Hi there,
what is the best add-on to use for Discount coupons?
I have recently installed version 2.3.1 and I am unable to get any of the listed add-ons working, no matter how careful Install each one. I always end up with some kind of error in the admin area or the checkout pages.
Can someone please offer a suggestion?
Thanks you.

Rich,

It will take some time for the contributions to be updated to work with v2.3.1 and then, not all will be available.

Suggest you read the Latest Updates.

Ok, let me rephrase. There is currently no FREE contribution available for v2.3.1 posted on the osCommerce forum.

Thank you...
I see the articles at http://www.clubosc.com/oscommerce-2-3-1-and-coupon-discounts.html/comment-page-1#comment-4708 but I can't find any explanation or download of what they are featuring?
Please help enlighten me, thanks.

It is a commercial add-on, in other words, a product that I sell.

Lots of people believe that "GPL" and "Free" go hand in hand, I'm not one of them.

There is no other working coupon script for 2.3.1 at this time.

Burt,

I fully understand but wanted to clarify for the OP.



Chris

I know. I suppose I should update the free version of the same script, sometime.

Can not see a download link to your voucher code for OSC 2.3?

I found the downloads and the module looks great. HOWEVER, there is a file missing from the downloads: includes/functions/coupons.php. I checked all three downloads there, just in case. If you could re-upload with that file included I would REALLY appreciate it! I have it installed right now just waiting for that file.

Hi Jim,
The only coupon.php file exist in admin/includes/functions. In the catalog/includes/functions/ don't need these file. Read the install.html file.

I figured rather than start a new discount code topic I'd just ask in this one . . I have osc 2.2 MR2, which addon would be best? I just want to be able to give folks a coupon code they can enter at checkout, if I can set it to be used once per customer that'd be nice but if not it's no biggie.

Hi Rob,

This thread is support for this contribution:

There have been many updates posted on that contribution but the one I would suggest using is v3.34 by xinxi and then apply the patch for the orders.php right above it.

You should also consider the age of your store and when to update to a newer version (it is MS2 not MR2)



Chris

[NEWPRob]

Thanks Chris!

That did the trick! I tried the patch, but it didn't work, switched it back to the original 3.34 mod code and it seems to work fine for me.

Im having a problem with the install it seems, something isn't right, in the instructions it tells me the following:

OPEN catalog/checkout_payment.php

FIND on line 269:

      <h2><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_COMMENTS; ?></h2>

  <div class="contentText">
    <?php echo tep_draw_textarea_field('comments', 'soft', '60', '5', $comments); ?>
  </div>
<?php 

However, in my checkout_payment.php it goes like this, so I don't know where exactly to add it (basically there is no ending <?php like the instructions say):

<h2><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_COMMENTS; ?></h2>

  <div class="contentText">
    <?php echo tep_draw_textarea_field('comments', 'soft', '60', '5', $comments); ?>
  </div>

  <div class="contentText">
    <div style="float: left; width: 60%; padding-top: 5px; padding-left: 15%;">
      <div id="coProgressBar" style="height: 5px;"></div>

      <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
        <tr>
          <td align="center" width="33%" class="checkoutBarFrom"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL') . '" class="checkoutBarFrom">' . CHECKOUT_BAR_DELIVERY . '</a>'; ?></td>
          <td align="center" width="33%" class="chec

Any ideas/tips? Thank You!
