if/then for wholesale customers...

upupcreative · #1 04-18-2011, 05:33 PM

I'd like to make it so that the products list (products.tpl I think, right?) shows the price for regular customers but DOES NOT show the price on that page for signed-in wholesale customers.

It seems like a simple enough if/then but I am having trouble with it. Any help?

(my reasoning: for wholesale customers, there's a minimum quantity to get the wholesale price, so the products list shows the retail price instead of the price per piece if buying the minimum. so a product that retails at $4 and sells wholesale for $2 with a minimum order of 10 items looks on the products list like it costs $4, which is confusing for my wholesale customers. so i'd rather avoid that. alternately, I could add something that says "retail price per piece" if i can't make it go away completely.)

Thank you,
Julie

Add

Code:

$smarty->assign('user_account', @$user_account);

right before this

Code:

func_display('customer/home.tpl', $smarty);

in the "<xcart_dir>/home.php" script.

After surround the price code in products.tpl template with e.g.:

Code:

{if $user_account.membershipid eq 0}
...
{/if}

this will show the price only for customers without any membership level.

Hi Alex,

I've tried adding this piece of code to home.php, but the smarty variable is only available on the homepage and not any of the other pages.

Is there a way to get around this?

I have a catalog page only available to users with a membership level which is linked from one of the main menus, so it needs to be available at all times once they are logged in.

Many Thanks

*UPDATE* Think I got around this by adding the code to auth.php. Not sure if that's the best place, but it seems to work ok.

You can also add to include/common.php (categories.php before 4.4.x), I thing is better then messing up with auth.php

Is there a way to get the {$user_account.membershipid} to show a specific welcome text on the welcome.tpl template?

You should use conditions in the welcome.tpl template.

Code:

{if $user_account.membershipid eq ID1}
 {$lng.txt_message1}
{elseif $user_account.membershipid eq ID2}
 {$lng.txt_message2}
{/if}

Thank you for the reply. I tried the code similar to your with ids of 9 but it seems it still would not work.

HTML Code:

{if $user_account.membershipid eq 9}
{$lng.txt_welcometest} Test here
{else}
{$lng.txt_welcome} Regular
{/if}

I noticed in the menu.tpl it iterated over them do I have to do this for the ids here?

HTML Code:

{* $Id: menu_manufacturers.tpl,v 1.5 2005/11/17 06:55:47 max Exp $ *}
{if $manufacturers_menu ne ''}
{capture name=menu}
{section name=mid loop=$manufacturers_menu}
<a href="manufacturers.php?manufacturerid={$manufacturers_menu[mid].manufacturerid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$manufacturers_menu[mid].manufacturer}</a><br />
{/section}
{if $show_other_manufacturers}
<br />
<a href="manufacturers.php" class="VertMenuItems">{$lng.lbl_other_manufacturers}</a><br />
{/if}
{/capture}
{include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_categorie.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_manufacturers menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu}
<br />
{/if}

Not sure what exactly you mean. Since I've used memberships in the sample and you refer the manufacturers in yours.

These are completely different entities in X-Cart.

Sorry for the confusion. The goal is to get the "membershipid" on the welcome.tpl also note that I am running X-cart version 4.1.9
