Multiply Options

A Step-by-Step Guide for Multiplying a Number Input by Another Question

Imagine giving your prospects the ability to type in a number—like the size of a room—and instantly recieve a price estimate tailored to their needs. That’s what our multiplying options feature does.

Here’s how you can set it up in just a few simple steps:

Step 1: Accessing Question Settings

When you’re in the process of creating or editing your price estimator, click on the top-right COG icon to open the question settings.

Step 2: Enable Custom Number Input

Under the “Multiply Options” section, check the box for “Enable custom number input.”

Step 3: Set the Label for Your Number Question

Now that your question is set to a ‘Number’ format, it’s time to define what this number represents.

Enter both the Singular format (e.g., Square foot, meter, window) and the Plural format (e.g., Square feet, meters, windows).

Step 5: Multiply Costs by the Custom Input

In the “Multiply Options” section, select “Multiply costs by custom input.” Then, use the dropdown menu that appears to choose the number-based question you want to link it to.

Note: you can repeat steps 4-5 to assign as many questions as you wish to a number question.

That’s it! Save your estimator, and you’re ready to preview how it looks and works.

Here’s How It Will Look:

The ‘Number’ question allows the user to input a value, such as the size of their attic in square feet.

The user then selects the associated price question like normal, which calculates the cost based on the input number.

On the results page, everything is laid out transparently. The user sees the number they entered (e.g., 1000 square feet), the price range associated with the multiplier question (e.g., $250-$750), and how the cost was calculated (e.g., $0.25 – $0.75 per Square Foot).
