Coupon code in Act_Primary

[jmedinger]

Hi there

I've been upgrading a site for a client and looking at the coupon code that is in all the Act_Primary theme files.

Is it necessary to retain this code in the Act_Primary file if the only place that you want the client to be able to enter a coupon is during the checkout (where it appears as part of the customer data entry fields)

Cheers

I'm also interested in knowing this if anyone has the answer.

Thanks,

Hi,

From personal experiece, I've deleted out all the coupon codes that the upgrader put in my Act_Primary's as they got bunged in random places and broke the design. Actinic hasn't complained that they are not there and I can use coupons happily in the checkout still. AFAIK, they are only used when coupon collection is set on any page and Actinic doesn't miss them if they aren't there.

Thanks Matt. I took the code out and have seen no ill effects thus far.

Hi there

The coupon code in Act_Primary.html will only appear if you where going to tick the Allow Coupon Code Entry in: "Store Pages" in "View | Discount and Surcharges Settings | Miscellaneous"

You can take this coding out of Act_Primary.html and not set that option, because you can set the option in the view cart or checkout stages

Hope this helps

Kind Regards
