Need help combining two contrubtions

[dczward]

Hello,

 

I am working on customizing an OS Commerce install for a client. I love OS Commerce, but there were two things that it couldn't do "out of the box" for my client's needs:

 

1) Allow for price breaks based on quantity

2) Allow for a master/slave product system (where, when choosing prod A, prod B would be added automatically. They need this because they need to add a non-taxible item [a "core charge"] to certain products, and it need to show up as a separate, non-taxible item in the checkout/invoice page).

 

Searching through user contributions, I came across solutions for both problems...

 

Master Products - MS2:

----------------------

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ch,Master+Slave

 

 

Quantity Price Breaks Per Product:

----------------------------------

http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ch,Price+levels

 

 

The problem is that the don't work TOGETHER. They both modify the same files. I've tried carefully combining the two, and had some success. However, the resulting "combined" modification yields the following: any item designated as a "master" product does not have the price breaks. The "slave" products do. This is the opposite of what we want/need.

 

Is there anyone out there who has encountered the same issue, or needed the same solution, and found one? Or, is there someone willing to work on combining the two contributions so it works like we'd need it to? My php skills are good, but as I'm not familiar with the gut of OS Commerce programming, and it is a large, complex application, 90% of my time applying a fix would involve just trying to learn how OSCommerce is written, before even attempting a fix.

 

Any feedback would be appreciated.
