Minimum sub-total in order to checkout

We have products that are under $25.00 in price. However, the client does not want the customer to be able to check out if their sub-total is below $25.00.

Now, I did try the minimum purchase section but there is one slight hang-up:

If you force someone to buy $25.00 of widget A, but they also add a $100.00 widget B to their cart, then the need of the minimum for widget A should be "turned off" automatically. But I can't seem to find a way to do that. We don't want to have to force someone to buy 5,6,7 of an item just to meet a minimum.

We don't need a minimum per product ... we just need a minimum for a cart sub-total period in order to checkout. I know in X-cart, you was able to tell the cart that the sub-total needed to be a minimum of $x.00 in order to checkout. Can't that be done in Zencart????

Modules >> Order Total >> Low Order Fee will discourage

Thank you! I'll go take a look at both areas you mentions.
I looked everywhere under Configeration and didn't see anything - never thought about Orders under Modules ...

Thanks for helping out - I'll reply about my results! :clap:

I just added the Minimum Order contribution you linked to above and it seems to be doing the trick. I'll double check with the client, but am sure this is it!

I tried to find something in the add-ons section, but didn't know how they were labeled so I wasn't sure the keyword search term.

Thanks so much for your help - truly appreciated! :clap:
