WPC Dimensly - Measurement Price Calculator for WooCommerce (Premium)

Sell by measurement, not just by unit

Some WooCommerce stores simply can't work with a fixed price per product: the customer needs 7.5 meters of fabric, 12 square meters of tile, or a custom-cut piece of glass measuring 80x120 cm. WPC Dimensly solves this by turning the product page into a real-time calculator: the buyer enters the dimensions they need and the price updates instantly, before adding the item to the cart.

What kind of stores this is built for

• Tiles and flooring: the customer enters the square meters they need, and the plugin can automatically round up to full boxes.
• Fabrics and textiles: sold by linear meter, with the option to set a minimum price so small sample orders stay profitable.
• Custom glass, frames and aquariums: price and weight calculated from height, width and depth.
• Printing services: custom formulas that combine area with a fixed setup cost.
• Wallpaper, liquids and any product sold by area, volume or length.

How the WPC Dimensly calculator works

The plugin offers several calculation modes that cover most measurement-based selling scenarios: area, volume, length, weight and custom math formulas. The calculator interface has a modern glassmorphism design, built to inspire trust and blend in with current themes.

For stores with large catalogs, rule management is hierarchical and can be set up in just a few clicks thanks to a drag-and-drop interface:

• Global rules: a default calculator applied to an entire category or the whole catalog.
• Product-level rules: specific settings for a particular product that override the global rule.
• Variation-level rules: different units or formulas depending on the variation, for example different material thicknesses.

This makes it possible to manage thousands of products with just a few base rules, without having to configure every single listing one by one.

Smart rounding to full boxes

One of the most practical features of WPC Dimensly is box-based inventory mapping. If a box of tiles covers, say, 1.44 m² and the customer needs 10 m², the plugin automatically calculates how many full boxes are required (in this case 7, covering 10.08 m²) and adjusts the cart accordingly. This eliminates the manual calculations and stock errors that commonly occur with products sold by package.

Custom formulas with WPC Dimensly

Beyond the standard area or length modes, you can define your own math expressions using variables such as {L}, {W} and {H}. A custom frame shop, for instance, could calculate the perimeter in meters with a formula like (({L}+{W})*2)/100. This flexibility covers cases that don't fit the predefined modes, such as pricing with fixed charges, volume discounts, or combinations of several dimensions.

Shipping weight adjusts too

When price depends on measurement, the actual weight of the order changes too, which affects shipping cost. WPC Dimensly lets you link shipping weight to the measurement entered by the customer, so buying 10 meters of a heavy fabric generates a shipping cost that matches its real weight, avoiding losses caused by shipping calculations based on a fixed weight.

WPC Dimensly FAQ

Can I use the same calculator across an entire product category?

Yes. Global rules can be applied to a whole category or the entire catalog, and then adjusted individually at the product or variation level whenever needed.

Does it work with products that have variations, like different thicknesses or materials?

Yes, each variation can have its own unit of measurement, its own formula, or its own calculation mode, independent of the product's general rule.

What happens if the customer requests an amount that doesn't fit into a full box?

The box-rounding system automatically calculates how many packaging units are needed to cover the requested measurement, adjusting the cart total without any manual intervention.

Can I create formulas beyond just area or length?

Yes, the custom formula mode supports math expressions using the length, width and height variables, allowing calculations such as perimeters, fixed surcharges, or more complex combinations.
