I have made a gift certificate product under Gift Certificates Category. I want to have a list of available gift cerificate amounts but the attributes won't allow me to place : quantity (1)...$25, Quantity (1)....$50, Quantity (1)...$100
How do i get around this? Do i price these by attributes? Do I make a drop down list? Any advice would help!
Thanks!
In the Demo Date, there is a Gift Certificate setup as Priced by Attribute where the Product Price is set to 0.00 ...
Then make an Option Name such as:
Amount
as a Radiobutton ...
and then add Option Values to it such as:
$5.00
$10.00
$15.00
$25.00
$50.00
$100.00
Then add them to the Product in the Attributes Controller ... with the Price set on each Attribute ...
Dear all,
I have set up Gift Certificate as a product under "Gift Certificate" category
I want to send the Gift Certificate to a particular customer under admin panel, how can I do so?
There is "Mail Gift Certificate" under admin panel, but the page cannot be displayed when I go there, what is the problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks
How many customers do you have in your database?
Depending on your server and number of customers, the page could be timing out trying to draw the dropdown for the customer list ...
The problem I'm having isn't with releasing or purchasing, its when a new user redeems their gift certificate during checkout via the code. It will give a green box at the top saying it was redeemed successfully but it doesn't give the user an option to apply an amount towards the purchase. is there a fix for this or do I have something setup wrong?
all help is appreciated in advance
If you test this, and purchase a Gift Certificate ... then release it in the Admin ... then go to purchase something else ... do you see the Apply on the checkout_payment page? :unsure:
The goal of what I want to do is have my users redeem gift certificates via redemption code and NOT the link that gets sent through email (this is so I can sell them offline).
To test this what I did was mail myself a gift certificate through the admin area, took the redemption code and started the checkout process. I redeemed the gift certificate after registering (before confirm order). It gave me a redemption successful message (which I verified in the admin area) but it didn't give me the apply amount box. I then clicked confirm order, it went to the order page, then it forwarded me to paypal without applying the gift certificate amount. To get the apply amount box I had to click back to the page in which I redeemed the gift certificate and then I had that option.
My problem here is that for a new user its not obvious that they have to click back to checkout after clicking confirm order in order to get the apply amount box, so I would like to know if there is a way to change this, or am I redeeming these codes in a bad way, or do I have something setup wrong?
thank you
Test to see if you enter the GV code, and hit enter ... does it get redeemed and now show the Apply box?
it gets redeemed (I get the green message) but I don't get the apply box, the only time I get the apply box is when I click confirm and then I click back via the top menu
The Apply Amount: box does not show unless there is a GV balance in the customer's account ...
You could change this by customizing the Gift Certificate module and change:
to read:Code:function selection_test() {
if ($this->user_has_gv_account($_SESSION['customer_id'])) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
This would display the Apply Amount: with or without a current balance so that the customer can enter the GV Redeem Code, the Apply Amount, Select PayPal and click CONTINUE and when you get to the checkout_confirmation you will see the Success Message on the Redeem of the Gift Certificate and the amount entered in the Apply on the Order so that when the customer goes to PayPal the amount has been deducted ...Code:function selection_test() {
if ($this->user_has_gv_account($_SESSION['customer_id'])) {
return true;
} else {
return true;
}
}
