The order needs to be a minimum of $6.99, but the coupon should only work with that specific product in the cart.

If the order is a minimum of $6.99 you are showing give $6.99 off and a minimum of $16.97 ... how much is the Product? Is the Product amount part of this minimum order amount of $6.99?

This is going to confuse you, but I'll do my best to explain.

We release a new product every week and each week we have a new free gift. The new product being the free gift.
In our marketing, we say that they have to spend at least $9.98 in order to get the new kit for free. If you add the value of the free gift to the minimum, you get $16.97. Once the $6.99 (kit value) is deducted, you're back at $9.98.

So yes, the kit value is also $6.99, the coupon technically gives it to them for free as long as they meet the minimum and have that specific kit in their cart. This worked fine for over 2 years with 1.3.8

Sorry, my previous post saying that the minimum purchase was suppose to be $6.99, was wrong. See post #13

See if this version of:
/includes/modules/order_total/ot_coupon.php

works for you ...

**sykadelx** · 2 May 2012, 05:08 PM

does that need to go into /includes/modules/order_total/ and not /includes/modules/ ?

Thanks for the catch ... that is correct ...

**sykadelx** · 2 May 2012, 05:30 PM

Yup. That did the trick! Thank you! What does that mean? Bug? By Design?

It is by design that Discount Coupons on the Minimum are based on the Products that the Discount Coupon are valid for and not the total of the order ...

Gotcha! So the file you gave me was more of a customization? I'm guessing that the code changed since v 1.3.8? Does this mean I need to buy you dinner?
