Minimun price per category or per manufacturer

[articulosdebelleza]

Hi I am using the latest Zencart, I am very close to finish the site but can't resolve this.

I need that the zen-cart have a minimum price PER CATEGORY or PER MANUFACTURER, because my categories are the name of the manufacturers.

Actually I'm using the module Minimum Order from http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=599

But this module only allows to put a minimum price for the order total. I thought long ways to avoid need this but isn't possible, so I decided to create the module or modify the module "Minimum Order".

Can you help me?

I think that to modify the module Minimum Order i will have to modify the file class.minimum_order_amount.php :

   */
  function minimum_order_amount() {
    global $zco_notifier;
//      $_SESSION['cart']->attach($this, array('NOTIFIER_CART_GET_PRODUCTS_START', 'NOTIFIER_CART_GET_PRODUCTS_END'));
    $zco_notifier->attach($this, array('NOTIFY_HEADER_END_SHOPPING_CART', 'NOTIFY_HEADER_START_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING', 'NOTIFY_HEADER_START_CHECKOUT_PAYMENT', 'NOTIFY_HEADER_START_CHECKOUT_CONFIRMATION'));
  }
  /**

  function update(&$class, $eventID) {
    global $messageStack;
    global $currencies;
    switch ($eventID) {
      case 'NOTIFIER_CART_GET_PRODUCTS_END':
      case 'NOTIFY_HEADER_END_SHOPPING_CART':
        if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() > 0 && MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT > 0) {
          if($_SESSION['cart']->show_total() < MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT) {
            $_SESSION['valid_to_checkout'] = false;
            $messageStack->add('shopping_cart', sprintf(TEXT_ORDER_UNDER_MIN_AMOUNT, $currencies->format(MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT)) . '<br />', 'caution');
          }
        }
        break;
      case 'NOTIFY_HEADER_START_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING':
      case 'NOTIFY_HEADER_START_CHECKOUT_PAYMENT':
      case 'NOTIFY_HEADER_START_CHECKOUT_CONFIRMATION':
        if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() > 0 && MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT > 0) {
          if($_SESSION['cart']->show_total() < MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT) {
            zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART));
          }
        }
        break;
      default:
        break;
    }
  }
}
?>

Really I don't know what to do after this. I really would appreciate your help.
