Specials Price Not Showing In Shopping Cart / Checkout

Hello,

I'm just starting my zen cart, and currently only have 1 item in a category, with that item having a special price setup. I'm going to add more to that category latter, but I'm having a problem with the "Special Price". When you add this to your shopping cart, however, the regular price and not the special price displays. I found I could check the radio button for "No" on "Product Priced by Attributes:" and then only the special price shows. I have no idea what the attributes are all about, haven't found the documentation on it yet, but my question is this:

When I go to add more products in the category, and some may be setup with different special prices, or non at all, will they all display what price is setup for the (being special price if it is discounted), or do I have to check the "No" on "Product Priced by Attributes:" for all or only the specials? How does that work?

Thank you,
Mark

HMMMM....What should I put here? =}

Re: Specials Price Not Showing In Shopping Cart / Checkout

Products are, by default, set to:
Priced by Attribute: NO

unless you have a product that cannot compute its lowest possible price without adding up the lowest price of each of the Option Name groups Option Values, you do not have a Product that is Priced by Attribute ...

Attributes are a method to add on features such as:
Option Name: Size
Option Value:
Small
Medium
Large

Attributes also allow you to add a price to the product or subtract a price from the product, such as if the Large has an extra $5.00 charge ...

But, adding $5.00 to a Product for being purchased in the Size Large still doesn't mean Priced by Attributes ... this is a Product that "happens" to have Attributes and one or more of them "happen" to add on to the price ...

Re: Specials Price Not Showing In Shopping Cart / Checkout

Thanks very much for the reply, however, I figured it out before I found out anyone replied to this. It didn't notify me, nor does it even display in the forum and being replied to....interesting, but thanks non-the-less.
