Sell by Weight PRO
What is it about?
Main features
Custom named weight options
You can define not only the selling weights, but also their respective names.
This is handy when you wish to sell some parts your product where the name is more important than it’s weight.
Of course when you don’t want, you don’t have to name them. Then you will get only numbers as you entered them.
At the start you will define all the weight and then you can choose more precise in your product.
Automatic price calculation with change on select
The price is calculated according to your settings and then when user selects the option it changes automatically.
You will enter desired price which will be visible on your Shop page, then you will enter the weight of the product – you can enter simply 1kg and then your entered price will be for per kilogram. Also if you don’t enter the weight the plug-in will assume that the price is for one kg.
Price is afterwards calculated for selected portion of the entered weight and displayed automatically.
Weight options per product
For every product you can choose which weight options you want to display. Initially all of them are selected, but you can narrow the selection down and pick only those which are relevant for current product.
Automatic product name in Cart
After adding the product to the cart the product name will get automatic suffix according to the selected weight option. This makes it easy to recognise for the customer in the cart and even so for the shop manager. It also comes with displayed weight, so when the name doesn’t contain the weight you still see it clearly. These features can be turned on or off depending on your preferences.
Possibility to use Weight based Orders and Inventory
Some shops can benefit from the possibility of managing orders and inventory in weight units (for example kilograms). With this feature you will be able to change total weight of products in orders. The stock will be reduced by weight of selected option. When purchased, all the different weight options belonging to one product, will be then subtracted together from the stock of said product.
Shop manager friendly
As a shop manager you have all the important information right in front of you. When you look at new order you will see how much the item weights and also the total weight. This is important when you have a lot of different products and want to expedite them quickly.

Hello,
Thank you for this extension.
I wonder how we can translate easily labels without using an extension ? I want to translate labels “Product quantity” and “Selected option” in french.
Can you help me please ?
Thank you
Hi,
if you don’t want to use any translation plugin, you can go to Crowdin site, where is my plugin available for translation – link here https://crowdin.com/project/sell-by-weight-pro
There you can do the translation of the strings you need to change and then download the translated .PO file.
The resulting file should then be uploaded to this location on your website /wp-content/languages/plugins/ this location prevents translation overwrite with next plugin update.
There is also the second possibility to translate it with the plugin Loco translate directly on your site. After you translate what you need, you can disable Loco plugin, and it should work too.
cheers Martin
Hi, i just bought the plugin but i can’t activate it
Licencing server is experiencing problems, or is not available.
Unexpected Error! The query returned with an error:stream_socket_client(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages: error:14094410:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:sslv3 alert handshake failure stream_socket_client(): Failed to enable crypto stream_socket_client(): unable to connect to ssl://mechcomp.cz:443 (Unknown error)
Hi Jean-Louis,
it seems that on your server is missing cURL support for PHP, install it and try again. It should work then.
Best regards Martin
I don’t know how to add the Sell By weight option to a variable product. I need the option “Raw and cooked” for lobsters, in example, but when I choose variable product the plugin tab disappears from the options.
Hi,
The answer is that it is not possible to add Sell by Weight for variable products. Sell by Weight PRO creates a product, which is sort of replacement of Variable product. If you need to add some option to the product, you can do it through WooCommerce Product Add-ons or some similar plugin.
It’s possible to add €/kg in the price of the product field (The woocommerce one)?
Or do you know a plugin to do that?
Thanks.
Yes, it’s exactly what my other plugin – Price per Unit PRO does. You should try it.
