could you point us to directions on adding someone to a discount group after purchasing a product. Using the latest zen cart.

Around line 702 in the:
/includes/classes/order.php

you will see the line:

Code:

---

          $db->Execute("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_quantity = '" . $stock_left . "' where products_id = '" . zen_get_prid($this->products[$i]['id']) . "'");

---

Here you can check for the products_id with the:
zen_get_prid($this->products[$i]['id'])

If the products_id matches the products_id on the Product for the membership you can then update the table for:
customers

and the field for:
customers_group_pricing

for the customers_id from:
$_SESSION['customer_id']

Thank you so much. I will take a look and let you know how it goes.:lookaroun

You are most welcome ... let us know what customizations work best for you to manage this ... :cool:

sure!:smile:

I have a buy once - forever in group membership, I use the Group Pricing per item mod giving 2 groups of members 100% free products.

It works fine, except now I have 2 categories that I don't wish the group members to receive free but to purchase at the normal price.

When I price items for group members to receive free I use

Group B Price (Net): 0.0001
Group B Price (Gross): 0.0001
Group A Price (Net): 0.0001
Group A Price (Gross): 0.0001

Now with the 2 categories I wish for them to purchase I have tried

Group B Price (Net): 0.0000
Group B Price (Gross): 0
Group A Price (Net): 0.0000
Group A Price (Gross): 0


and even putting the actual price to no avail.

Either way it shows unit price/subtotal on 'Your Shopping Cart Contents' page, but when I go to checkout it shows discount of 100%

Does anybody know how I can fix this please?
Thank you in advance

That is what the Group Discount does ...

It takes all of the Products ordered and applies the Discount for that Group ... in this case 100% ... to all of the products ...

To have it behave otherwise, you will really be needing to customize the code to work with exclusions and exceptions to the concept of the "over all discount" that Group Discount was built to support ...

Not to be obtuse but can you spell this out a little better as to what the lines would actually be to code this? Such that all I'd need is the product ID? Likely simple but I am at a loss.
