Force login before adding products to the cart

[putttee]

I have an issue with people getting discounts on non-discounted products. This is how its setup as of now. I have different groups in the members categories and they get different levels of discounts to match their status. However some of my products I dont want anyone to have a discount on and that causes a few issues. I'm currently getting around it by doing different products for the same article to match the price which I really dont like doing but as of now its the only way I can see. The problem that I have is that people add their products to the cart before they login and therefor gets their discount anyway.

 

As I see it if I could force a login before people can add products to the cart that would solve everything and resolve that issue. Anyone knows if thats possible and where I can do this?

 

Thanks in advance for any help

While I do not agree in principle that a visitor has to login to be able to add items to cart, here is a module that will do what you want

 

It requires that a specific controller is not already overridden (don't worry if this does not make sense), and will give an error during installation if it finds that to be the case.

 

It is compatible with PS versions 1.4 and 1.5, may also be compatible with version 1.3 but I don't have a 1.3 installation handy to test. If you are running a version earlier than 1.4 let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks. I will try and see how it works out

I don't really get the problem.

If they are not logged in they should only get discounts associated with the "default" group, right? So just don't associate any discounts with that group.

Or what am I missing?

The problem is that when you are not logged in you are classified as default and all products priced accordingly and that's all correct. When you log in you get the appropriate discount and that is all correct as well. This is applied to all products regardless what they are in the store.

 

Here is the problem. I do have some products that I do a campaign on that I want to be the same for everyone and thats when the problem occurs for me. There are no way to exclude a single product from a certain groups discount and therefore I need to compensate the price to match their discount and that forces me to create a separate product for each discounted group and that is doable even though I dont like it. The loophole in presta that causes the issue is that if you are not logged in to the system and add the product to your cart you have the default category's price and once you do log in your discount does apply to it instantly. That is the whole problem

Hi,

 

This is what I have been looking for!

 

I installed it on 1.6.0.9 and it almost works perfectly except that if the user is not logged in and they click "add to cart", no message is displayed to tell them that they need to login...

 

Any chance of providing this function?

 

Thanks

I am also looking for this. I want the customers to login when they add something to the cart so I can contact them later if they did not finish the purchase.
