coupon code

[Guest]

I know there are a few coupon modules I need to alow customers to add a coupon code that would give them a set doller amount off their total. What module do you use for this purpose?

 

 

Something easy install and easy maintain I hope

Ahh, you had to stick that last line in there. There are a number of contributions that might do that for you. Gift Vouchers would but it is very difficult to install. There is a new Easy Discount one that is supposed to install easliy and might do it but, from what I undertand, very few are able to get it to work. Your best best would be to search the contributions section for "Coupon" and see what comes up.

you'll probably wind up using Credit Class and Gift Vouchers as there is no other contribution that offers it's flexibilty. It's a lot to install no doubt, and I had heard the horror stories when I was in your position but it actually wasn't THAT bad..... :D

you need to go to

 

admin/includes/languages/english.php and

 

add:

 

define('BOX_HEADING_GV_ADMIN', 'Vouchers/Coupons');

define('BOX_GV_ADMIN_QUEUE', 'Gift Voucher Queue');

define('BOX_GV_ADMIN_MAIL', 'Mail Gift Voucher');

define('BOX_GV_ADMIN_SENT', 'Gift Vouchers sent');

define('BOX_COUPON_ADMIN','Coupon Admin');

Does your host offer a control panel or something for you to manage your account with? The easiest way to do this is with MyPhp Admin. If you're not sure what or where it is located, contact your host.

You have to access your database via phpMyAdmin. Once there then, if you have more than one database, just highlight the name of the database you wish to use. Affter that click on the SQL tab, then use the Browse box to locate the sql file for CCGV on your local computer. Then click the Go button.

 

Before you do this, download a backup of your existing database via your osCommerce admin panel --> Tools --> Backup.

I have that but it only has an option to add to it manualy I don't have anything for uploading to it

In which case you need to take the code out of the sql file and copy and paste it into the SQL text box. Make sure to leave out the top part about how it was created and when etc - just run the code.
