Pricing Issues

[neddie]

I have a problem with a company called Taylor Made golf. I am only allowed to show the price of the goods on the main product page. Any where else i have to put 'click for price' How do I do that.

1. Allowed - https://vault1.secured-url.com/midla...products_id=69

2. not allowed - https://vault1.secured-url.com/midla...x&cPath=95_101

Is there a way of only showing the price on the product info page?

Again if you see anything on the site that I could improve please feel free to tell me www.midlandgolf.net

You can easily disable the price display in admin for listing pages, for all of your products.

Configuration > Product Listing, All Listing, etc.

If you need to do this for only some products it becomes more complicated. You would need to test for manufacturers_id when assembling the listing content.

I really need some help here. I can put the ring for price button on but I can't get rid of the price itself. I cannot show the price until the buyer wants to look at the main page of the product. Is there any way i can take the price off for one manufacuterer?

If you have the product listing set (in admin > Configuration > Product Listing) to display the manufacturer name, that information is available to the price display code in /includes/modules/your_template/product_listing.php.

Find this section

        case 'PRODUCT_LIST_PRICE':
        $lc_price = zen_get_products_display_price($listing->fields['products_id']) . '<br />';
        $lc_align = 'right';
        $lc_text =  $lc_price;

        // more info in place of buy now
        $lc_button = ''; 

and add this

        if ($listing->fields['manufacturers_name'] == 'Taylor Made') { //use the exact mfr name in your database
          $lc_text =  "click for price";
        } /* Taylor Made */ 

to get this

        case 'PRODUCT_LIST_PRICE':
        $lc_price = zen_get_products_display_price($listing->fields['products_id']) . '<br />';
        $lc_align = 'right';
        $lc_text =  $lc_price;
        if ($listing->fields['manufacturers_name'] == 'Taylor Made') {
          $lc_text =  "click for price";
        } /* Taylor Made */

        // more info in place of buy now
        $lc_button = ''; 

This will have the sole effect that the price will not display for this mfr; everything else will be the same. If this does not give the result you need, the code can be expanded to eliminate the whole button area.

Hi

I'm still having trouble with this click for price issue. Most od the site it is ok to put the price on. TaylorMade say you have to click to see price as shown
http://www.direct-golf.co.uk/product...product_type=4

I cannot find how to do this in ZC.

Is there any way round it.

What information do you intend to display in the product listing pages? Manufacturer name? Model number? Will all of the prohibited products be in one subcategory, and will all products in that subcategory be prohibited?

Can you post a link to your site?

If you look at this link the "call for Price" needs to be click for price. Then when you click into the product the price can be shown.

So to answer my questions, you are not displaying manufacturer name or model numbers in any explicit way.

I will assume you are going to have all the "prohibited" products, and no others, in "Taylor Made" subcategories (one of which has a cPath = 95_101).

Find this section in /includes/modules/your_template/product_listing.php:

        case 'PRODUCT_LIST_PRICE':
        $lc_price = zen_get_products_display_price($listing->fields['products_id']) . '<br />';
        $lc_align = 'right';
        $lc_text =  $lc_price;

        // more info in place of buy now
        $lc_button = ''; 

and add this

        if (in_array($_GET['cPath'],explode(",",'list_cPaths_to_hide_prices_on_here,separated_by_commas,and_no_spaces')) ) { //replace text with 95_101, and other cPaths

          $lc_text =  "click for price";
        } /* Taylor Made */ 

to get this

        case 'PRODUCT_LIST_PRICE':
        $lc_price = zen_get_products_display_price($listing->fields['products_id']) . '<br />';
        $lc_align = 'right';
        $lc_text =  $lc_price;
        if (in_array($_GET['cPath'],explode(",",'95_101,127_133,etc')) ) {
          $lc_text =  "click for price";
        } /* Taylor Made */

        // more info in place of buy now
        $lc_button = ''; 

This will replace the price text with "click for price", leaving the "more info" button for function.
It is possible to make the more info say click for price instead; this is considerably more involved as the function has many alternatives embedded in the code.
