Quantity Discount - how to display

[fantasyprints]

Hi All

I am now starting "to clean up" my new site and wonder best way to go about with products with quantity discounts

http://www.fantasyprints.co.uk/acata...r_Banners.html


The above is a raw page. Am I correct in saying best is to create a table and list the prices shown here in a better format and then "hide" the quantity breaks?

Any advice would be grateful

No need to hide one and create another, why not just style the existing accordingly? If you click on one of the price breaks while on the design tab, you will see the layout and how the layout is created, put your styling into there instead, much less work then.

Hi There

Many thanks for reply. I tried what you suggested which makes sense BUT how do you do this. I tried the Edit List Option which at the Conference they said to use but I can't get anything to change. I moved up to the product price list but still doesn't change.

Can you offer any additional info - I must be missing the obvious

There isn't a list layout for the area in question, when you click on what I mentioned that is it, your styling needs to go right in there. Once you are in the layout showing how the price breaks are created, that's it, have a play in there. Add some random text to areas in there and see how it shows against the price breaks and more importantly how certain conditions invoke certain parts of the layout, dependent on how you have the price breaks setup. This is the kind of code you are looking for:

<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22PriceIsEnabled%22%20%2f%3e">
	<actinic:variable name="ProductPriceDescription" />
	<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsFirstQuantityBreak%22%20%2f%3e">
		<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20Name%3d%22QuantityDescMax%22%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%201">(<actinic:variable Name="QuantityDescMax"/> item)</actinic:block>
		<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20Name%3d%22QuantityDescMax%22%2f%3e%20%3e%201">(<actinic:variable Name="QuantityDescMax"/> or fewer items)</actinic:block>
	</actinic:block>
	<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsMiddleQuantityBreak%22%20%2f%3e">(<actinic:variable Name="QuantityDescMin"/> to <actinic:variable Name="QuantityDescMax"/> items)</actinic:block>
	<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsLastQuantityBreak%22%20%2f%3e">(<Actinic:Variable Name="QuantityDescMin"/> or more items)</actinic:block>
	<actinic:variable name="PreFormattedPrice" value="Product Price Including Tax" />
	<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsTaxMessageShown%22%20%2f%3e"><span class="actxxsmall"> (Incl.&nbsp;<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsTax1Used%22%20%2f%3e"><actinic:variable name="TaxName1"/> at <actinic:variable name="TaxRate1"/>%</actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsTax1AndTax2Used%22%20%2f%3e"> and </actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsTax2Used%22%20%2f%3e"><actinic:variable name="TaxName2"/> at <actinic:variable Name="TaxRate2"/>%</actinic:block>)</span></actinic:block>
