Reward Points Module for ZC v13x

[moonbeamsoycandles]

Hey! I am running this on my site and have only had one customization problem.

ot_reward_point_discount

I cant seem to edit the values of the rewards. I want to change from percentage % to dollar value $. And it also wont let me edit the value to redeem the rewards.

It is set at the default of 5000 5%, 10000 10%, and so on.

I dont want the rewards set so high, since most of my products are $2-25. I know I can adjust the points earned per dollar, but it just looks outrageous.

Is there a back end page that I can edit and FTP over to the server?

I dont have time to read through 117 pages, and i tried searching for previous posts with no luck, so sorry if this has been addressed before.

Not sure if my site url will be of any help, but visitors are always welcome!

Are you running the latest version? (see post http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...postcount=1152) for details.

Ok, just installed the new version. It pretty muched fixed my problem.

Thanks so much! and Thanks for this Mod! It is going to do wonders for everyone! I know you have spent a lot of time and effort on this. It is much apprecitated.

How ever lets say the order was the following:
Sub-Total: €185.50
Reward Points earned: 93 (half sub total)
Value of redeemed reward points: €130.00
Tax: (This is the issue) €35.25 it should be €10.55 as 185-130=55 and 19% vat is 10.55 not 35.25.
So now the customer pays an extra 24.70 for this order due to the VAT not being correct.

In your advanced option when i add things here it only affects the points not the VAT.

Chris- Think the issue is that the Redeemed Reward Points have also a VAT component too- The €130 is redeemed off of the total so whatever is left is the remainder including a 19% VAT. However this may not being recalculated in the Tax display. I'll look into this.

Unfortuantely I am a total novice with PHP so not really able to help here.
What I have been trying to find is where the order total is calculated for the final time and the TAX is calculated for the final time. If at this stage the final order amout must be chnaged to final order amount - points redeemed value the the tax should work as normal as the points redeemed value has already bee deducted before the tax is calculated and then it should work fine. I just have no idea where this is done.
Thanks chris

Well my main advice would be to change your hosts. Each page takes so long to load (around 30 seconds) that in its current state your site is unworkable. The latency could also be the reason for some of your other problems too.

[Andrew] I've freshly installed Zencart on a new host, and installed RPM 1.26a. Exactly same problem (layout box controls are not appearing), so I suspect I'm not completing the install correctly.

RPD turns out different results than the last webhost though:

Reward Point Module Diagnostic
Site Settings
Zencart version: Zen Cart v1.3.8a
PHP version: 5.2.2
MySQL version: 5.0.77-log
Zencart Settings
Zencart Custom Folder: includes/templates/classic/
Zencart Custom Template: classic
Zencart MySQL Prefix: zen_
Folder/File Check
MySQL Database Check

The only steps in your installation readme that I have not completed are #2 (I presume it does not apply on a fresh install), and (because I don't know how or if it applies):

3.2.1 If you use table prefixes in ZenCart you will need to manually rename 2 Reward Point Mod tables:

3.2.1.1 Rename 'yourprefix_reward_product_points' to 'yourprefix_reward_master'

3.2.1.2 Rename 'yourprefix_reward_point_history' to 'yourprefix_reward_status_track'

Could you walk me through these steps or whatever you think is appropriate -- I haven't been able to find anything in this forum?

Nevermind my last post! I think I figured it out! Had to dig back to the 8th page of this thread.

Just to make sure I haven't in some way made something worse, I just want to make sure I have, now, correctly followed Step #2 of the installation readme for RPM.

From the reward points diagnostic module I know that my custom folders are named "classic", so where ever I have found a folder actually named "custom" I have copied its contents into the folder named "classic" which exists at the same level in the tree.

Is that the correct method? I have only had to do this in 3 places, I am running a fresh Zen Cart install, with RPM being the only mod. After doing this, the sideboxes appeared in layout control as expected.

Yep- sounds like you have done everything correctly.

I'll have a look at it when I get back to the office on Friday- Could be we only need a forced recalculation of the Tax module.

Hi,

Thanks for the update! Would like to ask is the point redeem system is available yet on 1.27a? I mean like customers may choose how many points they would like to redeem for. Thank you!
