Dynamic Price Updater

[WillyWanka666]

Hi all

Firstly I need to apologise for being away from the forum thread for so long; it's unforgiveable but it has been quite a year

In the next 2 hours or so I'm going to be uploading a new version of DPU that will hopefully address the incompatibilities with MooTools... As soon as it's online I'll post here

I haven't yet had a chance to scan the thread for other issues but rest assured I am doing so... If anyone has a repeat question they'd like to respost please do so as I don't want to miss anything catching up (there's probably quite a lot)

Again I apologise to everyone who is having problems and promise that I have renewed my efforts to support the Updater

Cheers!

Dan

Please don't apologize. All your hard work is greatly appreciated. I just sent you an e-mail to my site per request. Thanks again and I hope to hear from you soon.

Hi

As promised I've uploaded a newer version of DPU to my website... Here's the link

http://chrome.me.uk/DPUv2_MTC.zip

For now I haven't replaced the original DPU so just use that link... Currently, the newer version is only to mitigate conflicts with the MooTools library

Thanks in advance to anyone that helps me test this new version... While I wait for feedback I'm going to start bolstering the routines used to derive the price (like the tax issue and certain discounts)

Watch this space!

Dan

P.S. The only file changed in the archive is includes/modules/pages/product_info/jscript_ajax_updater.php so you can choose to either upload that file alone or unzip and upload the lot... Either way should have the desired effect... Of course, if it doesn't please let me know

Gotta quick question:

How can I have the DPU show the price when a item is sold out? When the page is refreshed, the price shows at first until the DPU kicks in, then it goes to all zeros.

Great mod...I absolutely love it and clients do too!!

Found a new situation.

I've installed Ultimate Cross Sell module, and now DPU randomly shows the price from cross-sell items at the same page, not the "main item".

For example, the main item is $20, and cross-sell item is $10, then DPU will show the main item as $10 only. The good news is, it's still $20 when added to the shipping cart.

Hi Chrome, and congratulations for your work.

My real problem with the DPU is about the main product image replacement module, that I have also installed.

For example I have a guitar with various colors and different prices for each color, and I would like that when customer select via attributes a diferent color with different price, the main product image and the price change to show this option.

Can see an example here:

As you can see the price change, but not the main product image, if I disabled DPU, the main product image change when the attribute change, but not the price.

Do you know how can I resolve this?, is really important for our website. Thank you

Well... I crossed my fingers, hoped and wished the new version would resolve the conflict that we're all having between these two modules. It didn't. I was really hoping this would work because I really like the DPU. I think it sucks otherwise. Your customer has to get a calculator or go to their shopping cart to see what their product actually costs? Thats retarded, and the DPU solves this. I'll continue to subscribe to this thread, but I'm going to try and find an alternative, after I see if winmerge or the like can't point me in the right direction. I'm a php novice so, if the author can't figure this out, I doubt I will.

Hi

Hmmm, seems there's a Javascript Ajax conflict that isn't MT related... I'm investigating

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yess, is really a good job and the functionality with image replacement will be perfect

I think I've been a little misunderstood. I am extremely grateful for all the hard work you've done with the DPU. The DPU is fantastic for what it is, it just didn't fit my needs. The solution I used to accomplish my immediate goals was the product attributes pictures module. Please take note of the customization page and communicate your needs with Nick and he'll be happy to help. I got everything I wanted and then some. I'm very happy with the results. It seems that I've unintentionally crossed some lines here so this will be my last post in this thread. Once again thank you chrome for all your hard work.
