php help with tpl_product_info_display.php

[JamesM]

Is there an if function I can use if a product is on Special?

I'd like to display a different background image for Special items without being forcing to change product type.

eg,

If product is on sale, display fancy new background
else display normal background.

Thanks :)

You could try

if (zen_get_products_special_price($products_id, true) != false) {

-- Your code in here --

}

If you leave out the 2nd parameter it will detect both specials and products with sale prices.

Thanks for the quick response...

<?php if (zen_get_products_special_price($products_id, true) != false) { ?>
<div>TEST</div>
<?php } ?>

I tried this in tpl_product_info_display.php, but nothing changed on normal priced products, Sales or Specials when viewing those products.



About the 2nd parameter too, sorry, but my php knowledge is pretty much 0, so I'll need a little help with that lol would I remove ", true" ?

Thanks again :)

I apologize. I didn't intend the condition to be used literally, but should have made that clear. You need to substitute something for $products_id. In tpl_product_info_display that would probably be $_GET['products_id'].

oooooh, thank you so much :)

Its working for Specials perfectly, and thats exactly what I need, so a bit thumbs up for you

Out of interest though, can it be done for Sales too? (not working atm)

<?php if (zen_get_products_special_price($_GET['products_id'], true) != false) { ?>
<div>TEST</div>
<?php } ?>

Sorry, didn't answer your 2nd question, but you were right on the money with your theory. Do exactly as you suggested or change the "true" to "false" to also include sales.

hmmm, it doesn't seem to be working for any product under these categories:

Sale Percentage »
Sale Deduction »
Sale New Price »

Which I guess are the Sale price items... Am I missing something?

Hello!
Love Zen Cart, but my Add to Cart buttons just disappeared and I can't seem to figure out what the issue is. I do know it's most likely an error in tpl_product_info_display.php page. They were showing but also had "products_qty_box_status == 0 or $products_quantity_order_max== 1" above the Add to Cart button. When I placed "//" in line 38, it went away along with the Add to Cart button. Now my site is showing, "Quantity: Contact Us" where the Add to Cart button should be.

I'm using version 1.3.9b

Any suggestions? I'd greatly appreciate it!!
