Don't know where to start with GF & Cart66

I bought Gravity Forms and Cart66 6/18 (yesterday). I tried to build a new form and am totally lost. I have my form layed out and it's pretty complicated. I could hand code it no problems, but I'm a very visual person and just can't find any visual examples of what I want to do. I have a base price and 3 variety drop downs that can add $1 or $2 to the base price, 2 other drop downs that do not affect the price. I have 4 checkbox/radio button combo options that will add $1 to $5 to the price. Also, on 3 of those checkboxes, if checked, need the customer (mandantory) to select a color or quantity.

I just don't know how to proceed. I have lots of drop downs and some logic involved. I worked several years as a PHP/MySQL developer, but that was 4 years ago.

Here's what I want to do:
Build a Koozie

I also need to understand how Cart66 and Gravity Forms fit together. Once I can see the big picture and understand the terminology, I'm usually good to go. I just can't see it right now. I would like to get my shopping cart up and going asap. I did start with my most complicated form.

If anyone could point me in the right direction on where to get started and any vidoes that address a complicated form like this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Alisa

I really don't have anything yet. I'm just not sure where to start. I do have base price started, but don't know how to share this with you. I can click update form, but where does it go? I haven't linked it to a page yet and not sure yet how to do that. I wish there was a step by step tutorial or youtube vidoes on how to add products. I find lots of stuff on how to add contact us forms, but nothing on how to add products, especially more complicated scenarios.

I'm really confused by terminology. For instance, I want to start with a base price ($9), so do I use Pricing Fields? Then, I want to add options and variations. So to add style choices, do I use Standard Fields/Drop Down? I can't see how to add $1 to the price for beer and water bottle styles. And when I add $1 to the base price, do I say $1 or $10?

I need a tutorial with examples, not just generalized words. I'm very a visual/kenetic learner, so just text doesn't work for me.

Thanks,
Alisa

Rob,

Okay, here's a stab at the form. Scroll to the bottom of the page for the form. There are lots of logic elements I want to add, but not sure how to add them, plus additional charges for certain elements, mainly embellishments, but also some colors and some styles of Koozie. Also, I need to wrap the Cart66 around this and not sure how to do that.

Alisa, yes - you would use conditional logic for that. So what you would do is create the fields that you'd like to show and then on each of those fields, while you are editing them - go to the Advanced Tab and enable conditional logic - at that point you can choose the condition to have that field show.

Awesome Alisa, glad you are getting the swing of it. We do have Ready Classes you can use - check the details out here for your options:
