Display Message in Hikashop

Hi,

i am new to hikashop. I want to display a message to customer when over $75 items added to the cart. How can i do this?

how can i read the current cart value with php?

Regards,

Hi,

In the file "cart" of the view "checkout" you can get the total value in that variable:
$this->full_total->prices[0]->price_value_with_tax

You can edit it via the menu Display->Views.

Thanks nicolas.

here what i want is to display the message in a separet module.

i have installed a new module to sytem via .zip archive. in that module i have the php file. can i access the hikashop cart module inside that php file and display the message by looking at the cart total value.

if in customer's chopping cart the total is >= $75 then i have display a message that the customer has free shipping. if the total is < $75 again i have to display another message. this message is going to be displayed somewhere in the page the user can easily see.

Then, from an external module, you could do like that:

if(!include_once(rtrim(JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR,DS).DS.'components'.DS.'com_hikashop'.DS.'helpers'.DS.'helper.php')) return true;
$cartClass = hikashop_get('class.cart');
$cart = $cartClass->loadFullCart();
echo $cart->full_total->prices[0]->price_value_with_tax;

Thanks nicolas,, it works perfectly.

but here is another challenge. the value $75 is given as the "Minimum price" in a manual shipping method module. How i need to read that "Minimum price" value from my external module for displaying message?

You should load that shipping method data. Like that:
$shippingClass = hikashop_get('class.shipping');
$shipping = $shippingClass->get($shipping_id);
$shipping->shipping_params = unserialise($shipping->shipping_params);
echo $shipping->shipping_params->shipping_min_price;


And $shipping_id need to be the id of your shipping method.

Thank you nicolas. it works. you gave me a great support.
