Complex pricing

  1. Imagine this:

    We have a list of products.

    Each product can have an add-on.

    Each product can have a duration (starts at 1-1/2 hours, goes up in 1/2-hour increments).

    The price is a function of the base product, the number of add-ons, and the duration. Yow! Can I do this with Gravity forms?

    Here's a quick example of the kinds of values I'd like to get (prices simplified to show concept):

    Basic petting zoo, 1-1/2 hours (shortest duration): $200
    Petting zoo + 1 pony, 1-1/2 hours: $260 (adding ponies adds $60 per pony for the first 1-1/2 hours)

    Basic petting zoo, 2 hours: $250
    Petting zoo + 1 pony, 2 hours: $270 (adding ponies *and* time is more complicated)

    The formula is:
    B = base price, 1-1/2 hour party
    N = number of ponies
    T = Extra time, in half-hour increments

    Price = B + N*$60 + T*$50 + T*N*$10

    I.e., each pony adds $10 per half hour of additional time.

  2. I'm sure you can do this with the Gravity Forms; however, some of it would require a little custom code. Here's a walk-through with an example of adding a custom fee (tax) to a field. Some of the features you want could be added in a similar fashion.
