Hello,

Prestashop 1.7.6.4

I've spend hours on that problem, there is no solution on google/forums/github, so i'm desperate and post here....

 

CONTEXT : 

Apart from 'static' discounts, shops create dozens of new/dynamic cart rules per day, due to usual marketing modules

- affiliate discounts

- sponsor discounts

- social link discounts

- newsletter discounts

- abandoned cart reminders discounts.......

- etc etc etc.....

 

 

PROBLEM : with Prestashop, new discounts are always created compatible with all others, even if the 'compatibility' checkbox is unchecked. This is a subtle bug that leads to big complications....

 

 

When the 'compatibility with other cart rules' box is unchecked, the corresponding cart rule SHOULDN'T be compatible with others (actually this is not the case !) so that users may CHOOSE in between two opposite automated behaviors.

 

 

ILLUSTRATION :

Case 1 : the 'compatibility with other cart rules' is uncheked.... the cart rule is compatible with others (bug)

 

Case 2 : we check the 'compatibility with other cart rules' checkbox >>> the discounts will be set as.... compatible too, by default....... 😕

 

 

CORRECTION :

Just logics......

- if 'compatibility with other cart rules' is unchecked : the corresponding cart rule must be incompatible by default with all others cart rules (newly created or existing) >>> this is the bug that needs to be fixed

- if 'compatibility with other cart rules' is checked : the corresponding cart rules must be compatible by default with all existing or created new rules, and we can finely tune its eventual uncompatibility >>> this is the actual behavior 

 

I think someone who know a bit the Prestashop controllers or PHP or whatever in coding could fix that problem in few minutes... It took me hours to write this damn message and look on internet....

 

Thanks !!

Hi,

Prestashop 1.7.6.4

The subject has already been discussed, a lot, but as for now, NO SOLUTION. 

 

CONTEXT : 

Some discounts are static, some others come from marketing modules which create discounts "à la volée"

- affiliate discounts

- sponsor discounts

- social link discounts

- newsletter discounts

- abandoned cart reminders discounts.......

- etc etc etc.....

In only one day, we can have 100 new cart rules created depending upon the traffic and integrated marketing modules. 

 

PROBLEM : with Prestashop, new discounts are always created compatible with all others, whatever is the 'compatibility' checkbox check OR unchecked. Not only illogical, this behaviour is also poorly functional, as it may be ok for few static discounts, but surely not for usual shops, that do use modules to automatically create dozens of discounts everyday to boost  sales.

 

 

When the 'compatibility with other cart rules' box is unchecked, the corresponding cart rule SHOULDN'T be compatible with others (actually this is not the case !).

 

WHY DO WE WANT THAT ?

1/ to have a logical and functional behavior

2/ not to get bankrupt with hundreds of cart rules adding themselves in top of each other automatically

3/ not to have to switch manually hundreds of discounts everyday from 'compatible' to 'uncomnpatible' fields

 

 

ILLUSTRATION :

Case 1 : the 'compatibility with other cart rules' is uncheked.... >>> the discounts are compatible in between themselves (completely stupid)

 

Case 2 : we check the 'compatibility with other cart rules' >>> the discounts will be set as.... compatible too, by default....... 😕

 

 

SOLUTION TO IMPLEMENT :

- if 'compatibility with other cart rules' is unchecked : the corresponding cart rule is automatically incompatible with all others cart rules (newly created or existing)

- if 'compatibility with other cart rules' is checked : the cart rules becomes automatically compatible by default with all existing or created new rules (this is the actual behavior, all cart rules are positioned in the right field 'combinable rules') 

 

Any trick is worth 1.000.000$ cause it seems this obvious subject is another 'beat around the bush' one in the Prestashop bug/malfunctioning forest.....

 

Thanks !!
