discount per category and attribute listed price does not work

[FonZ]

Hi all,

 

I have re-coded the attribute part of PS so it doesn't show a dropdown-menu but it displays all attributes with price in an order form like this: https://www.kempkes-gemert.nl/druk-pvc/47-druk-pvc-buis-75-bar.html

 

This all works fine and dandy for regular customers. Now I've created a new group of customers and I'm giving them a discount per category and now my price-listing is way off (ie. doesn't show correct prices except for the first item). Pricing in the cart is correct, so it's not a PS issue (at first  ).

 

At current it works like this:

value=($product->getPrice(false, $smarty.const.NULL)+$group_attribute.price

So with getPrice you get the default price (discount applied!) and then you add the value of the attribute (discount not applied!). So in essence I need to grab the discount percentage and apply it to the $group_attribute.price and then it should work properly. 

 

A. can I 'call' (get) this 'discount per category' percentage (like getPrice or a variable) from the TPL (is it in the array where the price is?)?

B. should I spent my days wondering around in the core code to apply it there? And if so, can anyone shorten this time by giving some pointers?

 

Any input is greatly appreciated!

Just some answers for those working the same issues:

 

a. on the product page you can call a variable called

$group_reduction

Just apply the reduction to the attribute.price and it works like a charm!

 

b. since I also needed it on my product-list.tpl the answer was YES, I had to adjust the ProductController.php to get the group_reduction, throw it into the ajax array and process it from there.

 

Thnx PS for building something I can get to work the way I wanted to!
