No discount shows in Extended Info

[andrewace]

I have a problem with displaying discounted prices in the Extended info window.

Logged in users get 25% on some products. In the main product list, these discounts are shown ok. But when the extended info window is clicked the only price you see is the retail price.

In the case of products that can only be bought by logged in members, the extended info window still shows the message 'This product is only available to registered customers' even after you have logged in.

Can anyone help?

I take it you have added NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTPRICE into the extended information page template?

This is a known issue as the pop-up pages are not parsed by the Perl in the same way as the store pages are. It is not currently possible to include registered customer pricing information in the pop-up pages.

This is down to be addressed in the next major release.

Actually it can be done, but it needs a little help. You have to put the code:-

!!<<Actinic:SECTION BLOB="A0002.cat"/>>!!

Into the Extended Info Text for each of your prodcuts that has a popup.

The "A0002.cat" bit has to be changed to suit the internal number for each Section (Product Page). It is the same for all products on a page. You can find this value by looking in the source code of a product page when logged out for "BLOB".

If you change your section structure these blob numbers may change so you may have to re-do all this. Thus don't put any effort in unless you have a static layout.

PS just had a final thought that may clean things up a little. You can put the "<Actinic:SECTION BLOB="A0002.cat"/>" into the alternative Extended Info Template. Call that one e.g. ExtendedInfoA0002.html. Now do the same for each other section (replacing A0002 with A0003, etc), thus creating lots of alternative templates. Use the appropriate template for all the products in each section. If your Section layout changes in the future you will only have to change the code inside these templates and not inside every product.
