This actually makes the cheapest item free, I just need a discount coupon (I can't give stuff away for free, I'll go broke!!) Thanks though

This is not a bad idea, thanks for the suggestions!

@miamizx: How should this works? Who knows which one IS the first item in your cart? It`s not possible so far. Maybe you can filter some products out by manufactor or something... Well my dilema is that I have many many products on the site, its impossible to filter by product or manufacturer since I don't know what the user is going to buy. What I wanted to do is give a user a 50% discount off one item(doesn't have to be the first, just any ONE item) instead of the entire order. I guess I would have to just give out $ coupons instead of %

But that only let's me filter individual products. What I need is to discount only the first product in the cart. Is this doable?

Is there any way to only apply the discount to one item instead of the entire order?

did anyone end up resolving this?

I'm still having the same issues after this hack. I get an errors because the total is $0 (after the gift card is applied). I would just love to find a way to skip payment when the total is $0.

Update - for some reason my cart was still using checkout_shipping instead of ec_shipping and checkout_confirmation instead of express_checout in some instances. Now thats resolved on to the next one: I have installed Online Gift Cards contribution, everything works fine but I get an error if the total - gift cards = 0. The contribution has some code to work around this but it doesn't seem to work with EC IPN (it skips payment info if the total is 0). Does anyone know how to hide the paypal button if the amount is 0? This is the code from the gift card contrib. /* ogc mod to skip payment info if gift card reduces amount < $0 ---- 9/18/08 */ if (tep_session_is_registered('gift_card')) { $gift_card_query = tep_db_query("select * from `".TABLE_GIFT_CARDS."` where gift_cards_code='".$_SESSION['gift_card']."' and gift_cards_enabled='1'"); if (tep_db_num_rows($gift_card_query)>0) { $gift_card_row = tep_db_fetch_array($gift_card_query); $remaining_amount = $gift_card_row['gift_cards_amount_remaining']; // check to see if the user has a valid amount left on gift card $order_amount_left_over = $order->info['total'] - $remaining_amount; if ($order_amount_left_over <= 0) { tep_redirect(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_CONFIRMATION); } } } /* end of ocg mod -- 9/18/08 */

I'm getting this error: An error occured when we tried to process your payment. Please contact the store owner for assistance. Transaction refused because of an invalid argument. See additional error messages for details. (10415) A successful transaction has already been completed for this token. The process seems to do everything fine, it shoots me over to paypal and then back to my cart. Seems like the actual transaction is taking place when I go over to paypal, but then when I get sent back to my cart and click the "pay" button I get the error. The transaction is going trough on the paypal side and the user gets charged but I don't get anything on the osc side. Had anyone encountered this before?

I'm also running into a similar issue. I'm using paypal EC IPN and I'm getting an error when the order total is $0. Is there a way to bypass payment info when order are less than $0? Otherwise, great contribution!!

I'm also running into this issue. I have paypal EC IPN and get an error if the total is $0. It would be perfect it there was a way to bypass the payment altogether if the total was $0 (after the card was applied)

Great contribution,, thanks!

Would this contribution work with Separate Price Per Customer contrib?

I just recently noticed that after I confirm the payment at the paypal site the system redirects me back to the Payment Information page instead of the Confirmation page (where the blue purchase button is), is this an error on my cart or is this supposed to be this way?

does anyone know why I'm getting duplicate entries in Admin>Affiliate Program? Email Address Email Address Affiliate Pay Per Sale Payment % Rate Affiliate Pay Per Sale Payment % Rate Payment Threshold Payment Threshold etc... Thanks in advance.

I was able to figure out why I was getting a blank page, the godaddy proxy is now http://proxy.shr.secureserver.net:3128 Thanks for a great contribution!

is an SSL a must for this to work? everything passed in the diagnostics, except the SSL. Also getting a blank checkout page.

Is there any way of turning off TinyMCE only in the Comments box in shop>admin>orders.php?

The only issue I'm having is with the Comments box in shop/admin/orders.php. It will not render the html tags, therefore posting that un-rendered content there (also in the Order History box in shop/account_history_info.php, and in the email that is sent out to the costumer) Anyone know a fix to this?

This has been working great for me but I can't figure out why it still says "Auction Ended" under "Time Left" column. The auction is current and the start and end times are correct. Anyone have a clue? http://www.reefgardener.net/shop/current_auctions.php Thanks.

This worked for me too, thanks!

Oh dude don't get me wrong, I thank you and every one that has helped out in this thread, I need all the advice I can get. I've gotten some really good ideas and I'm going to re-structure my shipping rates and fees. Thanks again for all the help.

That would be the fastest and easiest way but I cannot simply charge all my orders a $10 fee, since my shipping is setup by number of items and not total amount or weight. I clearly state on my shipping terms page this $10 fee, and also on a note in the shopping cart (on the sipping options page). So the user knows that they will be charged this fee. It is very common in the business that I am in for store owners to do this and most of the customers are aware of this.

The handling fee is not the same for every order, I only charge a handling fee of $10 for every order over $100 to Florida and over $300 for the rest of the US. If the order doesnt reach this amount, then the standard shipping rate tables will kick in and there is no handling fee for that. I have setup a Free Shipping module for orders over $300 for the entire US, and I could setup a clone just for FL, but then the orders from FL will not get charged the $10 handling fee because the Handling Fee module in Order Total is setup for order over $300 (remember I can't clone this one and set it for FL because no zones). So for now I just have everyone in the US get free shipping (+$10) after $300. If I can't find a solution for this soon I'm thinking of setting up one of the coupon contributions and send out coupons for those FL residents who would of gotten free shipping.
