Price Matrix for Categories

[Mark]

PPOM price options get overridden by a quantity discount pricing plugin I was using called Dynamic Pricing. I decided to disable that plugin and use the Price matrix instead. However, this feature does not extend beyond the cart line items. I need it to give a discount to all items in the cart that are in the same category.

What are the odds that this will happen soon? Can development be accelerated with modest $$$?

Can PPOM be made to apply the option price after Dynamic Pricing plugin reduces the price? I.e. is there a plugin order that I can set?

Hi Mark,

we are working on discount price with PPOM, either to make PPOM comaptible with a one good discount price or add our own discount price based on categories.

[Mark]

Ok. I’m glad it is a work in progress. Any thoughts on how long this could take? A week? 6 months? I have to figure this out quick, and the current only solution is to drop PPOM. Which is disappointing because I like how flexible it is.

Mark, it may take 4-6 weeks.

Ok, do think it is better to have the ability to discount the base product and the options separately?

For instance, maybe discounts on the base product is category based meaning it can apply discounts to all items in the cart that are in the same category. But the options that are in each line item are discounted differently.

Also, the ability to discount by percentage is desired.

Hi,

Mark, dealing with price is really a painful work and it should be :), so we are thinking on this very deeply how to handle this. So we will share all plan how discounts are being applied when we add this feature. We certainly consider our clients suggestions in this regards.

[Mark]

Thank you for working on this. In the mean time, can you look to see if there is a quick fix for having the Dynamic Pricing plug-in apply the discount to the base product and not overriding the final price after the options are added? The Dynamic Pricing plug-in does have a rules execution order.

Maybe it’s better to just piggy back onto this plug-in and get your options pricing working with it. Your discounts could be just applied to the options itself and not to the base price.

I have also tried this plug-in but the price is overwritten as well. They do have compatibility code for a different plug-in. Maybe you can make a tweak to this code for PPOM.

add_filter( 'wdp_save_cart_item_keys', function ( $keys ) {
 $keys[] = 'addons';
 return $keys;
});

add_filter("wdp_get_product_price", function($price, $product, $price_mode, $item_meta){
  if( !empty($item_meta["addons"]) ) {
    foreach($item_meta["addons"] as $addon)
      if( !empty($addon["price"]) )
        $price += $addon["price"];
  }
  return $price;
},10,4);

Hi Mark,

thanks for sharing in such details, I am looking all these options and will get back to you with good news.

[Mark]

Can you explain how the Basic PPOM and the Pro PPOM plugin work together? Can I uninstall the basic plugin now that the Pro version is installed?

If we create a compatibility fix for the PPOM basic, will it apply for the Pro as well?

[nmedia]

You need to use both plugin at same time.

[Mark]

Hi,

Has any improvements been made to discounts in PPOM regarding applying discounts to all products in the cart if they are in the same category?

Thanks.

Hi Mark,

Sorry on this, but it’s not added. But we are working on PPOM to make it compatible with Dynamic prices plugin. Soon I will share update on this in release.
