Display Group name to Customer in Menu

[avf]

I like the group pricing mod and want to enable that on my site.
Here are 2 thoughts i have , if anyone has got that working it would be great for me to incorporate in the site.

1. First simply enough I want the customer to see in the title or in the menubar where there is "my account" what group is he a part of. So it should simply say something like "Group A"

2. I would like to display both the Regular price and the Group pricing at the product info page with the Regular price struck off with maybe the %age discount or discounted amount displayed there too

If anyone has included these it would be great to hear from you
Thanks

I got help from TheOracle and this is what was needed to display the group name in the top menu bar.

Now, if you'd like to display the group name right aside the 'My account' link, this is what you need to do.

// Step 1

In your includes/functions/extra_functions folder, create a new file named: group_pricing_functions.php .

Inside, paste the following content:

<?php

if (!function_exists('show_group_pricing_name')) {
function show_group_pricing_name($customers_id) {
global $db;

if ($customers_id <= 0) {
return false;

} else {

$customer_group_query = "select gp.group_name
from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " cu
left join " . TABLE_GROUP_PRICING . " gp on cu.customers_group_pricing = gp.group_id
where cu.customers_id = " . (int)$customers_id;
if ($customer_group = $db->Execute($customer_group_query)) {
return zen_output_string_protected($customer_group->fields['group_name']);
}
}
}
}
?>

// Step 2

In includes/templates/<your_template>/tpl_header.php file,

find:

<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li>

add right below:

<li><?php echo show_group_pricing_name($_SESSION['customer_id']); ?></li>

This should show the group name relatively right aside the 'My Account' link once the customer has logged in into his account.


THis works

Thanks to Oracle for the support

Now if we can display both the Actual and group pricing on the product page it would be an awesome Mod.
