DUAL Pricing v2

[dbltoe]

I apologize if this answer is somewhere obvious. 1st, I love this plugin, it's awesome. I installed Dual Pricing V1.8 in Zen Cart V1.5 even though it wasn't 'approved' for V1.5 Zen (at the time D-P V1.8 was the latest version). Everything seems to still work great. Now that there is a newer version of Dual Pricing that is written for Zen 1.5, I would like to upgrade D-P, just in case there are unintended consequencess from the earlier install. My website is www.wholesalebodyboards.com .. Could someone please point me in the direction of the upgrade procedure for going from Dual pricing v1.8 to V2.1 please? And tell me if I should even do that...... Also, should I upgrade Zen Cart first? There is a new version of Zen Cart and I do need to upgrade that don't I? Will Dual Pricing v2.1 work with the latest Zen V1.5.1? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! Thanks!! :)

You're probably not getting an answer as you've gone outside what most would do. You installed a mod that was not built for the version of ZC you were using or one that anyone would be testing. Hence, no one in a similar situation to be able to help.

If you have a backup before the installation of 1.8, you should restore it and move on from there.

If you have no backup, you might see if there are uninstall instructions in the 1.8 version. If not, you will need to return any modified files to their original state and remove new files added by the 1.8 mod. I do know that 1.9 had an uninstall.sql but am not familiar with 1.8.

As per my previous post, if you really have it working, you may want to not change anything. I cannot find (nor have I been presented with) evidence that 2.1 works as advertised with a clean ZC install.

Well I would start with the 1.8 version and run the uninstall sql file

Remove the files

Install the files for 2.1
Run the 2.1 install sql & you should be good

Back up the database before doing any db work

Check out the readme.txt around line 84

Not sure if you are referring to the v1.9 ReadMe file because there is nothing about the EP4 (only the Change Log and there's no reference to EP).

Probably my bad because I didn't specify that is version 1.9 for 1.3x

Seems the fix in 2.1 might work with 1.9. Worth a try on the test site.

So the ONLY thing to do is add that to the english file?

On v1.9 there's an EP file for admin that 2.1 doesn't have. That's initially why I asked the question.

Has anyone here used EP4 and Dual Pricing 1.9 that can give me some advice or heads-up of their solution?

I will eventually figure this out, but in the meantime I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue and knows what was missed. I installed v2.1 on ZC 1.5 and used WinMerge to work through the similar files. I also use the price updater module for updating the price on the product detail page prior to going to cart - which appears to be in working order under normal priced items both for retail and wholesale values. The issue I am having is the price by attributes - but my issue is the TRADE box on the attributes controller isn't there. In other words, there is no where to provide a TRADE value (or comma seperated list for that matter). Can anyone direct me to the area in the attributes controller file (or elsewhere) this area of code is located? I am certain i missed it in the merge.

Much appreciated.

BOTTOM LINE

1. Has anyone been able to get this mod working with a clean install, the customer set to OTHER THAN level 1, and a product set to Product Priced by Attributes?

THANX

I think I know what your issue is, but I am unable to test it because I do not have mine setup quite right yet. But on the Attributes controller page, you will need to add the attributes price for EACH level of wholesale in the "Trade" box under the Prices and Weights area... in other words, in the wholesale price of the product page, you add a hyphen separated list for the level prices, right? Well in the attributes controller page you add a COMMA separated list of THAT attributes price - and that represents each levels price for the attribute. I would imagine that if the code is written to traverse an array of attributes prices (not taking into account for a single "default for all" value, then when it checks for the second position and doesn't find one, then any wholesale account of level 2 isn't going to have an attribute price. I am guessing here, because I do not havbe the TRADE box in the attributes controller where that comma separated list would go ;) <-- working on that now (I think I bunked up the merge).

EXAMPLE.
You have a product:
Retail: $10
Wholesale #1: $8
Wholesale #2: $6

Attribute 1 Retail: $5
Attribute 1 Wholesale #1: $3
Attribute 1 Wholesale #2: $1

On the product page you add the wholesale prices like: 8.00-6.00 (8.00 is level one's price, and 6.00 is level two's price)
Then, on the attributes controller page, you set the Trade value for "attribute 1" as such: 3.00,1.00 (This should then provide a value for the attribute for level one AND level two)
I hope this helps.

@dbltoe,
My bad, I skimmed your post and missed your very clear description. What I wrote isn't going to help afterall. SORRY! lol

Sorry, trying to help without muddling my problem with 2.1. If I get that going, I can look deeper.
