fixingsfactory Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Hi All, Just wondering if there is a way to have an option in admin to set any registered customer on a specific % discount site wide? I know its a strange ask Thanks in advance :) Ade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodleman Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 The easiest way is this: https://www.noodleman.co.uk/discount-price-tiers-module.html setup a single tier with a min price of 0.01 and use a customer group to manage the % that customer can get. IE setup a customer group for 10% discount, then add that customer to the group and setup a 10% discount tier for that group. However, you can also do it using customer groups, but it would mean you need to manually maintain the prices for each product and customer group.

fixingsfactory Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Thank You, I will have a look at both options. I am presuming the plugin requires user groups to be used along side? Ade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodleman Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 correct, it is group based, but it allows you to not have to worry about micro management of the product prices. you can change the % for the group on the fly as required,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fixingsfactory Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 I have uploaded the files to my cc install and cannot find it anywhere in the admin side, do i need to activate it somehow? Its not showing as a plugin/extension either although the noodleman skin is visible but blanks the site out if i activate it. Does this not have a token install?

Noodleman Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Did you manually upload the files using FTP? It should have gone into /modules/plugins directory, with the final path being /modules/plugins/price_tiers once in that directory, you should see it from the admin area under the "manage extensions" list.

fixingsfactory Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 The entire contents of the zipped file into the plugins directory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodleman Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 that is correct, including the directory named "price_tiers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixingsfactory Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 Ok i have installed the extension, it required that i installed something called ion cube, which i have done too. Now i cannot access my admin panel, getting an error: Site error: the ionCube PHP Loader needs to be installed. This is a widely used PHP extension for running ionCube protected PHP code, website security and malware blocking. Please visit get-loader.ioncube.com for install assistance.

Noodleman Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 delete the module for the moment. Check the version of IonCube you have installed from the admin area (php info), you can search the page for IonCube. Also, please confirm your PHP version? There are different versions available based on PHP version, see here: https://www.noodleman.co.uk/downloads.html#price_tiers If you have an old version of IonCube installed, then I may need to send you a special version which will work with older versions.

fixingsfactory Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 Php version is 7.1, i have just had my hosting provider tech support install the latest version of ion cube but it still shows the error. I have now deleted the plugin and everything has come back. http://www.fixingsfactory.co.uk/info.php Full stats there ^^ if it helps any? Ade.

fixingsfactory Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 I am assured by technical support that it is installed? I have no idea how to physically check though, the folder is on the server if that helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why hosting companies dont install this by default at a server level is beyond me - we always install it on every single server we commission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who provides your hosting? some companies provide instructions on how to enable it with their control panel if they don't enable it by default. Most who offer this feature have it documented somewhere in a support knowledge base. I'll see if I can track it down for you if required. When IonCube is enabled, there is a section in the php info page which says "powered by IonCube" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
