A free gift question?

Hi, is it possible to have a free gift added to the order when a person spends over a certain amount of money?

Rob

or adding another line on the order totals, i can set this to £0.00 just so they can see they are getting a free gift with each order

Hello,

You can create a coupon with a reduction of 0.0001 (if you enter 0 the coupon will not be displayed).

But this is not a really good solution because on the invoice the customer read :

coupon : CODE_COUPON -0.00

And I'd like to see :

Coupon : CODE_COUPON (COUPON DESC) -0.00

So that you can explain in coupon description that you are offering a gift for free.

Can someone suggest the code to display "coupon description" on the invoice.

Moreover, the best solution will be to :

• add a line in the cart with the article
• redeem the total with the price of the item
• So decrease stock of this item

A future mod for anybody with good development skills :smile:

This is how I did it, it may not be 100% compatible and I would welcome anyone's criticism, but it works for me.

edit includes/modules/order_total/ot_coupon.php

After this code:

if ($od_amount['type'] == 'S') $order->info['shipping_cost'] = 0;
      $sql = "select coupon_code from " . TABLE_COUPONS . " where coupon_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['cc_id'] . "'";
      $zq_coupon_code = $db->Execute($sql);
      $this->coupon_code = $zq_coupon_code->fields['coupon_code'];

Enter:

// bof edit to show coupon description
     $coupon_desc_query = "select coupon_description from " . TABLE_COUPONS_DESCRIPTION . " where coupon_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['cc_id'] . "'";
     $coupon_code_exec = $db->Execute($coupon_desc_query);
     $this->coupon_desc = $coupon_code_exec->fields['coupon_description'];
     // eof edit to show coupon description

Then edit:

$this->output[] = array('title' => $this->title . ': ' . '<a href="javascript:couponpopupWindow(\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_COUPON_HELP, 'cID=' . $_SESSION['cc_id']) . '\')">' . $this->coupon_code . '</a> :',
                              'text' => '-' . $currencies->format($od_amount['total']),
                              'value' => $od_amount['total']);

To:

      $this->output[] = array('title' => $this->title . ': ' . '<a href="javascript:couponpopupWindow(\'' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_COUPON_HELP, 'cID=' . $_SESSION['cc_id']) . '\')">' . $this->coupon_code . '</a> (' . $this->coupon_desc . ') :',
                              'text' => '-' . $currencies->format($od_amount['total']),
                              'value' => $od_amount['total']);
