Is it possible to build a price calculator?

wonderland 30 Aug, 2016
Hello,

After looking through documentation I can say that ChronoForms seems extremely complicated (in a good way).

But I was wondering how hard would it be to build price calculator similar to this http://skaiciuokle.tvora.eu/?

Some things I wanted to clarify:
1. Add pictures to radio boxes?
2. Create a step by step layout for the form.
3. Add calculations to values entered in form (This probably will have to be coded in jquery? Maybe there are some plugins that can do this)

This probably is a little bit redundant. But is it hard to upgrade from free to paid version of the component? Or is it just a matter of validation?

Hi wonderland,

You can do a form like this in ChronoForms, it isn’t a 'normal' type of form so will require a lot of custom coding.

1. I would use Custom HTML and JavaScript to create the click on images - there is nothing built-in to CF to do that. You also have some quite complex logic I suggest to get the logic working,

2. ChronoForms supports multi-page forms though you might find that using Ajax queries in custom JavaScript is a better way to do this.

3. Yes, this will be custom code - either JavaScript or PHP depending on how you have the form structured (PHP for multi-page and JavaScript with Ajax).

The free version is fully functional - you can validate to remove the strap-line once you are ready to go live.
