Quantity Discounts for 1.3

[swguy]

Yes please do. I will fix this next time I update the software. This was just an oversight in
version 1.4.

Thanks and thanks again for your mod. Will visit your site for more.

Did you try it?

Install it and use discount units = currency, total by item, and set the levels per your client's needs.
This seems to be what you want.

I wanted to confirm it would do what I needed before I spent the time installing it.. Otherwise Plan B was to talk to my client about revamping her discount program.. Sounds like what you are saying is that your mod will do the discount calculation the way her current store works.. I'll give it a whirl and let you know if it works..

Okay I've installed this and it appears that it applies the discount across the board.. We want the discount to apply if a customer buys a certain number of a specific item in the store.. In other words

If a customer buys Item A and buys a certain quantity they will receive a discount which will vary depending on the quantity they buy.. But Item B doesn't have a quantity discount. So there is no discount no mater what quantity of Item B is purchased.

Oh and I should add that the items which will be discounted are in a different cateory than the ones that will not be discounted..

I have looked and played and it doesn't appear that the default product discount function or this contribution will do what I need.. Am I coming to the correct conclusion??

Just installed v1.4 on ZC 1.3.7
I have three discount levels applied to total quantity in cart. I set the following parameters 6, 12, & 20 % discount amounts with 100, 500, & 1000 discount levels.

I've tried different values for the above and regardless of what I enter there is always a 50% discount applied.

Thanks for any help. Looks like a fantastic contribution.

No. You need to look at the functions function exclude_category() and
exclude_product() so that you can discount only what you want.
Please read the help.

The 50% discount is caused by the bug I reported in 1.4; please delete the
line of code in setup() that does

$this->add_extra_level_discount(100, 50);

I will fix this asap.

My bad.. Reading is fundamental huh??? I skipped right over the rest of the Readme file assuming that everything could be tweaked from the Admin panel..

Many apologies.. GREAT contribution BTW.. (should be part of core code if you ask me..) Plus my client is happy as happy can be that we don't have to change her discount program.. Thanks for your patience..

Glad it worked out for you!
