HDWebmobile Formula Pricing

HDWebmobile Formula Pricing lets customers enter measurements or quantities on the product page, and prices the product live from a formula you write using those field names (e.g. 10 + width * height * 0.05 for a custom-cut material priced by area). This is a common real need for stores selling custom-sized fabric, framed prints, engraved items, or anything priced by dimension or quantity, not just a flat number. Security by design The simplest way to implement formula-based pricing -- passing the merchant's formula text straight into PHP's eval() at calculation time -- is also the most dangerous: it turns any formula input into a remote code execution path. This plugin closes that entire vulnerability class by construction:

• The formula is tokenized character-by-character into a strict set of allowed pieces: numbers, your own configured field names, and the four arithmetic operators plus parentheses. Anything else in the formula text -- any other letter sequence, any function-call-looking pattern, any special character -- causes the formula to be rejected outright when you save it.
• The token stream is evaluated by a small hand-written arithmetic parser. There is no eval(), no create_function(), no dynamic function dispatch of any kind anywhere in this plugin -- the only operations that can ever run are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of plain numbers.
• The customer-facing live price preview also never exposes your formula to the browser: it's computed by an AJAX call back to your own server, through the exact same safe evaluator used at checkout, so the formula text itself is never sent to a visitor's browser.
• The real price used at checkout is always recomputed server-side from the product's own stored fields and formula -- never trusted from what the browser submitted.

Key Features

• Add up to 6 numeric input fields per product (label, variable name, min/max bounds, default value)
• Write a formula referencing those fields by name -- validated for safety the moment you save it
• Live price preview on the product page as the customer types, computed server-side
• Optional minimum/maximum price clamps, so no combination of inputs can produce an unreasonable price
• Every field's min/max bounds are enforced again server-side at add-to-cart time, not just in the browser
• Field values show on the cart, checkout, and order screens exactly as entered

Limitations (please read before installing)

• Simple products only in this version -- no variable-product support
• Formulas support only +, -, *, /, and parentheses (no exponents, square roots, or conditional logic) -- deliberately, since a richer grammar is a larger safety surface to get right
• No formula "test" button in the admin beyond the save-time validation -- if a formula is rejected, the error message names exactly what's wrong (an unknown variable, a bad character, division by zero with the values you tried)
• Requires a Regular Price to be set on the product (even a nominal placeholder) -- this is standard WooCommerce behavior for any product with no price at all, not something this plugin can work around
