Multiple Items One Price

Hi Ray,
I'm adding multiple items to the cart. The items are different counsellors...

I want to find out, how would I be able to work the cart so that it shows one price in the cart, no matter if there are one or more counsellors that the shopper has chosen.

Thank you

You could probably have them all have a price of zero and add a charge rule that adds the flat rate if any items are in the cart.

Yeah that works. Thanks.

I used this statement: if number of items with ID of (lowest id value of products in database) <= (greatest id value of products in database).

NOTE: my product id's are numeric, I don't know how you would do this if they weren't numeric.

If subtotal of column Quantity is greater than zero would work.

Based on number of items in cart would work.

Lots of options would work in this case.

I have a problem now, with the price being zero. On my oder confirmation page it says Warning:Division by zero...

This is the code:

<?php //WA eCart Validation
if ((WA_eCart_FormatNumber($bookings->DisplayInfo("Price") - (($bookings->DisplayInfo("Price")/$bookings->TotalColumn("TotalPrice")) * $bookings->GetDiscounts()), false, 2) > 0)) {
?>

What do you suggest?

I'm thinking of setting the price and still using the charge rule, and then using a show if region on the price column in the cart??

I think you may run into problems....

For the line of code with the error you can just remove it and make sure to remove the closing "}" below that corresponds to this line of code. It isn't necessary in your case.

The problem I am anticipating is that paypal probably won't allow you to pass free items using the paypal standard system. Your technique would work in that everything would look correct on your site, but checking out will be a different story.

You may want to leave it as is and remove the itemized cart information. Pass all the cart information with FullDetails and use the charge as the amount field. Basically I'm recommending redoing the hidden form elements using the paypal standard documentation instead of using the standard format the wizard creates becuase of the unique differences in your cart.

Hi Ray

I have run into a new problem, maybe I never implemented your solution properly. Basically, if I have one of those products with the charge amount we discussed and another normal item in the cart at the same time things don't really work... I need the checkout to work if I have the charge rule for the multiple items with one price and if I have a normal item that may have discounts,etc. added to it... Is this possible? Or do I have to encourage my client to get payments pro?

No worries. I got it working. I removed the repeat cart region from the hidden form elements for paypal, and used the GrandTotal for the item price value. I also set quantity as "1"
