    Default coupon converts percentage into dollars!

    Hi there guys,

    ZC 1.3.0.1

    both my client and I have tried to create a coupon that will allow for free shipping & 20% off. When we create the coupon, we put "20%" in the amount entry, and check free shipping.

    After it has saved it, here is what I get in the summary box for that coupon:

    Coupon Name :: FF No Shipping
    Coupon Amount :: $20.00 (I entered 20%)
    Start Date :: 10/16/2006
    End Date :: 12/30/2006
    Uses per Coupon :: Unlimited
    Uses per Customer :: Unlimited
    Valid Product List :: NONE
    Valid Categories List :: NONE
    Date Created :: 10/16/2006
    Date Modified :: 10/16/2006
    When we order something, here's what the coupon comes out as:

    Sub-Total: $54.00
    Table Rate (Best Way): $22.00
    Discount Coupon: FFNS06 : $-22.00
    Total: $54.00
    It deducted the shipping, but not only did it not deduct 20%(like I entered), but it's not even deducting $20(like it turned it into when I submitted the coupon).

    How do I get my coupons to work?

    thanks,
    json

    Coupons can be set for: Percentage, Amount or Free Shipping

    You cannot, at this time, combine both Free Shipping and one of the other settings ...

    And customers can only use one coupon per order, correct? Meaning that the owner will have to choose between one or the other?

    Just trying to make sure I have it right before I pass it on.

    Yes this is correct ...

    You could customize the code to work otherwise ...

    Or, you could contact a lucky contestant on the Zen Cart Team to write this custom code for you ...

    Or, you could post something on the Commercial Help Wanted and have a stranger write some custom code for you ...

    What the heck that's stupid the Zen Cart team should fix that. Can anyone tell us how or where that code would be? I mean if you can't use both a percentage discount AND free shipping then the option shouldn't be there or there should at least be some type of validation to that field.
