DUAL Pricing v2

[madfastride]

I checked my database and there is an entry for "customers_whole" in the zen_customers table. Originally the file was marked "customer_whole", note the lack of the 's'. So I made the modification here. But it still doesn't work. Perhaps I don't understand how the $SESSION widget works to troubleshoot further.

Ed, the table in the DB should be names "customers_whole" and the $_SESSION should be named "customer_whole" without the "s." This is just the difference in naming conventions Zen-Cart likes to keep plural table names so I stick to that for the DB. But in my writing it doesn't help me to stick to a plural $_SESSION name when I'm only referring to one customer. All right enough explanation there, but all in all the module will never work with the table named "customer_whole" change it back to "customers_whole."
Is the price changing according to the customer's login level? I'd check the includes/modules/pages/login/header_php.php file and see if it's uploaded correctly or properly saved. Next I'd log out of Zen Cart make sure your test customer is set to a whole sale level and then log back in and retest. Let me know if this helps.

Cheers,

Thanks for your help.. you pointed me in the right direction and I was able to get it fixed!

I actually had two issues going on..

The first was that I somehow missed the file you mentioned to look at, header_php, I didn't update that file with your changes.

So, I did that, but when I did, I can into problem #2, which was I missed the database statement

$_SESSION['customer_whole'] = $check_customer->fields['customers_whole']; 

in the file which loaded the test variable into the SESSION array.

The reason I missed it was because I am running on v1.37 and have the master password contribution installed, so the changes were not easy to spot.

Luckily with your help, I was able to zone in on the file causing the issue.

So.. THANK YOU!!! I'm all fixed up now.

Just installed DP1.5 to Zen Cart 1.3.8a.

I tested by setting a customer wholesale level to 1 and set a few products product to have only one wholesale price level.

When I log in as the wholesale customer, I have a couple of problems:

1. All prices shown on the front page and product info page are RETAIL price.

Only if I add the item to shopping cart, then the price in the shopping cart page will show wholesale price.


2. If a product has discount(specials) for retail price AND wholesale price... the product added to shopping cart will follow the discounted RETAIL price, not the wholesale price.



Any ideas/suggestions what I did wrong?

1. All prices shown on the front page and product info page are RETAIL price.

You should log out, and log back in. The new release uses session and the cart won't work properly without them. If that doesn't work read a few posts back and check the login/header_php.php file, make sure it's uploaded.

2. If a product has discount(specials) for retail price AND wholesale price... the product added to shopping cart will follow the discounted RETAIL price, not the wholesale price.

I don't understand this. Can you explain more. I don't remember a way to add specials to the WS price. If the discount is below the WS price the special will show for WS customers, if it's above the WS price then it's shopping as usual.

what had you done wrong? I don't have the wholesale box under the email address.

I installed the module, everything is in the right place, installed the SQL patches,
but i don't see the following (mentioned in the Read Me file):

Pick a customer and edit them.

You will see a new text box under the email address box.

I don't have this (a box under the email address.)

Any ideas what I've done wrong?

Was I supposed to install the earlier versions first and then add V.2?

PS: I'm not using group pricing.

Not for lack of trying, I cannot make the wholesale price box show up in my admin/products. I can indicate customers as wholesale, but nothing in the products. I found similar posts, but everyone seems to figure it out on their own.

I have read every post in this whole thread which made for a crappy sunday, but I have exhausted myself. I have uninstalled and re-installed. So please pardon my stupidity - I need help.

It should be at the bottom of the light blue box. The field is labeled "Wholesale Price (Net)" It is controlled by "admin/includes/modules/products/colect_info.php" Make sure that the correct version of this file is uploaded.

Thanks so much for that. The file in question was there and I had re-installed it a couple times. In retrospect I think that it may have been a corruption issue. The downloaded files including the text files were crashing me. So a corrupt download was probably the problem. I deleted the first download and re-downloaded it, re-copied the files over and what-do-you-know! Working!

Hi there

I installed the latest version of Dual Pricing on zencart 1.38 and it works great besides one thing:
I can't make the attributes work!

I'm not using "Pricing By Attributes" (that means that the product's price doesn't matter - all the prices come from the attributes). Instead I do have a main price for the product and when the product has attributes the price is being adjusted to the right price (like +1.50$ or something like that).

I couldn't figure out how to make it work. Where and how do I put the wholesale price for attributes? at the attributes controller? I tried using commas(,) and dashes (-) but nothing works, it doesn't even save more than one price....

Did somebody got it work good with the attributes?

Thanks for this great module and i'll appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks

I have the Dual Pricing addon working fine, except I was wondering how to get rid of the "Starting at:" After the Retail Price: and Wholesale Price:? My Product Info page looks like this.

Retail Price: Starting at: $299.99
Wholesale Price: Starting at: $299.99

I went in and blanked out the Starting at: in the english.php file

define('TEXT_BASE_PRICE','Starting at: ');

So it does show up correctly, but was wondering how to fix the tpl_product_info_display.php file to get rid of the 'TEXT_BASE_PRICE' in the pricing. Please let me know. Thanks
