[SOLVED] Discount Not Applied to Variants

Hello,

Maybe this is by design or maybe I missed something, but if I apply a percentage discount to a category of products, that discount does not show for any variants of those products. I expected the same percentage would be applied to the products in that category as well as all variants. I tried with sub-categories included and excluded with the same result.

Is there a way to include a discount on variants?

I just noticed that adding a discounted product to the cart screws up the formatting of the cart at checkout.

In the example below, there should have been a 30% discount applied to the price, but the undiscounted price is what shows in the cart.

A normal cart should look like this:

It looks like the formatting problem above was fixed with the latest release. (I was testing the discounts on 1.4.4), but the problem with discount not being applied to variants is still there. The cart item says 30% discount, but the amount is not applied. The first item in the cart below is the base product with discount. The second item is the same item with a characteristic selected.

Nicolas,

Do you have some idea when this issue might be fixed? Also, does the coupon/variant problem only exist when the coupon is applied to Categories, or would it also be a problem with other coupon restrictions?

Sorry to be a pain, but this is an important one for me.

Thanks! I'll be recording our first race of the 2011 season this weekend so customer orders should start coming in through the new Hikashop component soon. (hopefully )

If you apply the discount directly to the variant, I suppose it should work.
We'll look at that over the weekend.

I couldn't find a way to apply a coupon directly to a variant, but I'll wait to see what you come up with for a fix. Not urgent for me right now (maybe others), but it is something I would like to see in a near-future release.

It looks like there is still a problem with discounts and variants. I'm using the latest Business version (downloaded this morning) and while discounts do indeed get reflected in variant prices on the product page, they do not get passed correctly to the Cart Module and Checkout page reflects a different price from the cart module, but it is still incorrect. I'll post some screen shots to demonstrate.

This first shot is the product display showing a $5.00 flat rate discount correctly applied to the default product variant combination (Standard Definition DVD original price $30.00 with $5.00 discount = $25.00). When added to cart, all looks OK.

This shot shows the variant High Definition BluRay selected and the product page reflects the correct discounted price (Original price for that variant $40.00 and with $5.00 discount = $35.00)

But when that item is added to the cart, the price reflected in the Cart Module is incorrect.

And to make it more confusing, when you go to Checkout, the price for that second product is now changed to $30.00 instead of the $25.00 that was in the Cart module, but still not what it should be, which is $35.00.

Nicolas,

Something else that I forgot to ask is what is the number to the left of Proceed to Checkout in the Cart Module?

Hope the new office move has gone well for you,

Nicolas,

The two lines you gave are identical and there is only one instance of that line in the referenced file. Does the that change need to be made in another file?

Thanks,
Ed

The line:
if(!empty($row->prices)){
is in that file three times. Should all three be changed?
