Cannot get the deduction to show on order total page. shows a discount of $0

$this->add_cat_to_prod(1,1,"$", 70);
$this->add_cat_to_prod(2,1,"$", 70);

cat # 1 & 2 are filled with martial arts programs
prod #1 is their uniform

on products page, it shows that a discount is available.
Just does not pass the amount to the order total.

Then you've really done something wrong. If you install this on a vanilla 30a5 cart, you'll see it works fine.

[wolfspyryt]

I was hoping for a little more "support" as opposed to the obvious. No kidding ... something is wrong !!!

Re-Installed OSC3 Alpha 5 and your addon. All works well untill I try to add variants. Once I do, the cat_to_cat stops working.

I hope that this time you might offer a little help ... no offense intended, just looking for support and not mere observations.

Thanks in advance for your help.

A fix for this issue has just been posted to the download area. The documentation has also been updated.

Wondering if anyone has this installed. I'm having the same problem as wolfspyryt. None of the discounts calculate when using categories. The marketing line shows on the appropriate products but does not calculate the discount upon checkout. All of the individual product discounts work. This seems like a good add-on but doesn't seem to work on categories. Any ideas?

[swguy]

Have you verified in your database that the category ids are what you think they are?

[Rich47]

Yes, I opened MYSQL database and viewed the categories_description table and the category numbers are correct. After doing some more testing, it seems to have something to do with products that have varients. When I selected items from categories that did not have varients, it calculated the discounts properly. When I selected an item from the same category but with a varient, it did not calculate the discount.

My observations:
product 385 category 11 has varients
product 23 category 11 no varients
product 210 category 16 no varients
product 117 category 8 has varients

selecting product 23 and product 117
$this->add_cat_to_prod(11, 117, "%", 100); This works

selecting product 385 and product 117
$this->add_cat_to_prod(11, 117, "%", 100); This does not work

selecting product 117 and product 23
$this->add_prod_to_cat(117, 11, "%", 100); This works

selecting product 117 and product 385
$this->add_prod_to_cat(117, 385, "%", 100); This does not work

selecting product 23 and product 210
$this->add_cat_to_cat(11, 16, "%", 100); This works

selecting product 23 and product 117
$this->add_cat_to_cat(11, 8, "%", 100); This does not work

I hope this makes sense. It seems that when you pick an item that has varients from a category it does not calculate. It shows the marketing text but no discount on chechout.

I may want to get the checkout candy and offers on listing pages but need to get this bug fixed first. Since I have categories with items with and without varients, I can't have it showing marketing text for everything but only getting the discount on the ones without varients.

Sorry for the long message

Are you using osCommerce 3.0?

[swguy]

In includes/modules/order_total/better_together.php look for the function cat_compatible - around line 280.

At the top of the function under the global $oscDatabase line, please add

$thisprod = new osC_Product($products_id);
$products_id = $thisprod->getMasterID();

then press the "update shopping cart" button on your checkout page (don't just refresh the page with the browser's update -this doesn't do anything.)

[Rich47]

Yes I'm using 3.0. Thank You, I think that did it. I did some quick testing and it appears to be working perfectly. Thank you for the quick response. I need to go to my "other" job now but will be contacting you later by email about the other add-on's and another project I'm thinking about.
