Hi BrickForge Community,

I’m trying to create an instant quote for my new website. Potential clients answer a few questions and recieve and instant estimate of how much their site may costs - and are encouraged to request a detailed quote with some more information!

My questions are:

  1. Can you make a calculation of calculations? Here’s my email forumla:
Hi {{given_name}},

I'm Steve, and I'm here to help you choose the best website option for your business. 

Please keep in mind that this is an estimate for a custom-built website for a small or medium sized business. If you are interested in a cheaper option, please ask us about our template website. 

Here is your basic website estimate:

<h3>Base Website Build Cost:</h3> $2,500

<h3>Custom Designed Pages:</h3> ${{designs_calc}} 
({{designs}} custom designed pages at $390 each)

<h3>Custom Post Types:</h3> ${{cpt_price}} 
({{cpts}} CPTs at $490 each)

<h3>Required Functionality:</h3> {{81d360}}

<h2>Your total cost is ${{total_calc}}</h2>

And here’s the formula for the total cost:

2500 + {cpt_price} + {designs_calc} + {woo}

But I’m getting a zero on the total cost. Is that because you can’t calculate using calculation field results? How could I get that done?

  1. How do I make calculations on Checkbox values?

I put in a “Checkbox Wrapper” element and then I added a “Checkbox” element and put the values as so:

How do I make it so that when someone checks the “eCommerce (WooCommerce)” box, that is automatically given a numerical value (price) and then it is added into the email calculations?

Hope that’s clear enough. Let me know if it’s not!

Thank you!

Okay, so I solved Question 2. I was trying to add individual Checkbox values, but all I had to do was put the Checkbox Wrapper value and BOOM, the calculated value for each individual item checked was added to provide the total value of all checked (check)boxes.

So now my only issue is with the Total, which does not seem to be calculated. My forumla is now:

{cpt_calc} + {designs_calc} + {functionality_calc} + 2500

Which results in a number that makes no sense.

I’ve added the calcuations so that they display on the final step, so anyone can see the calculation results without entering their email and clicking submit on the final step.

Is it impossible to do a calcuation using calculations inside the same pro form?
