Product Configurator / Area Calculation for Shopware 6
Our highest-rated configurator from Shopware 5 — now for Shopware 6. With this plugin, the successor to our successful Shopware 5 plugin "Area calculation with individual options", you assign options and option values to any product and calculate areas, weights and surcharges using formulas of your own.
Whether a simple choice or a complex calculation: you create configurable articles with calculation of areas, weights and options — or configurations entirely without area calculation. Every configuration can be used on any number of products, without having to create a variant for each combination.
All components are included in the plugin and are extended continuously. You do not need paid add-ons as with other configurators.
The form fields in detail
Choosing from a list
- Select field (dropdown) — the classic list for many variants in little space. Surcharge and calculation appear directly in the entry.
- Select field with multiple choice — several entries of the same list selectable at once, each with its own price.
- Image select — a list that opens with pictures: preview, name and price per entry, plus a magnifier for the large view.
Choosing by clicking
- Radio buttons — exactly one variant out of several.
- Radio buttons as buttons — the same choice as buttons side by side, for when the customer should compare a few variants at a glance.
- Checkboxes — freely combinable accessories, each with its own price.
- Checkboxes as buttons — multiple choice in button form.
- Boxed radio / boxed checkboxes — choices as separated boxes, easy to read even with long names.
- Image radio — single choice as image tiles. A picture often shows the difference more clearly than any text.
- Image checkboxes — the same as a multiple choice.
Entries made by the customer
- Calculation — the heart of it: width, height, length and quantity with minimum and maximum values, a starting value, a step size and a unit. From these your formula calculates the area, and from the area comes the calculation price.
- Numeric input field — a free figure within fixed limits, either as an input field or as a slider. The price can follow the figure.
- Text field — free lettering with a character limit and counter. On request the price follows the number of characters — ideal for vinyl lettering.
- Date field — for requested dates or delivery days.
- Colour field — colour selection through the browser's colour picker.
- Upload field — for print files, with permitted formats and a size limit. Intended for straightforward files, not for very large volumes of data.
Price and calculation
- Dynamic price calculation — every entry takes effect at once, without reloading.
- Price prefix per form field — add, subtract, percent of the result, times the area, times the perimeter, times width or height, and more.
- Complex formulas — both for the calculation and for every individual option value.
- Units of calculation — entries in m, mm, cm or l; the result in m², mm², cm², m³ and others.
- Tier prices — for the calculation and per option value, by quantity, area or number of items, per customer group if required.
- Minimum value calculation — a minimum price applies when the area becomes too small; either as a replacement or as a surcharge.
- Weight calculation — with its own formula per option value; the weight is passed on to shipping.
- Panel calculation — for items made up of several panels.
- Calculation by number of characters — the price follows the length of the lettering.
- Matrix (beta) — prices from a table based on two input values.
- €0.00 basket fix — reliable transfer even with zero prices.
Presentation and operation
- Number of columns per device — set separately for mobile, tablet and desktop.
- Sticky summary — the overview stays in view while scrolling.
- Images on options — for checkboxes, radio buttons, image radio, image checkboxes and image select.
- Predefined option values — a preselection the customer can change.
- Reset selection — one click and the configuration starts over.
- Include accessory articles — real articles instead of variants, selectable right inside the configurator.
- Request a quotation — for configurations that are not to be ordered straight away.
- A separate configuration per variant — different product variants may be configured differently.
Data and migration
- Import and export profiles — bring your data across from our Shopware 5 plugin (from version 3.0.7).
- Shipping rules — ready-made rules for girth, maximum length, width, height and maximum dimensions.
New from 2 November 2026: the New Edition
With version 5.0 the plugin gains a second, newly built interface — the New Edition. You decide per configuration whether to work with it; the classic view remains unchanged and reachable at any time. Nothing is switched over that you do not switch over yourself.
One workplace instead of three screens
Assembling, calculating and dependencies sit side by side: on the left the options of your
shop, in the middle the configuration, on the right the settings of the selected field.
Reorder by dragging, edit with a click.
The formula builder
Calculations are assembled from building blocks instead of typed text: dimensions, option
prices, quantity, interim results, brackets, basic arithmetic and functions. Conditions are
possible too — if the width exceeds 2.50 m, calculate differently. Each step is
restated below in a readable sentence, and a test area shows the result with freely chosen
values before anything goes live.
The price explains itself
Below each amount it says how it was reached: "Width × €3.20",
"× perimeter (width × 2 + height × 2)" or, with a condition, the full calculation. Your
customer sees not only what they pay but why — which prevents questions
before they arise.
Dependencies between fields
Fields can be shown and hidden, locked or made mandatory depending on other selections.
What is hidden is neither calculated nor ordered.
Templates
Ready-made field sets for recurring tasks can be inserted — and removed again in full,
including the options and option values created with them.
Further additions
- Fourteen calculation modes per option value, with the mode shown in the shop below the price
- Summary with calculation, weight, subtotal, discount and final price
- File upload with progress bar and clear feedback for each file
- Tier prices visible to the customer — they see from when it gets cheaper
- Discount per sales channel
- Interface fully available in German and English, with a dark theme
- Frozen price: an order keeps the price it was placed at
