did you checked error log for some issues? Maybe there you can find out what exactly goes wrong with script

[darkleather]

If your talking about the Log section into the Advence Parameters.. well nothing there, no errors.

 

If your talking about the log related to database or other... your losing me completely. I can make things work properly, but i dont have any knowleadge about programming or writing script.

[vekia]

I mean logs located in your webservice hosting panel / ftp,

 

so?

[darkleather]

Well.. still waiting for a good way to fix it... any idee ?

darkleather, are you changing the actual price or are you creating a Specific price rule. If you are just changing the price that won't do it, you need to create price rule.

 

Click on Price then click on Add A Specific Price, and add a discount. Let me know if that does it for you.

[darkleather]

Thanks... FIXED ! Took 3 sec to solve the problem !!!

[trangpl]

[Bill Dalton]

Please list the steps you are doing to create a Specific Price and what is the result.

Don't know if this is still of interest for someone but:

prestashop consider a "Price drop" only products with specific price wich has a reduction (either fixed reduction or in %).

 

If you establish a specifix price, but modifing the base price (not applying a discount to the base) it doesn0t dected the price drop.

Hi,

if someone still have this problem, the reason may be in putting required quantity to more than 1.
As I have noticed, it only works for required quantity set to 1, which is quite inadequate in my opinion.

 

There is one workaround in override SpecificPrice class (classes/SpecificPrice.php).

You have to override: public static function getProductIdByDate it is approximately in 351 line.

 

 

create file: SpecificPrice.php

in: override/controllers/front/

to override SpecificPriceCore class write:

class SpecificPrice extends SpecificPriceCore

 

then paste there this function: public static function getProductIdByDate

and change line:

`from_quantity` = 1 AND

 

to e.g.

`from_quantity` >= 1 AND

 

 

The only think is that You have to take care of displaying this information on the product list, and product page. Probably the best solution is to use a module taht will hook to: displayProductPriceBlock - this should allow display this information in any view.
