Title: Discount in percentage shown
Post by: Richard on October 06, 2014, 10:19:17 AM
Hi Guys ,

Can someone advise how can i input discount based on percentage using abantecart and at the display site it will show the discounted percentage.

Example; when we set 70% discount in the admin control panel, the customers page will show a 70% discount on selected items.

Appreciate help and advise from anyone. Thanks


Regards ,
Richard

If you are asking if there is one place to set a discount rate, like your 70%) and then select some products to apply it to.  The answer currently is no.

You can select a product and apply a sales price,  you need to calculate the sales price to currency - it does not use a percentage currently.
Then both the original pricing with a strike thru and the sales price is presented.

The admins are always adding features to the versions, so I can't address what they may have planned for the 1.1.2 that should be out soon.
Hope this helps you somewhat.

Here's the docs page with more info.

Lee, thanks for your reply.

Yes, really looking forward that the next admin updates can include a percentage based discount and shown the discounted in % format in the general/guest user interface.

The objective is to highlight to guest at a glance on how many percent(%) discounted on a product.
