Guest Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Also I think the checkout_confirmation.php needs to be had an addition to show the correct total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Also noticed it's not calculating in the shipping w/ the discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Well, I got mine working!! Woohooo!!! Thanks for the help!! I do have a big suggestion boxtel...I think you need to make a new release that includes the changes which are posted earlier in this thread. Like the change to the class, I missed that little bit in this thread and that's why I was getting zero discounts. Other than the setup confusion...it's an awesome contribution and I'm very grateful to you for making it! Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I've updated the files and changed all the stuff over to the new way of doing it. I'm not getting double posting.. But I'm still not showing the discount reflected in the database.. The discount is showing up in the session vars and on the right hand side and stuff, but nothing on the checkout_confirmation.php page where the $order_totals is called.

In the admin section for order_total modules, did you install the easy_discount module? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 In the admin section for order_total modules, did you install the easy_discount module? I sure did. I just removed it and installed it again. Still the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klumsi Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Is there anyone here who could explain to me how to add this? I uploaded the new files. Inserted the application_top code. Now i am on Step 3 and i have no clue where to put any one of those codes. I installed the module.. Nothing is happening. Where do i add the global variable definition? I would like to have things set up so when a new customer registers and places an order of any amount, they will receive a 10% discount. However, i only want this 10% to apply on their first order. I'm just having a very hard time understanding this whole install, for some reason. It's one of my last steps before opening my shop!

klumsi Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 ^ Well, i finally got it working. Except one problem. At Checkout Confirmation, it does not include the discount in the grand total. I applied a discount of -$1.00, my order came to 8.50 (orginally 9.50). At the checkout confirmation page, it resorts back to 9.50. What did I do wrong? I am still interested webexceed's "First Customer" fix, also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 an alternative to ccgv!! :D i just read this entire thread and i'm absolutely baffled. could somebody make an instruction for dummies on how exactly to get the 'ccgv' effect? i know there's a few posts detailing so, but i'm having a difficult time piecing them together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Elli and you are having that same problem with checkout_confirmation and I don't know why. I never had that problem...at least not once everything else was working correctly. This is the code I am now using in login.php, I have this just under the check password and check country routines: $check_prevord_query = tep_db_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as prevnum from " . TABLE_ORDERS . " where customers_id = '" . (int)$check_customer['customers_id'] . "' AND DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY) < date_purchased"); $check_prevord = tep_db_fetch_array($check_prevord_query); if ($check_prevord[prevnum] < 1) { $first_time_customer = true; } else { $first_time_customer = false; } tep_session_register('first_time_customer'); My SQL there has more than you would want for first time only customers. Mine includes something the client wanted so that anyone who hasn't ordered within the last 30 days automatically gets the discount again. In my shopping_cart.php I put this immediately after <!-- body //--> <?php include_once(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS.'easy_discount.php'); $easy_discount->reset(); if($first_time_customer) { if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) { $easy_discount->add('FREE','One Item FREE',5); } else { $easy_discount->remove_type('FREE'); } } ?> So that should be it (Aside from the code you would have added to application_top...and some other code for shopping_cart to make the discount show in the cart.....as long as the easy discount module is installed in the admin..and CHECK the SORT ORDER...I found if the sort order conflicts with anything else it wouldn't show up. Hope this helps!!! ^ Well, i finally got it working. Except one problem. At Checkout Confirmation, it does not include the discount in the grand total.

klumsi Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Thank you, I was able to get the discount shown/applied to the checkout confirmation. It was the sort order, heh. This code you have.. Would it be possible to take out the part that it reapplies the discount after 30 days? I am going to go attempt to make this one work now. Thank you!

klumsi Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 ^ I got it working. That's great. Actually, now I am curious.. The part that allows the customer to receive the discount again within 30 days.. Does this mean that if a customer signs up and never places an order, they will receive the discount again after 30 days of never placing an order? It's a bit early here, my brain isnt in "function" mode yet. :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klumsi Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 OK - So, now that i have gotten everything to work, what do i have to do now to get the Easy Discount to discount in %. Like i want 10% discount... how would that go? i tried this $value*0.1 that i found in an earlier thread, but that just does nothing. Thank you to anyone who can help me out!

klumsi Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 10% of what ? 10% discount off the order I want to take off 10% of the sub-total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxtel Posted February 13, 2006 Author Share Posted February 13, 2006 10% discount off the order I want to take off 10% of the sub-total. if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) { // cart contents $easy_discount->add('OST','10% discount of Sub Total',$cart->show_total()*0.1); // 10% of cart total } else{ $easy_discount->remove_type('OST'); // remove discount if present and cart gets empty } you can put this in application_top. you can also use the order object to calculate the discount but then you cannot set it before going to checkout because the object will not exist until then.

It's a bit early here, my brain isnt in "function" mode yet. :huh: Uh oh, you've created a logic loop in your question!! The universe is about to implode. If a customer signs up and never places an order...then it will always be true that they have no order in the past 30 days and thus qualify for one free item. (It doesn't accumulate) No order in 10 years...one free item....no order in 6 months....one free item. An order 29 days ago..no free item. :D Does anyone know how to make it NOT calculate sales tax on a discounted item? It seems to be taking the pre-discount total, calculating the tax, then subtracting the discount. For now I've set the discount to include tax...but for accounting purposes it would be best if the tax amount was actually correct, and calculated on the POST-discount amount. I will dig around to see if this was already answered..I didn't see it anywhere but I may have just missed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 what's the other stuff ? Opps - Didn't see that stuff above. I'll try that solution and post my results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Ok.. Everything is showing up. But - I can't tell if it charges the discounted ammount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klumsi Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) { // cart contents $easy_discount->add('OST','10% discount of Sub Total',$cart->show_total()*0.1); // 10% of cart total } else{ $easy_discount->remove_type('OST'); // remove discount if present and cart gets empty } you can put this in application_top. you can also use the order object to calculate the discount but then you cannot set it before going to checkout because the object will not exist until then. Thank you, that works great - I have it set up so when a new customer registers, they receive a 10% discount off their sub-total on their first order. However, i tested it out. The discount works, but after i place an order, the discount remains inside the shopping cart box with a (- $0.35 - example) with no items inside the cart. If i go and place more items inside the cart, i am still able to purchase with the 10% discount until i manually log out (even after closing browser, cookie keeps me logged in). This is not good as i know many customers wont bother to log out. Even after i log out, the negative discount still remains inside the shopping cart box, and after logging back in, the discount still shows in the shopping cart box until i visit the actual shopping cart and it realizes the discount does not apply since that customer already placed an order.

klumsi Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Ignore my above post - it wouldnt allow me to modify it. I fixed most of my problem, except I can still make more purchases with the 10% discount until i manually log out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 Am I the only one with the tax problem? I think the only solution may be to have the discount apply to a specific item in the cart to reduce it's pre-tax price, or have the discount appear as it's own special product in the cart with a negative price???
