I need an additional field for certain products to show text such as /Sq.Ft or /ft., etc.
For example, carpet would display a price of $7, the shopper would see "per sq.yard" or "per ft." depending on what the admin specified.
The shopper would now know that the carpet is $7 per sq.ft. or whatever the case may be.
How can I accomplish this?

Dumaloo,
Product type / type properties.
Make a product type, 'Carpet, A' (and others as Carpet, B and C, .... as needed later) and have it display "Sold by:" Only the admin sees "Carpet, A". The shoppers won't see this, so call it what you want, it will be in a list of Product types.
Set up type properties in drop-down list. Set up "sq. ft.", "sq. yd.", "linear foot", "guess work"... etc.
In admin, chose "Carpet A" and from the drop-down, one of the "sq. ft." texts. Then, assign the Type to the product.
You'll see: "Sold by: sq. ft." on the site's product page.
The advantage to doing this instead of using the description box is that mass editing is possible. Mfg A may sell his carpet by the sq yd. next year so changing the site for all "carpet A's" stuff is easy. |

Thanks Mitch. This is exactly what I needed. Unrelated, but do you know how to disable wish lists?
