Title: Custom Field "Add on Price " giving front end Discount ( NEW with 2.0.8c )
Post by: Sunglasses-Joe on July 16, 2012, 11:59:03 AM
Hi,

I have updaterd to VM 2.0.8c and since doing so my ADD ON prices for custom fields have problems !

When I add new custom fields and put an ADD ON price 20 against the attribute in custom field the front end showes this as a discount of Minus £20

i.e. on link  http://www.sunglassescenter.co.uk/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=1058&virtuemart_category_id=6
choose colour  601-82  , Add to cart and the £20 add on is shown by total as a minus £20 ( -£20 ) , follow the checkout proceedure and the price remains at tha origional £79.99
So it is supposed to be £20 Extra at £99.99 , it showes -£20 discount so customer expects it to be £59.99 but the order goes through at £79.99 !!

Something else I have noticed with Old products and custom field prices

Item  http://www.sunglassescenter.co.uk/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=651&virtuemart_category_id=6

has been an exisiting product for a while,  Custom fields were added after migration of the site with add on values for polarised colours , these prices were added in GBP  and all was working fine before the latest update.
now at the front end the add on price is shown in USD $ , It is not added to the item amount and if I look in the admin at this product there is no entry in the price coloum at all ! ( see attatchement )

Can any one help ?

Thanks
Joe

 :-[ ! Sorry !!!!

I have figured out my own problems,
I wondered why no-one else was having this problem and no replies !!!
It was because it was all MY FAULT !!!
I have an Indian company who has been uploading my product attributes after Migration  ! They had put the add on price in the attribute description instaed of the Price column !!!! ( $ Issues solved )

When they started to upload a new set of products for me they had the overwrite final price ticked, so The add on price went on, But then showed it as a discount on checkout to overwrite the price back to the original price !!! ( discount issue solved ! )

Sorry for wasting anyones time,  Maybe this may help someone else, If there is any one else as silly as me out there !!!

Thanks

Joe
