paul, a SQSP user for >18 yrs & Circle Leader since 2017.

Ten17 Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 @paul2009 How difficult would it be to generate code to display yards/metres selected given a multiplication factor of x2? I have the same issue for a client with a fabric shop. We have launched and so far no issues with customers understanding. I created custom labels based on "tags" to display for various things on product pages and thumbnails including "quantity in 1/2 yards" for "yards" tag and "quantity in bundles" for "bundle" tag and pre-order for a display label on the product thumbnail... Displaying a dynamic calculation of yards selected would be really icing on the cake. https://www.dogwoodtrailquiltco.com/fabric/romance-novel-paper-back Link to comment

paul2009 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) I have posted details of the proposed solution in this guide: Selling in fractions of a unit on Squarespace. In summary, it replaces the Add to Cart label with a label that shows the number of yards being purchased - where 'Qty:1' is '0.5 yards'. I was looking at better ways of with fractional units (see below) but I haven't had time to work this through, hence finally posting details of the original idea above 🙂 Did this help?

Wenninger Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 @paul2009 Is there way to only target products that have "yardage" or something similar for this to take effect? I have some things that are a quantity of 1 but other things that are measured by the yard. Link to comment

Yes, tag those products and then amend the code accordingly. The exact solution will depend on the template/version/tag used. Me: I'm Paul, a SQSP user for >18 yrs & Circle Leader since 2017.

Aneedleandthread Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Hello @paul2009 thank you so much for sharing this code injection! However, I sell more than just yardage on my website, and other items like bundles or sewing notions need to be sold normally without the "0.5 Yards to Cart" edit. So while I would love to use your code, I only want it to affect certain products in my shop. You said in a previous post that to do so you can tag those posts and amend the code accordingly, but I'm not sure how to do that and would appreciate your help. Thanks! 🙂 Link to comment

If you're using a different version/template, please provide a link to a product that is sold by length and has been tagged as explained in the guide 🙂. Did this help?

MWInteriors Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 I sell fabric by the meter and want customers to be able to order fabric by the half meter too, but it seems that when adding a quantity as a decimal such as 1.5 (1.5meters), a message appears saying that quantities must be added as whole numbers. Is there a way around this? Link to comment
