No.

If you are using CCGV and Better Together, you should install the fix described here: http://www.thatsoftwareguy.com/osc_better_together.html#CCGV

If you are using CCGV and Quantity Discounts, you should install the change described here: http://www.thatsoftwareguy.com/osc_quantit...ounts.html#CCGV Scott

Use Quantity Discounts, not Better Together, for this kind of thing.

Yes, there are many ways to "count" (by item, category or total number of items in the cart). Download it and read the documentation and you'll see.

You're doing exactly what I would do. Go through catalog/better_together_marketing.php doing the same thing (echo at key places) to see where it's failing.

If you download a vanilla copy of osCommerce rc2.2 you'll see your copy of includes/classes/order_total.php is quite different from the one in the download, which only has 80 lines. I have no idea what changes you've made or why, but they are not compatible with this mod. You can use a default copy of this file, but that will probably break something else in your cart.

Change echo '<tr><td>' . $bt_strings[$i] . '</td></tr>'; to echo '<tr style="margin-left:25px; border: 1px solid #000000; width: 600px; padding: 5px; background: #ffffcc;"><td>' . $bt_strings[$i] . '</td></tr>';

Erwin, I just did this and it worked fine on a stock cart + CCGV + Better Together. I used the latest CCGV from 14 Apr 09. You have made another change which is breaking things, or perhaps it's the version of CCGV you're using.

You'd have to write software; nothing like that is built in.

Please post a link to the CCGV contribution you're using.

What you can do is look at the files you're planning to change, and compare them to a pristine download of that version of osCommerce. At least that way you'll know whether your change is going on top of another change.

Better Together 1.0.1 has been released; this version is compatible with the Order Editor contribution.

Quantity Discounts 1.0.1 has been released. It provides compatibility with the Order Editor contribution.

You have a bad copy of includes/classes/order_total.php. This file only has 80 lines.

Please don't double post. I will resolve your problem and post to the Quantity Discounts thread in the near future.

This capability is built in to osCommerce 3.0. In 2.2, you would have to write software to get this effect, assuming the discount module permitted this sort of action (mine do, others may not).

Added documentation on this : http://www.thatsoftwareguy.com/osc_better_....html#marketing

You'd have to write software; nothing is built in at the moment. But this is on my big fun list of things to do.

If you are using 2.2-MS2 instead of 2.2rc2a, you need to make one small change to Quantity Discounts to make it work. The change is documented here: http://www.thatsoftwareguy.com/osc_quantit...counts.html#MS2 This change is *only* required for MS2. Scott

This seems to be an issue in 2.2-MS2 (but not in 2.2rc2a). I will post a fix shortly.

There's no way to do this without writing additional software. Scott

You've done something wrong - perhaps the file has been damaged. The links to my site are for help and donations if this software helps you make money. Try downloading it again and reinstalling.

I just adjusted the marketing text on my test site to give it a yellow background - this makes it a bit more visible when you're trying to see the effect.

On the front page of my shop, click "Better Together" then scroll down to "See it live." What I've done is documented there.
