Better Together Contribution Support Thread

[RWerksman]

Hi Scott,

What I am looking to do is give 10% of any item in multiple categories with the purchase of one item. My code currently looks like this:

$this->add_prod_to_cat(116, 10, "%", 10);
$this->add_prod_to_cat(116, 11, "%", 10);
$this->add_prod_to_cat(116, 12, "%", 10);
$this->add_prod_to_cat(116, 28, "%", 10);
$this->add_prod_to_cat(116, 15, "%", 10);
$this->add_prod_to_cat(116, 6, "%", 10);

My problem is that it find one item that the discount applies to (say in cat 10) and it basically shuts down despite there being other items in the cart that qualify for a discount. Is there a way to get it to apply a discount to correctly?

Additionally (and this might be slightly off) but does category discounts work on the top category (i.e. anything in the store)

Thanks,

Rob

Better Together pairs up items. Once an item is used in a pairing, it's not available for further discounting.

Thank you for such an awesome mod. I tried to look through this thread, but didn't see coupons mentioned.

When a customer orders, it appears the better together deal is discounted when they use a coupon....then taken off the order total.

No coupons are involved. If they buy the products you have specified as "better together," they get the discount you specify in the setup() function.

We have several orders in which the coupon (from the coupon mod for a prize or something or promotional) was applied and then they got the better together discount on top of that. Do we have our order total module sort wrong? Better Together was at 292 in the sort.

KSoup, I'm not sure what you're asking here. You can change the sort order, but the discounting modules don't know about each other, so discounts are cumulative.

Thanks!! That answered my question... we just have to make sure a coupon doesn't include an item that may be discounted by better together. :)

Your time is appreciated.

swguy which mod allows for a 5% discount off all other items in a category or group once you have purchased the first item. I wanted to offer 5% off all items in a category once one particular item is purchased for example.
