Product Type Book (by moku)

[berrybatens]

Hi,

Can someone help me out with the following:
The prices of my books are shown as follows.
Book price $ 8,63 ($9,95 Incl tax)
How can I show only the price including tax (without the ($.,.. Incl tax)and the red color) and not show the price excl tax.

Thanx...

Hi Berrybattens

Yes I use a U.K oriented display for price,

this should work... if you locate line 283 in file
(your current template)/tpl_product_book_info_display.php

or close to where it says '//uses uk price function jph'mod

change the function that is called here...

zen_get_products_display_price_uk((int)$_GET['products_id']);

to

zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']);

Note this line above, is part of a longer line of code..

This is the 'normal zencart price display, you can show tax or not, with an admin setting separately.

Thank you very much.
I was already looking at this for ages...

Now I am going to break my head on how to add the extra fields to the search function.

Regards,
Berry...

I have used this module on two sites and the results have been good.

My client needs one more thing. For every purchase of a particular amount , he wants to give another book free worth a particular price.
As the purchase goes higher, the gift gets costlier. For e.g.
With purchase worth 500$, he wants to give 75$ worth book free. There will be a list of books for selection for the gift.

How is it possible

Hi Everyone
I don't know if I am in the right thread but I am going to ask anyway.
Does anyone know why you cannot have a Document General as a Featured Product or as a Special Product or is it me???
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards

I have successfully installed the book store using Zen. But authors name is nor getting displayed under the book. All the tables are correct.
If I select the author's name, then a list of books by that author is showna nd it shows the author name also, but not viewing the category products normally.

Please help

Hi,

I am really breaking my head here over the search function. When I enter a search command I always get all the books double in the results. Does anyone knows how to solve this?

Thanx!

doubling up of books in search results usually needs 'select distinct ..' in the search sql, you're just getting the same 'rows' repeated at present.

btw there will hopefully be an isbn search adaptation for combined sidebox in the near future

do the authors appear on each book display correctly?

Unsure about your book gifts situation, maybe someone else knows if this bonus free item can be arranged. Zencart tends only to do what it does, if you see what I mean.

doc general, is it actually a product? I thought there was a doc product type as well..
this query should be a new subject really, in the forum threads, you would get more attention

Any options of free gifts. A buys books worth 500$, he is shown a drop down list of books, each worth 75$, to select as free.
Same with high purchases.

Also how do I setup the option of Book search, like it is on http://www.hareslade.com/zc/index.php

Your help is reqd.

Thanks in advance

my site's book search is the 'combined' sidebox, in the add-on's fileset, look inside '1_BOOK_MAIN_FILES' folder, for folder 'OPTIONAL_COMBINED_BOOK_SEARCH_SIDEBOX'

The /catalog folder in there contains the files for the combined sidebox, upload those... and you should apply the sql patch as well via admin, using add_to_mysql_multibox_by_admin_patch.txt..

The sidebox will need to be switched on in admin, its called a multibox.

The authors name length (for the sidebox's authors dropdown list) may need setting to 20 characters or so in admin (in maximums section).
