Default Can On Sale Mod do this?

Can this be done with the on sale mod? I have not been able to figure it out. I think it will need to customized to make this work and Altercart is not accepting any customization at this point.
  • Show in the wholesale pricing quantity columns, the regular price crossed out and the sale price listed below it.
  • Pick any product and have it be at the same sale price regardless of quantity (this has been an isue because all the price have wholesale pricing grid). Tried the individual discount but it will not work because a lot of products that are sold on the site are price in tiers. And each tier offers a different markup percentage.
  • On the one sale page http://www.thepromoshop.com/onsale.php instead of having the link go to another page have the links go straight to the product pages of the items. And also have the prices showing next to the products on the on sale page listing.

Great questions/requests. The module is definitely limited in this respect. If anyone has any work-arounds, they'd be appreciated.

I am always available to customize the alteredCart modules. This only applies to customizations to X-Cart not related to the modules.

For wholesale pricing there is an additional step needed to the func.js file:

Near Line 412 find this code:
Code:
if (document.getElementById('product_price')) document.getElementById('product_price').innerHTML = currency_symbol+price_format(wl_price < 0 ? 0 : wl_price);

Right BEFORE it enter:

Code:
// On Sale :: alteredcart.com // wl_price = onsale_calculate_product_discount(wl_price); // END On Sale :: alteredcart.com //

This doesn't display a Was XXX Now $$. This type of display has been the most requested item, and is going to be added as a feature shortly.

The On Sale module uses the price that is set in the cart to calculate the discount, it doesn't know if it is a wholesale, or regular price. To have this sort of sale you would need to disable wholesale prices for the product.

Not every sale is setup the same, and not every store runs the same, so it is impossible to have the standard setup be perfect for everyone. Another popular request is to have a category of products that are onsale, or display a list of products that are included in the sales. If you wanted a link directly from the onsale.php page to the individual products you would have to have every sale setup as a individual product sale. If this is your setup, this can be customized.

Although not "stock" for On Sale, there is no reason you can't pull MSRP from the database and display it, and use a strikethrough style.

Bill, any idea when you will be able to customize it so that all sale products are displayed on one page? So many other sites have this basic ability. Click a "Sale" link and see all products that are on sale.
