DUAL Pricing v2

[Adam371]

Hi,

I'm using Zen Cart 1.3.9d with COWOA 2.0c1 and Dual Pricing 1.7a. I'm currently fiddling with CraftZombie's files to merge the two. (thanks for that!)

Here are some issues that I'm having.

1. I have no radio button for people signing up to request to be wholesalers. Anybody know how to solve this? Or, can you direct me to the area of code to look at?

2. Is there a way to pre-approve a customer as a wholesaler based on a coupon code that they use? I am sending postcards to businesses that qualify and it would be great if they could check out immediately at wholesale pricing. I'd hate for them to bounce away from my website because they don't want to wait for me to respond to their request...

Thanks so much for the help!

We are having the same problem with the radio button, I'm wondering if it is because of a custom theme

I have been working on this as well. Before I installed Dual Pricing, I installed, COWOA to allow quick checkout. Craftzombie did a nice merge of the files for Dual Pricing with COWOA and she also solved the issue you are having with #1, the sub-total issue. Once I changed over to her files my $0.00 sub-total problem went away.

-I will note however that I saw this issue: The original retail price disappeared from view. Only the distributor pricing would then show up...

Also, it appears that Craftzombie's changes were made before the radio button addition... so. I think when I wrote over the Dual Pricing 1.7a files with the Craftzombie files this "un-did" the new feature.

I'm currently trying to align all of the Craftzombie files with the corresponding 1.7a files so that we can see which code should be inserted. Anybody want to help?

So, my question for you: Do you have Craftzombie's files installed or COWOA installed?

Also, after I did all of this I changed over from PayPal IPN to PayPal Express. Now, all of the COWOA options have disappeared and when I tried to hide Configuration->Layout Settings->Categories Box it doesn't work. I have no idea if this has anything to do with the aforementioned things if someone can help I would be very appreciative!

I found the solution for bug #1. shopping cart shows a sub-total of $0.00

on includes>classes>shopping_cart.php

locate

      // products price
      $product_query = "select products_id, products_price,  products_tax_class_id, products_weight, 

and replace for

      // products price
      $product_query = "select products_id, products_price, products_price_w, products_tax_class_id, products_weight, 

products_price_w is missing from 1.7


The solution for the free shipping problem in dual price is easily solved with Free Shipping Options assuming you request a minimum order amount for wholesale customers. Go to Modules>Shipping modules>Free shipping options and enter values for Total >= and Total <=

These below are the settings for one of my stores, so I offer free shipping for orders above $35 but I charge shipping for orders above $200. Wholesale and regular clients won't receive free shipping above $200. I use the USPS shipping module with these settings and it works like a charm

Total >=
Free Shipping when Total >=
35

Total <=
Free Shipping when Total <=
200

I would totally help but there is no way I can until after xmas. I am swamped.

Yes, it only shows the wholesale price once the wholesale customer is logged in. That's the way the original Dual Pricing worked and I never edited any code to make it show retail pricing (although didn't someone post how to do that???). Also, my files do not have the radio button thing. I provided my files before that feature came along. I may add it, although I personally don't have a use for it (I like that my customers have to email for a wholesale account because that means they actually read my rules!).

I know 3-4 weeks is a bit long to wait, but I really barely have time to eat or sleep during December! I barely had time to write this post!

One of the big issues with dual pricing is the lack of configuration when it comes to hide the coupon and gift cert. boxes during checkout. The last thing as we want as wholesalers is give more discounts in the form of coupons or for wholesale accounts to pay with gift certificates. We've been trying to find a way around this without modifying core files and I think we just came up with a good way, at least it works for me, and I wanted to share it.

On includes>templates>YOUR TEMPLATE>templates>tpl_checkout_payment_default.php locate the following piece of code:

<?php
  $selection =  $order_total_modules->credit_selection();
  if (sizeof($selection)>0) {
    for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($selection); $i<$n; $i++) {
      if ($_GET['credit_class_error_code'] == $selection[$i]['id']) {
?>
<div class="messageStackError"><?php echo zen_output_string_protected($_GET['credit_class_error']); ?></div>

<?php
      }
      for ($j=0, $n2=sizeof($selection[$i]['fields']); $j<$n2; $j++) {
?>

<div id="shippingcoupongift"><fieldset>
<legend><?php echo $selection[$i]['module']; ?></legend>
<?php echo $selection[$i]['redeem_instructions']; ?>
<div class="gvBal larger"><?php echo $selection[$i]['checkbox']; ?></div>
<label class="inputLabel"<?php echo ($selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['tag']) ? ' for="'.$selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['tag'].'"': ''; ?>><?php echo $selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['title']; ?></label>
<?php echo $selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['field']; ?>
</fieldset>
</div>

<?php
      }
    }
?>

<?php
    }
?>

and replace by this one

<?php
  $selection =  $order_total_modules->credit_selection();
  if (sizeof($selection)>0) {
    for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($selection); $i<$n; $i++) {
      if ($_GET['credit_class_error_code'] == $selection[$i]['id']) {
?>
<div class="messageStackError"><?php echo zen_output_string_protected($_GET['credit_class_error']); ?></div>

<?php
      }
      for ($j=0, $n2=sizeof($selection[$i]['fields']); $j<$n2; $j++) {
?>
<!-- bof don't show if customer wholesale -->
<?php if ($_SESSION['customer_whole'] && $_SESSION['customer_whole'] != '0' ) { ?>
<?php } else { ?>
<!-- closing tag for this above bellow  -->
<div id="shippingcoupongift"><fieldset>
<legend><?php echo $selection[$i]['module']; ?></legend>
<?php echo $selection[$i]['redeem_instructions']; ?>
<div class="gvBal larger"><?php echo $selection[$i]['checkbox']; ?></div>
<label class="inputLabel"<?php echo ($selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['tag']) ? ' for="'.$selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['tag'].'"': ''; ?>><?php echo $selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['title']; ?></label>
<?php echo $selection[$i]['fields'][$j]['field']; ?>
</fieldset>
</div>
<?php } ?>
<!-- bof don't show if customer wholesale -->
<?php
      }
    }
?>

<?php
    }
?>

This code will prevent the block of boxes (coupon code, gift cert., plastic gift card and insurance optional) to show for wholesale accounts only but shows and works fine for retail.

The problem, for us at least, is that it would also remove the optional insurance module, but we solved it by adding insurance mandatory for orders over $200 which is the same amount we use as minimum order for wholesale accounts, so we made it work.

We've tested it in one of my live stores www.byvalenti.com and it works great.

I hope this hack will be useful for somebody else at least until there is a better way

cheers!

Does anyone know what version of easy populate I should use. I have dual pricing and stock by attributes. I have a number of other modules but I think these are the main ones that involve the products.

Oh and I want to ensure it is PHP5.3 ready too and for zencart 1.3.9h!

Thanks

[richphitzwell]

I have h installed now and am using the latest version b. I have noticed another possible bug in that taxes are still being added to the wholesale customer.

[richphitzwell]

Also, Trying to hunt down the actual cause but I came across another user who has both H and using Dual Pricing, when adding an attribute to a product it fails to add and kicks us to the admin home screen.

Anybody know the cause of this or how to fix this?
