I figure there must be something in the code that will output how many items I have sitting in the shopping cart but hell if I can figure it out. Thanks, Brann

bump :( please someone post on this... seems there are more than a few people with this problem.. thanks, brann

Hi, I have been searching for months and have yet to find anything that fits the bill. What I need is something that will charge pre-set fee based on how many items someone wants buy and apply it to the shipping price. For example say I set this fee to 10 cents and someone buys 5 items. When that person checks out there will be an extra 50 cents added to their shipping price. Has anyone seen anything that will do this? Thanks in advance, Brann

I am going to try and put a new life into this misunderstood post... I need to figure out the same thing jayrocks did but maybe I can explain it a little better than he did... here goes: 1. The store uses a shipping by weight system sinces it sells all kinds of things that require very different shipping rates so the shipping per item module is not an option. 2. Lets says you wanted to charge a $1 fee for every item a person buys at your store that is added onto the shipping cost(handling fee). Now the way the handling fee works is it adds the fee to the order once for the whole order no matter if you have 1 item or 100 items in your cart. So for example if you orders 1 item it would charge on the handling fee of $1 to the total cost. This is perfect and 100% what we are looking for... BUT! what about when someone orders 5 items? the handling fee will still be $1 rather than $5($1 per item) which we are looking for. So more or less the simple fix is this- Mod the handling fee feature to charge its fee per item rather than per order. So, if you have a handling fee of $1 and order 10 items your handling fee is $10 and if you order only 1 item the handling fee is $1. Now for the problem... Does anyone have a clue how to change the code to do this? I sure don't... If anyone still does not understand the question please let me know and I will do my best to explain it better as I feel this would be a very useful mod. Thanks, Brann

Maddie, I am not sure on your problem but I am in code hacking mode at the moment and I will see if i can find anything and post my results :) As for my gift voucher code it is kind of odd i had a shopping list of things that were wrong with it. * in the payment module section the credit class didnt work and gave me errors (im pretty sure thats what made all the other problems...) * the GV release screen did not work and when someone got a voucher it just gave them the credit and I was not able to approve them. If I could only figure out why the credit class did not work I would be golden I am sure. But until then I have to use the coupons as a sort of GV system.

Well I am not really at the payment phase of my store yet as I am not going live for a another week. But the store credit stuff very interesting too me... Though I never got it to work correctly :( The next thing I am trying to figure is the best way to make a coupon work like the gift voucher since the coupons seem to work flawlessly. Problem I am having is I can make a code that gives you $20 off an order that is one use and has no restrictions. If you buy 20$ or less with shipping and eneter the code the total amount due is $0.00 which is how it should be... but even though you owe no money you still have to select a payment option like check/money order. Any ideas on a good fix for that? Best i was thinking is to code something to check if the total is 0.00 and if so not force you to select anything for a paypment option but that might screw up the order status stuff... I was wonder if anyone else had this problem and if so how did they go about fixing it.

Maddie, Your my hero! heh :) I went in and changed it to have the highest sort order and boom worked like a champ :) I was hacking at all kinds of code trying to figure it out and who would of thought it was a simple setting in the admin console... go figure I have one more question for you. How is your credit class working in the payment module section? I can not get that going to save my life... Thanks again, Brann

MzBeanz, Are talking about the order total not showing up in /catalog/checkout_confirmation.php where it shows up like this : Sub-Total: $119.94 Flat Rate (Best Way): $5.00 Total: $124.94 Discount Coupons:TEST: -$29.99 Id perfer it to show the total with the discount already included... and it doesnt give you a total with the discount adjusted? if so I am trying to figure out the same thing and have been hacking with the code all day... Do you have any ideas on what it could be? maybe if we put our heads together we can figure something out. -Brann btw in your payment module section of the admin page does it say Credit Class Error?

Hi, I have been reading all 121 of this massive post and working with my code for the past week with no luck... I just did a fresh ccgv_v5_13 and redid all 99 steps again for the 5th time or so... here is a list of problems I am having: *In the admin section* +In my Payment Modules list the credit class is listed as "Credit Class Error" and the discription is "Credit Class Error, needed with Gift Voucher" +I can use the Mail Gift Voucher feature and it mails the vouchers correctly and the user can redeem them. But it does not write any data to the tables for the Gift Voucher Queue feature to work and when you look at that screen it is always blank. It seems that it releases the vouchers by default even though I have it set to ask me to release them first. *In the catalog section* +In checkout_confirmation.php output it shows the GV value but it does not show the total: $0.00 at the end (which would be the total minus the GV value). Sub-Total: $48.75 United States Postal Service (1 x 0.2lbs) (First-Class Mail (2 - 5 Days)): $3.03 Total: $51.78 Gift Vouchers: $51.78 Other than that everything seems to more or less work... Now I am sure I must of missed something or screwed up a line in some file, so please if you have any ideas where I could look to try and fix these or if you have had these problems I would love to hear what you did to fix it. The closest I ever saw to the problem i was having was from Diskology (and I never found a reply to it... hope I have more luck) and btw Diskology if you did fix the problem please drop me a line. I can be reached here on the board or email me [email protected] Thanks in advance, Brann
