How to keep the Qty Discount box from appearing?

I've created a quantity discount for a product.

Now I'd like to know how I can keep the Qty Discount Box from appearing on the Product Page.

Also, any way to apply a quantity discount to all products? Or does this have to be done one product at a time?

Thank u

Re: How to keep the Qty Discount box from appearing?

Why would you offer discounts and not let anyone know about it?

The table: products_discount_quantity

Holds the discounts ...

Add the discounts to 2 Products so you can see how this works

Now, technically, you can clone this ...

Also, note the settings in the products table for the 2 fields:
products_discount_type
products_discount_type_from

Those also must be set on Products with quantity discounts ...

Re: How to keep the Qty Discount box from appearing?

Thank u for your reply.

To reply to your question: "Why would you offer discounts and not let anyone know about it?" I plan to let customers know about the discount, but the table displayed and location of it doesn't look very good on that page.

You replied:

The table: products_discount_quantity

Holds the discounts ...

Where is this table, please. Is it a file? Or is it in admin? I looked around. Sorry, I'm not sure what you're trying to convey here. Are you answering my first question or my second question?

"Add the discounts to 2 Products so you can see how this works"
See how what works?

"Now, technically, you can clone this ..."
Please clarify.

"Also, note the settings in the products table for the 2 fields:
products_discount_type
products_discount_type_from

Those also must be set on Products with quantity discounts ..."

I'm sorry, I don't know what any of this means.

I look forward to any assistance.

This is in reference to a DataBase table.
"Also, note the settings in the products table for the 2 fields:
products_discount_type
products_discount_type_from

This also refers to the DataBase and editing this directly

Re: How to keep the Qty Discount box from appearing?

Thank you for your assistance.

I've visited the database with the Table: products_discount_quantity

I don't see the discount info pertaining to the two products that I have applied the quantity price discounts to.

I can view the matrix on the Products view page, which shows the quantity discounts. But I don't see anything referring to these discounts in the database table.

As I'm not versed in databases, I have phpmyadmin, I'm hoping someone can guide me as to what to look for in these tables to show the discount I've applied.

Ultimately I'm hoping someone can show me how to apply the same quantity discount to all my products, instead of one at a time.

thank u

Re: How to keep the Qty Discount box from appearing?

If you want to apply Qty Discounts to ALL products, look at the Quantity Discounts contribution:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&cPath=40_47&products_id=235

You can quantity discount by category id, product id or total product count.

Good luck,
Scott

Thank you for your Quantity Discounts Contribution suggestion.

I downloaded it. Opened up the Install instructions. It states: "Copy the contents of the invoice folder to the root directory of your shop."

I've looked around, where is the "Invoice Folder"?

thanks

Re: How to keep the Qty Discount box from appearing?

<blush> it's in the invoice contribution, which I used as the source for this readme.
Please read instead, "copy the contents of the unzipped folder ..."
