I wanted the discounts to show as amount in $'s saved and not percent so I modified the "skin1/customer/main/product.tpl":

#ORIGINAL#

{math equation="100-(price/lprice)*100" price=$product.price lprice=$product.list_price format="%d" assign=discount}
{ $discount }%

#MODIFIED#

{math equation="lprice-price" price=$product.price lprice=$product.list_price format="%d" assign=discount}
${ $discount }

Now it shows "Save $15" as opposed to "Save 60%". Thats it!! Hope this helps someone.

Very Cool!

Just to add, although it may be obvious!
For UK users, change the code from:

{math equation="lprice-price" price=$product.price lprice=$product.list_price format="%d" assign=discount} 
${ $discount }

To this:

{math equation="lprice-price" price=$product.price lprice=$product.list_price format="%d" assign=discount} 
бё{ $discount }

Big respect for the mod, all the best!

Great mod!

One question though, what would you do to change the code so that it also includes cents. Right now it only shows the discount in whole dollars which isn't very attracting to the customer in a situation like this:

Retail: 13.99
Our Price: 10.65

You save $4!

Thanks

change

format="%d"

to

format="%.2f"

Thanks for the mod. This changed it under the detailed area...is there a way to change it under the featured description as well and also the product description? thanks again

For dynamic currency use:

{math equation="lprice-price" price=$product.price lprice=$product.list_price format="%d" assign=discount} 
{include file="currency.tpl" value=$discount}

Thanks

Do you know how to do this in 4.0?

Thanks

[TonyD]

the same code works with 4.02.....

[AnimeJeff]

this works great... but how do you make this new amount show on the featured products part of the home page? can't seem to figure it out.

thanks

You'll need to modify customer/main/products.tpl for it to appear in the featured products section. Or customer/main/products_t.tpl if you use multi-column format.
