How do I display the lowest price for a product when using Quantity Discounts?

[Ajeh]

Have you an URL to where the Product with discounts is not showing the right price?

Sorry. I am not yet live, I am only on my laptop until I learn Zen Cart. I am finding it hard to express my attempts to modify pages.

I have on the Listing Page image in color Red what I am attempting to do and on the Product Information page.


*****
In the Listing Page I have a price showing for 'Call for Price' products. Also to add the red text before.


In the Product Information Page I have tried to add and IF condition to show 'FROM' text and the lowest quantityDiscounted price where a product has quantity discount. ELSE to not show the text 'FROM' and only show the base price. I fail.

LOL, appology, I do not know how to explain more.

Maybe too much and confusion. Might best be on the Product Information Page to have an IF condition to 'HIDE' base price if the Quantity Discount table exists, just showing the QtyTable, ELSE show base Price..?

You can try for the tpl_product_info_display.php to use:

//  echo $one_time . ((zen_has_product_attributes_values((int)$_GET['products_id']) and $flag_show_product_info_starting_at == 1) ? TEXT_BASE_PRICE : '') . zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']);
$discount_price = zen_get_products_discount_price_qty((int)$_GET['products_id'], 5000);
$discount_price = $currencies->display_price($discount_price, $products_tax_class_id);
  echo $one_time . ((zen_has_product_attributes_values((int)$_GET['products_id']) and $flag_show_product_info_starting_at == 1) ? TEXT_BASE_PRICE : '') . ($products_discount_type ? ' Discounts from: ' . $discount_price : '' . zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']));

$discount_price = zen_get_products_discount_price_qty((int)$_GET['products_id'], 5000);
$discount_price = $currencies->display_price($discount_price, $products_tax_class_id);
  echo $one_time . ((zen_has_product_attributes_values((int)$_GET['products_id']) and $flag_show_product_info_starting_at == 1) ? TEXT_BASE_PRICE : '') . ($products_discount_type ? ' Discounts from: ' . $discount_price : '' . zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']));

Thank you so very much! Exactly what I tried to do. Please forgive for one last question. Can you point me in the direction of breaking this down and learning how to script for Zen Cart? Is there a Zen Cart writing guide?

Scripting for Zen Cart is fundamentally no different than any other PHP coding. You first need to learn PHP well, depending on how much customizing you want to do. Then you can look at existing ZC files that handle similar kinds of things to what you want to do, for examples of ZC-specific functions, variables, etc. The wiki has numerous articles about the code structure and how to handle various parts of it.

Yes. I have a long way to learn. I am trying to script ELSEIF command per but loosing each time.

I have in order to hide a price when quantityDiscounts are used but show a price when not quantityDiscounts used is modified the

  echo $one_time . ((zen_has_product_attributes_values((int)$_GET['products_id']) and $flag_show_product_info_starting_at == 1) ? TEXT_BASE_PRICE : '') . ($products_discount_type ? ' Discounts from: ' . $discount_price : '' . zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']));

to

  echo $one_time . ((zen_has_product_attributes_values((int)$_GET['products_id']) and $flag_show_product_info_starting_at == 1) ? TEXT_BASE_PRICE : '') . ($products_discount_type ? ' Discounts from: '  : '' . zen_get_products_display_price((int)$_GET['products_id']));

It feels bad, but it works as intended. Yes?

Grazie

Hi, I have applied this mod and it fits the bill nicely, however I have also added this mod to the site
Include and Exclude Tax in Prices (Net/Gross). I have struggled to get both to work together. Can anyone in this thread help me?
