X-Cart forums

I feel like I've searched these forums high and low for a concrete answer on how to display the lowest wholesale price for any given product but don't still don't have it. I simply (or not simply) want to display "Prices start at..." <lowest wholesale price>. I've seen many posts that touch on this concept but none seem to answer it. Is this even possible? Please excuse me if it's out there but I just couldn't uncover it. Thanks!

I am looking for the same exact function and cannot find it.

With the current x-cart setup, when a customer navigates to the product listing page they only see the highest available price (i.e. "Our Price: $10.00) even when discounts are available. Because the high price is displayed, most customers never realize their are discounts available on the product detail page.

Does anyone know an if/then statement that can show the lowest price available on the product listing page instead of the highest price? If this is too complex, is there at least an if/then statement that can display "Wholesale Pricing Available" underneath "Our Price" for those products having wholesale prices?

Did you find a resolution for this? I'm trying to do the samething.

No, I still haven't found a resolution to this yet. I'm still hoping to find some help on this too.

Dan thanks for getting back to me and what I have found out from X cart support that this needs to be customized to make this work. They stated

Unfortunately, by default X-Cart doesn't support this functionality: it always show the price of the minimum ordered quantity.

Which we already know this, so I'm having them provide me a quote to modify the code.

Personally I think this should be an option in the admin because there are a lot of websites that show prices such as the lowest price first when they sell in qty discounts.

I worked out a quick way to do this - just make the "list price" of all your products with wholesale pricing the lowest price and then in products.tpl just paste this

{include file="currency.tpl" value=$products[product].list_price}

wherever you want it to display. There's probably a better way to do it but until then, doing it this way should achieve what you want. Cheers

i created the following lang label

variable- lbl_as_low_as
descrip- as low as
value- Pay as low as

then added the following to /customer/main/products_t.tpl. my mod is marked in brackets

alter_currency_value=$products[product].taxed_price}</FONT>{if $discount gt 0}, {$lng.lbl_save_price} {$discount}%{/if}
{if $products[product].taxes}<BR>{include file="customer/main/taxed_price.tpl" taxes=$products[product].taxes}{/if}

{* Begin MOD display lowest bulk price As low As $ *}
<br>
{$lng.lbl_as_low_as}
{include file="currency.tpl" value=$products[product].list_price}
{* end mod 2.5.08 *}


{else}
<FONT class="ProductPrice">{$lng.lbl_enter_your_price}</FONT>
{/if}


seems to work so far
