    Hello Im wanting an order form where choosing options will have a cost associated to them and then a total at the bottom, then ideally I can link to paypal to pay..

    Are we there yet with jotform ? .. I have searched and tried a few times different ways, but wondered if im missing soemthing or if something like this is planned for future,..

     

    Thanks in advance

    You can do this in the payment wizard. In setting up the payments, you need to choose "Users can select multiple products" and then enable the "Show total on the form".

    You can easily add multiple products with the assigned price on it.

    Here's how it'll looks like in the payment field in the live version.

    Hey thanks ., will this work from drop down choices ? I have rather alot of picture frame sizes can choose from ..
    Also I will need price options to pop up based on previous choices.. 
    Ie we charge a fee to coat the picture , but that fee depends on the size they choice, is this just a matter of creating conditions..

    Cheers

    For a drop down under products, you can use the "Add Options" feature. Please follow the steps below:

    1. In the Payment wizard: Products, select a product and then click the "Add New Option" button.
