## Description

Gold Price Based on Weight makes it easy to calculate WooCommerce product prices
based on the price per gram of Gold, Silver, or Platinum.

Set the price per gram for each metal, select the metal type for your product, enter
the product weight, and let the plugin calculate the product price automatically.

Instead of manually calculating and updating prices for every product, simply update
your metal rate and let the plugin handle the weight-based calculation.

### How It Works

The plugin uses a simple three-step workflow.

### 1. Set Your Metal Rates

Enter the current price per gram for Gold, Silver, and Platinum from the plugin 
settings.

For example:

Gold: $100/g
 Silver: $1/g Platinum: $35/g

### 2. Add Metal Type and Weight

Edit your WooCommerce product and select the applicable metal type.

Then enter the product weight.

For example:

Metal: Gold
 Weight: 5g

### 3. Let the Plugin Calculate the Price

The plugin calculates the product price based on the configured metal rate and product
weight.

Example:

Gold Rate: $100/g
 Product Weight: 5g

Calculated Product Price: $500

### Update Your Metal Rate Once

When your metal prices change, you can update the rate from one central settings
page.

For example:

Old Gold Rate: $100/g
 New Gold Rate: $110/g

For a 5g product:

Old Price: $500
 New Price: $550

This makes it easier to manage pricing across products that use weight-based metal
pricing.

### Simple Product Pricing

Gold Price Based on Weight supports WooCommerce Simple Products.

Configure a product by selecting its metal type and entering its weight.

Example:

Gold Rate: $100/g
 Product Weight: 5g

Calculated Price: $500

The plugin handles the calculation automatically.

### Variable Product Pricing

Gold Price Based on Weight also supports WooCommerce Variable Products.

Each variation can have its own:

 * Metal type
 * Product weight
 * Calculated price

For example:

Gold Rate: $100/g

Small
 Weight: 2g Price: $200

Medium
 Weight: 5g Price: $500

Large
 Weight: 10g Price: $1,000

This is useful for products available in different sizes, weights, or metal types.

### Why Use Gold Price Based on Weight?

Managing prices for weight-based jewelry products can require repetitive calculations.

Gold Price Based on Weight lets you manage your metal rates centrally and calculate
product prices from weight.

Instead of manually calculating every product price, you can:

 1. Set the metal rate.
 2. Add the product weight.
 3. Select the metal type.
 4. Let the plugin calculate the price.

Update your metal rate once and simplify your WooCommerce pricing workflow.

 [sharkbyte](https://profiles.wordpress.org/deenafsm/) February 27, 2023

I needed a plugin that would allow me to add a global price per 1 gram of gold and
then just use the product weight to calculate the price automatically. Works exactly
as expected, no issues at all. I reached out to the developer as I needed help with
having this work with variable products and he customized the plugin to work as 
I needed. Super fast and amazing support, will be working with him on other custom
plugins! Thanks again!
