Better Together Contribution Support Thread

Another question: I'd like to create a scenario where if a customer buys 5 units of one product they get a free product from another category. Can this be done?

Question 1: They go into includes. (If they went into admin/includes, there would be an admin directory at the top level). If you haven't installed a mod before, please see http://www.thatsoftwareguy.com/zencart_install_mod.html

Question 2: No. Better Together is "Buy A, Get B at a discount."

Is there a way to restrict the number of associated items that are displayed? I have Better Together with Checkout Candy with the buy it now button.

For example if I set up item A to have items B, C, D, E, and F associated with it, and I add item A to my cart, all five associated items will show in my shopping cart. Is there a way to only have two randomly show from the list of B, C, D, E, and F?

Please email me with questions on my commercial offerings; they are not supported on the Zen Cart forum.

Hi Scott,

Sorry if this has been explained elsewhere, but I'm trying to figure out if Better Together is what I need. I want to offer a discount on any items in a category, as long as 2 or more are ordered. This isn't a typical volume discount, because I want it to go across products.

If it makes a difference in your recommendation. All products in this category are the same price - $89 - and once the threshold of two items is purchased then all items in this category should sell for $74 - so one for $89, two for $148, three for $222. Is there a better way of offering this kind of discount besides "Better Together?"

Using zc v1.50 . . . thanks, Sean

For this, you'll want to use Quantity Discounts.

You do need to do more! You need to read the documentation.

Hello,

I have a quick question about the mod. I understand that you can setup a buy 2 get 1 free for specific products or categories. Am I able to set this up for all products belonging to a specific manufacturer.

Thanks so much

You can only do buy one (not 2) get one free for products and categories, not for manufacturers.
