Product Discounts based on quantity ordered

[rmn]

I have a customer store that sells wine and other non-wine products. I need to setup a discount like the following:
If a shopper orders 6-11 bottles of any type of wine, they receive a 10% discount.
If a shopper orders 12 or more bottles of any type of wine, they receive a 20% discount.

The wine ordered can come from different categories. The discount cannot apply to non-wine products.

Also, is there a way in the cart to show the shopper that the quantity discount has been applied to the product?

Thanks in advance.

Quantity discounts on mixed products is not a feature of Zen Cart at this time.

Hi
I have searched the forum for about 2 hours or more and this problem seems the closest to mine. So if it can't be done- is there a close second that may solve the problem.
My dilema is :- I have backing tracks for sale in different product catagories and if I apply a discount structure for one procuct it doesn't allow it to be used for all the products in that catogory and sub-catagory, what I mean is if after choosing 5 different tracks(songs) they get them for £4 instead of £5 if they choose 10 from any of the products listed under the different sub catagories they get them for £3. I have tried many, many ways to achieve this but failed every time. Is there something I am not seeing! Can't see the wood from the trees!
thanks
I also sell products in other catagories that i would'nt what this discount structure which compounds the issue!

Look at the Quantity Discounts contribution; it does mixed discounts based on category or total items, etc. See the help at

We use this mod on two of our three sites! It will fill your needs and then some. Just wish I could add and edit the discounts without so many clicks in the Price Manager. {just a suggestion - great mod swguy}

Just to clarify John's remarks: the Quantity Discount contribution does not use the Products Price Manager - this is the native Zen Cart Quantity Discount feature.

Hey, I'm really sorry swguy. I thought that I had installed YOUR mod. Crap, can you tell me how yours is different? If I have thousands of discounts set up this way, can I edit them with Your mod? Will yours be easier?

I have a new site I am working on, what will I see different with
your discounts mod?

The native Quantity Discounts feature in Zen Cart is not a mod - it's part of the core code. It uses the products price manager to set discounts on a per item basis.

The Quantity Discounts contribution is a piece of software I wrote; it sets discounts globally based on various parameters. The help (including a comparison with the native QD mechanism) is here:
