CCGV Help... (Credid Class Gift Voucher)

[ABROADman]

Hello,

 

I've got the CCGV installed on my site and am now wondering how to create a product that is a Gift Voucher (Gift Certificate)!!!! Does this system not have a admin feature to create a new product that is a GV? Am I missing something obvious?

 

I have browsed the forums and found many references to people installing this system, but nobody seems to be talking about how to USE this part of the contribution.

 

Any help/advice is much appreciated.

Creating a Gift Voucher.

 

Creating a gift voucher for a customer to buy is the same as creating a new product with the exception that the gift vouchers model number must start with the word GIFT in upper case. It can be GIFT_25 or GIFT25 or whatever you would like to use. as the suffix to the word. But MUST START with the word GIFT You can create gift vouchers in any denomination. Gift certificate images have been provide in the catalog\images directory in denominations of 25$, 50$ and 100$ values.

 

You can also create gift vouchers by sending them to your customers via the admin->Vouchers/Coupons->Mail Gift Voucher selection within the admin. To use this to send a voucher to a customer use the drop down customer list. To send to a single customer or future customer you can put their email in the Email To: text box. Do not use both the customer dropdown list and the Email To: text box or the customer will get 2 gift vouchers. To determine what values the gift voucher is used on please see the doc on modules->order total->gift vouchers.

 

Gift vouchers are a virtual product. In this regard, in many shops, they do not require shipping charges to be added to them. To avert the shipping charge on gift vouchers set the weight of the gift voucher to 0 when creating the product and enable downloads by setting true the value admin->configuration->downloads->enable download .
