DUAL Pricing v2

Thank you, jackie...

twitchtoo:

the wholesale invoice in admin loads the original retail price just below the product descriptionSeems that this is still the case. Can anyone help me here? Either with a fix, or some clue about where this is being generated? I'd really like to fix this glitch, because a wrong price on an invoice does not look good.

hairydog, I can't seem to replicate this issue on my end. The invoice shows the correct product price and order total. Can you try re-uploading all the files included with the Dual Pricing installation? If it still does not work as expected, are you using the latest version?

I uploaded all the files for the latest version (for 1.3.9h) as part of checking. The item prices are fine: it is the attribute prices that are displaying as the wrong amounts. It correctly charges the trade prices for the attributes, and the invoice line total is correct, but the attributes are listed with the retail price on the invoice.

In this example, the product is priced by attributes and the trade prices are £22.95, £100.00 and £34.95 - a total of £157.90, which is that the line total correctly shows.

The problem is that it is showing the retail prices for the attributes as part of the line description.

Ok, I've made a note of the issue and will work on a fix for the new v2.2 release. I can't guarantee a release date, as we try to support the community in our free time.

On a side note, I do suggest that you upgrade to the latest version of ZenCart (1.5) as it has been out for more than a year. Using an old version leaves you vulnerable to hackers/ID thefts. In fact, the PCI Compliance board requires that you upgrade within 3 months of any new cart release.

In fact, the PCI Compliance board requires that you upgrade within 3 months of any new cart release.That is all very well, but some of the addons in use are not 1.5 compatible. And all the 1.5 users hate it because of the enforced password changes. We have a few 1.3.9h installations and all of them pass PCI checks.

I would recommend upgrading your add-ons using the new 1.5 files and/or hiring a developer to do this for you. The enforced password changes are a PCI requirement - precisely the sort of thing business owners are supposed to do, but are never bothered with because of the inconvenience of remembering a new password.

Owning an online store is much easier than a physical storefront, but it comes with great responsibility to keep your customer's information safe. Running older cart software is not safe for your customers or for your business, regardless of the effort required to upgrade it.

Thank you for the unwanted lecture, and FYI monthly password changes reduce security because they need to be written down. I don't own an online store and have no interest in doing so, but I do understand the economics of them, as you clearly do not. Without a business case, an upgrade to 1.5 is a hard sell. And there is no business case right now.

What I do want is a fix to a bug that has been around for years.

Business case = preventing ID theft and lawsuits

The bugfix will be applied to the latest Dual Pricing version, which is 1.5 compatible.

Clearly this thread is degenerating, so I will politely back away and will not respond further. I was just trying to be helpful and provide some advice on the matter. I am sorry you did not find it useful.

Update on current problems & issues please?
I have read through alot of posts trying to figure out exactly where this module is with attribute functionality.

I see in the changelog that the following was supposedly fixed?
"v2.1- Fix attribute pricing during checkout"
"v2.0- fix attribute pricing when adding to cart"

However I have installed a base 1.5.1 of Zen cart and have issues with attributes pricing defaulting to level one price when added to cart. This only happens when a customer is set to level 2,3 or 4 pricing. The drop down menu on he product page however displays proper wholesale pricing for attribute. Is this fixed and what other issues can we expect at this point.

Thanks for anyone that has input on this!

I think you can assume that it is not fixed (and may never be). Three or four years after being reported this bug remains outstanding, so I assume it is too fundamental to sort out. The basic trouble for me is that the code is a complex mesh of interconnected parts (made worse because I have some other added bits in the pricing)

Attributes are a bit of a mess anyway, because we really need proper stock/availability checking of various combinations and that is hard to describe, let alone code! Conor was working on this towards the end of his life, but I hadn't managed to persuade him to do wholesale pricing in there as well.

I'm not sure if this is the place to post this question or not, but I'm doing it anyways cuz I've been searching for hours and I'm going crazy trying different things!...and of course, I'm failing! :'(

I'm trying to add a wholesale price level for my website via Easy Populate. I am using dual pricing 2.1 and i've trie easy populate 4 and 5...nothing seems to work...
any help here? What field do I set in Easy Populate?
P.s. sorry if I didn't post this in the right forum...

hi all, I've come across a little problem entering the wholesale prices on the product page. This worked originally but now If i try to update these prices it doesn't save the information. I can enter the information from the database itself and it shows up on the edit product page, just not the other way around. Can anyone suggest which file I need to look at that controls this, I must have changed it at some point but I'm not sure which one it is. I thought that it might be the collect info php but this matches the original.

Thanks

Kezan98,

I don't know if you fixed this or not. But just in case. It's the update_product.php file you're looking for. If memory serves me right, it's located at.

/YOUR_ADMIN/includes/modules/update_product.php
'
This is where your stored $_POST value gets transferred to the DB and is likely where your site is broken.

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone could help me with what I am trying to setup. I have this mod installed on a test site on 1.5.1. I was wondering if there is anyway I can setup a product where only wholesale customers have access to quantity discounts. I have been reading through the forums and tried setting it up myself but it only looks like I can setup quantity discounts for both retail/wholesale customers, not just wholesale customers. Can anyone else confirm my findings on this, I would hate to have to try to code this myself if the functionality is already there and since zencart coding structure (to me) seems very complicated.

P.S. I am not using any price by attributes...

Thanks for any help.

Hi, how can I get the dropdown prices to display the wholesale price when a wholsale customer is logged in? At the moment id displays the retail price but charges the correct wholsale price when added to cart. Running on zen 1.3.8

Wanted to also say I am running version 1.8 of the dual pricing module with dynamic price updater. It displays the retail price at first but then updates to the wholesale price when an attribute is selected. Have lost the ability to display both retail and wholesale since putting in the dynamic price updater. That's ok if I can get it to display the main price as a wholesale price when the product is loaded and for it to display the wholesale attribute prices when the wholesale customer is logged in.

Wow this thread is a bit big, Ive tried looking and cant see the answer, maybe it is here.

This module works fine for me, apart from one thing. It doesn't show the reduced in the cart until the end at check out. So my wholesale people can't see the actual price they pay, they just see the original non wholesale price

Hello,
Need a little help. I currently have Dual pricing and hidden wholesale in use on my site. I am now wanting a second level of wholesale and was wondering how I do it.
When I do wholesale for the 1 level that I currently have, I just put the price into the wholesale pricing box on the product page. As there are no other boxes than that. How do I do it for a second level of wholesale that only a level 2 will see? I only want level 1 to see normal pricing and level 1 which I currently have and I only want level 2 to see normal and level 2 pricing (not level 1).

What can I do?

Thank you
Amy

Hi,
Continuing from the last post...

Or is there a way that I can have a separate area just for the level 2 wholesale people that they can log into to just see the level 2?

Thank you
Amy
