    Default Dangling carrot

    I'm in the process of porting the Dangling Carrot module from OSCommerce. As this is a time consuming project, i'm interested to know how many people may be interested in using it. If response is low, i'll probably throw it on the back burner for a while.

    Some description would probably help, so people know whether or not it is something they want...

    Good point, though i made the assumption that most people would know what dangling carrot was.

    Basically, it allows the site owner to offer free gifts, or discount on a particular item once a certain spend level has been reached. It will also tell the shopper when they look at there cart "spend xx.xx more and you qualify for "xxxxx" free gift.

    The title gives the general idea, but the details indicate that there would probably be a lot of people who would want this.

    Oh yes... long long time ago!

    It might be easier (and probably result in better code) to package up the mod described in that thread (and the wiki) instead of trying to translate osC code.

    Yes, i did see that some time ago, but in my opinion the OSC module is more workable.
    In view of the fact that i have already completed all of the admin side of the port, and am about halfway through the shop side of it, i don't want to just abandon it.

    Guess i'll carry on when i have some free time. someone may find it useful.

    strelitzia, how is the porting coming along? I switched one of my stores to Zen Cart and this is one of the modules I really miss.

    Thanks for doing this BTW!

    i too would like to know about this.

    My thoughts on the mod are: that a reverse coupon as well as preset packages.

    Coupon that gives a FREE gift or FREE Upgrade.
    Or pre define if you purchase certain products together or over a certain value you get a Free Gift or Free Upgrade

    I've been very busy with my business lately, but i've finally got round to blowing the dust off my files and i'm going to get on with the mod over the summer holiday. I'll keep you posted.

    Regards
