My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

I just installed this MOD for a 2nd time. The first time is didn't go so well. I have it working, but it's showing the MAP price in front of the text "Priced so Low...", and that can't be right because then you don't have to add the item to the cart to see the MAP price. I downloaded a fresh copy of the MOD from the download site, and re-installed, but no luck.
Has anyone come across this before. It's working fine if I put the MAP price in "Price" box, and leave "MPA Price" blank, and enable MAP Pricing.

Any demo site where I can see it run?

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

Hi,

I've installed the MAP pricing module and it's working great, but some of the MAP prices don't show all of the significant figures in the amount. For example, if MAP pricing shows $2.50 for one product and $2.65 for another product, the $2.65 product will show normally, but the $2.50 product will display as $2.5. (No trailing 0.)

It's not a deal-breaker, but it just looks unprofessional. I anticipate having to change the sig figs in the MAP pricing module in some way, but I'm just wondering if anyone else has run into the problem before.

This add-on is great.

However, I think the original price should be added to the display, with a line a through it.

Thanks for this contribution, just what I was looking for.

I agree with you is there any updates with the map price so the original price can be displayed.

Thanks

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

MAP Pri cing is working great for me, except for one thing. Prices that end in "0" don't have the last "0" displayed. For example, a $2.50 price gets displayed as "$2.5" - the last zero gets left off.

Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

I really need this mod to work, as of now, I have it installed, IC the MAP box on the product/admin side, but when I add the item that i've assigned a map price to, to my cart...nothing happens. Is this a simple mistake? Need help! Thanks

Ok, just found the check box for the enable pricing, duh! lol

Now thats it enabled, it shows the Map price before the "For an even lower price add to cart."

Even when added to cart, still doesn't effect the price. Not working.

Is this something I have to manually edit somewhere?

I have 1.3.8 I believe. Fresh install, only mod was a new template skin.

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

It's been awhile since I used this mod. Have you entered both the MAP and your price in the corrrect field?

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

Sorry for revive this thread, I just recently installed it on my v1.3.8 and I can;t find the option to enable MAP for a product. I uploaded the SQL Patch and the three files, but nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

Found what I did wrong. Lol. Admin files got uploaded incorrectly.

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

This is an ABSOLUTE FABULOUS add on!

How ever, is it possible to have the following features as in this example here?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16828106206

  1. A strike-thru the Original Price
  2. A "See Price In Cart" button that will...
  3. Trigger a pop-up window that will give customers two options
    • to buy the product
    • a button saying "Just looking - Remove from Cart"
      and of course showing the Original price, a "You Save" price and the finale price.
    • a courteous explanation like in the example, why they had to "Add to Cart" to see the price.

Will it be too hard to add these functionalities to the already existent MAP add on core?

Thank you!

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

(Before anyone gets upset - I know I posted this before, but under commercial help by mistake, where it hasn't got much attention - please pardon my re-post - I didn't know how to move the original)

Virtually all of my products carry Minimum Advertised Pricing restrictions. Though the MAP mod doesn't work perfectly I can get by with it....BUT

I also deal in a special niche market for which I offer special pricing. Using either Group Pricing (per item) or Dual Pricing - Wholesale could work, except that they overwrite several of the same files as MAP, and I've tried and tried to WinMerge these things and can never come out with both mods working.

Can anyone out there get me these two mods working together in ZC version 1.3.8a? I've already wasted dozens of hours trying to learn PHP and merge these files, and in the process lost most of a unique marketing window of opportunity (and probably thousands of dollars) because I can't get my store to do what I need it to do for pricing. I can't afford much - since I'm not making any money in my store, but I'd be willing to offer a token of my appreciation if someone can help.

I've compared the files in each mod, and here are the ones that conflict:
Group Price/MAP
\admin\includes\modules\update_product.php
\admin\includes\modules\product\collect_info.php
\includes\functions\functions_prices.php

Dual Pricing/MAP
\admin\includes\modules\update_product.php
\admin\includes\modules\product\collect_info.php
\admin\includes\modules\product\preview_info.php
\includes\functions\functions_prices.php

PS. If I get a choice, I'd prefer the Group Pricing per item, as it overwrites far fewer core files, but it also seems to need a bug fix or two even apart from the merging. I'm afraid Dual Pricing would make future upgrades a nightmare - But I'll take either one at this point to get the store working the way I need it to.

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

We've got MAP pricing running nicely on ZC 1.3.8.

Send an email to: jay @ geomangear . com (remove spaces) for more information.

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

Can MAP price be the default so that I do not have to edit 3000 products?

If you use easy populate v 1.2.5.4 then read the first post in this thread to update all of your current products, you have to add 2 new fields - map_price and map_enabled:

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=116061

To change the product creation MAP field to always ON when you are adding a new product through the admin you can make a small change in the database, changing the MAP setting from 0 (off) to 1 (on). It is in the table products and the column to edit is map_enabled.

Re: My Add-On for MAP (minimum advertised price).

I do not. I am using the Map price contribution though. There must be a way to use MAP price as the default.
