Better Together Contribution Support Thread

dont know what i did, but i managed to fit it!

i do have one more question though, is it possible to do a discount like this?:

buy X get product made by manufacturer Y for 10% off

Also, how would I go about making all items "buy one get the second at a discount?"

There's no global command for 2 for 1, you'd have to do each one.

There's no support for manufacturers, just products and categories.

2 hours! 2 hours and still I can't get this working!

I have been over and over and over the install instructions which are stupidly easy.
I have checked, double checked and even triple cheked everything over and over again but still nothing.

I am using:
zc 1.3.8a
PHP Version: 5.2.2 (Zend: 2.2.0)

The only thing I can thin of is that I am not setting the parameters correctly.

I have the store set up like this:

Cat 1
-- sub cat 1a
-- subsub cat 1b
-- products

Cat 2
-- sub cat 2a
-- subcat 2b
-- subcat 2c
-- products

I want to specify -

Cat 1 - buy 2 get 3rd half price
I tried $this->add_cat_to_cat(1b, 1b, "%", 100);

Cat 2 - Buy 5 get 1 free
$this->add_fiveforone_cat(2c);

Is this correct? If not, help?

Thanks in advance.

You can't do the category operation you asked about with Better Together. Only parent categories are supported by default.

There is a FAQ section of the help page that explains this and many other common problems:

There is not support for five for one either; only two for one.

Ah, ok.

So even if I tried:

Cat 1
-- sub cat 1a
-- subsub cat 1b
-- products

Cat 2
-- sub cat 2a
-- subcat 2b
-- subcat 2c
-- products

I want to specify -

Cat 1 - buy 2 get 3rd half price
I tried $this->add_cat_to_cat(1, 1, "%", 100);

or

Cat 2 - Buy 5 get 1 free
$this->add_fiveforone_cat(2);

These wouldn't work either (which is actually better for me)?

Thanks for your fast response.

[swguy]

See previous response. There is no five for one support in better together, and "category" means parent category. Other options exist (see your PM), but you cannot do either of these things with the stock better together. Category behavior in my mods is explained in this page:

Is there a way, to manage the images? I mean... I want it a bit more smaller... but I don't want change the size of all the images of my site... just the better together images...
thanks in advance...

Nothing is built in to do this; you'd have to change the code.
