Displaying RRP or List Price, above base price.

[ajspiano]

So this is a problem I've been mulling over for a while, I even considered buying a module to do this which required professional installation due to database modifications.

 

But! today I solved this using 'features' and a few code alterations on product.tpl (albeit messy ones i suspect)

 

So now I'm sharing because I'd have loved this have to been on the forum last week (my apologies if I simply failed to find it).

 

.....................

 

Alright, if you add a feature you can set up a customised value for every product, its like adding your own custom product field to the database. Cool. But by default it displays in a 'datasheet' tab alongside your other product tabs like 'more info' and accessories. This didn't help me..  I want it to display up near the prices, and not with bullets.

 

Down near the bottom of product.tpl you'll find this, ~line 515

 

<div id="more_info_block" class="clear">
   <ul id="more_info_tabs" class="idTabs idTabsShort clearfix">
   {if $product->description}<li><a id="more_info_tab_more_info" href="#idTab1">{l s='More info'}</a></li>{/if}
   {if $features}<li><a id="more_info_tab_data_sheet" href="#idTab2">{l s='Data sheet'}</a></li>{/if}

and this a bit further down..

 

{if isset($features) && $features}
 <ul id="idTab2" class="bullet">
   {foreach from=$features item=feature}
     {if isset($feature.value)}
       <li><span>{$feature.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</span> {$feature.value|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</li>
     {/if}
   {/foreach}
 </ul>
{/if}

If you put a comment tag  <!--  CODE CODE CODE -->around both of these you'll disable the datasheet completely, but without destroying its function should you need it later. 

 

If you need the datasheet, you can try this.. (untested)

{if isset($feature.value)}
  {if $feature.name==name_of_feature}
    <!-- do nothing -->
  {else}
    <li><span>{$feature.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</span> {$feature.value|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</li>
  {/if}
{/if}

Right, once you've done that you have a new variable that you can call on with a foreach and if statement anywhere..  

 

So back up the top of my file I now have this..

{if isset($features) && $features}
				<!-- product's additional features -->
				<ul style="list-style-type: none;">
					{foreach from=$features item=feature}
					
				
						{if isset($feature.value)}
							{if $feature.name==RRP}
								{if $feature.value > $productPrice}
									<li>{l s='RRP : '}<span style="text-decoration:line-through;">{convertPrice price=$feature.value}</span></li><br>
									<li>{l s='You Save : '}{convertPrice price=$feature.value-$productPrice}</li><br>
									<li>{l s='You Save : '}{round((($feature.value-$productPrice)/$feature.value)*100)}{l s='%'}</li><br>
								{/if}
							{else}						
								<li>{$feature.value|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}</li><br>
							{/if}
						{/if}
					{/foreach}
				</ul>
			{/if}

I haven't formatted it yet so that it displays visually quite the way I want it to, or decided if I like percentages or dollar figures, but here's a pic to show its basically functional..

Cool but I wish someone would create a module to do this so that I needn't hack core files.
