DUAL Pricing v2

[AmriloJim]

I've been searching for three days and still have not found suitable answers:

Most items at my site are priced by attribute. I want to display both Retail and Preferred pricing, no matter what the customer's wholesale pricing level.

I'm using radio buttons to display attributes. Currently, the display looks like:

• Quart ($10.50) (2 lbs.)

What I'd like it to look like is:

• Quart (2 lbs.)
  Retail: $10.50 Preferred: $8.60

My shop is ZC 1.3.8 with Dual Pricing 1.5.

I am still looking for a way to turn the Retail off completly. This store is a wholesale only store, yet yesterday someone placed an order at the retail price. Needless to say, I'm back here today searching again for a possible solution.

thank you,

This may not be practical if your store has a large inventory or a great number of customers, but one solution is to swap your retail and wholesale tiers, making wholesale the default (0) and retail (1). That means everybody who enters the store has wholesale status and you'd have to "upgrade" them to the retail tier.

Remember to edit tpl_product_info_display.php.

Hello, I have a quick question:

My installation is adding retail price to a cart when not logged in, and then when a wholsale customer logs in during checkout - it doesn't update the price.

Is there an update to make this work? Or any other sort of workaround?

Thanks!

(sorry if this is a repost - I didn't find the answer easily in this thread)

AmriloJim, Thanks for the information. Ever since taking over this project I haven't touched the attributes side of this module. Attributes in Zen-Cart make no sense to me and I've done everything humanly possible to avoid them. As I understand it though the original Dual Pricing did work with attributes? Have you gotten it to work at all? or are you just trying to change the appearance of the pricing?

If there is a new support link, I wish someone would post it.

what happened to the help on this forum?
It seems to have vanished. Did another thread get started someplace else. I am very confused!

Sorry, I have been working hard on other projects... Time is a little bit short right now. It goes a long way when I get a thank you:

Betty,

I believe that a few pages ago I posted a work around so that every time a customer is added to the DB they are added as a whole sale customer. This would be a solution for you. Please let me know if you can't find it.

I started off by posting this in the wrong place... I'll try again... It was late.

Right now I'm trying everything to see if I can show the first wholesale level to all customers- logged in or not. I want everything else to work like it currently does but statically show the potential wholesale price if the customer were to become a wholesale customer. I'm thinking that since that price is entered into the database, we should be able to capture it and put it on the product info template- Am I thinking too simple?

You're right, you are going to have to do a call to the DB to pull the price out and put it in the wholesale price. Dual pricing won't calculate this for you since you are not logged in as a wholesale customer. you should modify the header.php file to call the whole sale price and then call it where you wish in you product info template file.

PHP becomes clear when you STARE at it... :)

So you can avoid our (small) embarrassment. When installing Dual Pricing, line #86 of tpl_product_info_display.php should be changed from:

echo '<span id="whole">Whole Sale Price: ';

to

echo '<span id="whole">Wholesale Price: ';

ie: Wholesale is one word. A customer pointed this out to us and said it made us look a little dumb.

I am running 1.3.8 for projectholds.com, and recently installed the dual pricing mod. Since then, I'm unable to update product descriptions in the admin area. I can type into the product description box, but when I preview to accept the changes what I typed in is not there. All the product descriptions appear to have been removed during the module install. There are no error messages, either. It just doesn't take. I've tried re-installing the mod, in case it was a bad upload, but to no avail.

The rest of the site seems to be working fine - I just can't put any product descriptions in (new or existing products). Any ideas?

Hi

The last sale I launched in our store, the retail and whole prices showed up as the same, even though they're not. The sale is now finished and the pricing is correct now. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

I've recently upgraded from 1.3.7 to 1.3.8a
and using 1.32 of dual pricing.

I updated the files located:
admin/includes/ modules/ product/ collect info.php & preview info.php
from the 1.5 version to make the wholesale price option show properly in the product description section (where you'd enter the wholesale price).

Please help!!
