Sorry maybe I didn’t explain that last example very well $5, $5, $5, $499 would give a discount of $5 as u said it takes the cheapest item from the group of 4 but that is not what we want , and simply said we just want to apply a buy 3 get 1 free typical of a retail store.

For example , you walk in and pick up 5 items , if there’s a buy 3 get 1 promotion , cashiers going to ring in all 5 items (there’s no specific “grouping”) and the one with the lowest cost should be deducted , simple as that , with the rule multiplied for every 4 items . If the customer happens to buy 6 items , lowest priced item should be deducted and the other 5 items would be charged at regular price , if customer buys 8 items , the two lowest priced items would be deducted and 6 items charged at regular price , so on and so forth. We just want to know if the plugin can do this or not ?

Yes we understand how the grouping works but the above scenarios can be reversed to game the system by for example purchase products $5, $5, $5, $499 to get a discount of $499.

Is there a way to combine the functions of every nth item with lowest priced item? We want every nth item to be calculated based on the cart as a whole regardless of the add to cart sequence.

Is there anyway to discount the lowest priced item(s) in the entire order for every 4 items in the order? That way customers cannot trick the system by adding the cheapest items first and then more expensive items as the fourth ? Thanks

Here i have set to limit discount to every nth item with product percent discount 100% and minimum 4 items, but its deducting the price of the 4th and 8th item added to the cart (in the sequence) instead of taking the lowest price items . Discount is now $170 + $39 whereas discount should be $39 + $39

oh great! thanks for your help!

Ah I see, found the translation strings there now, thanks!

As for the coupon , it gets automatically applied when you login or register. I’ve created a sample coupon so you dont need to register and also cause our current promotion is ending soon.

Sample coupon code: TUBPHVZN (expires on the 20th)
Purchase anything worth $50 to get one free gift, with the gift multiplier on.

What i noticed is that when “Allow multiplication of the free products” is not checked , the cart refreshes instantly when customer selects their gift and “update cart” is not necessary, which matches that of the checkout page, and works perfectly. However when this function is checked , and the radio button becomes a quantity selector , customer needs to refresh the cart by themselves which makes things confusing cause then customers wont know when they need to press “update cart” and when they dont.

For the missing translation strings “Choose your free products” placeholder description and “Free Products” label, believe its all the same and you’ll help us check so i wont screen shot that part.

For the free products selection scenarios , please click the following link to add 2 of the required products to your cart and then the free product selection will show up : https://www.nourishme.com.hk/?add-to-cart=2880&quantity=2

If you do not choose a free product on the cart page , you will see the selection show up on the checkout page , but since the cart doesnt refresh by itself whereas the checkout page does not need to be updated with “update cart” , customers will not know there is a difference.

We also just noticed that the free product option shows up on the checkout page if no selection is added to cart however since the way to add free products is different on the cart and on the checkout page it seems confusing for our customers.

Scenario 1: input free product quantity and press update cart on cart page > adds to order
Scenario 2: input free product quantity on cart page and head to checkout without pressing update cart > doesnt add to order and also doesnt show the previous selection on checkout
Scenario 3: input free product on checkout page (nowhere to press update cart) > but product is still added to order when order is placed

Is there any way to save and update the free product on the cart page immediately after customer inputs a quantity instead of having to press update cart, so that it functions the same way as on the checkout page?

[ML]

I’ve tried but no strings show up for the placeholder description, and there also arent any admin text strings. By the way, funny thing is when i was using the free version the coupon description was translatable using strings. The pro version has no strings for the coupon description nor the free product placeholder description.

For the time being, ive used a gettext snippet to replace it first, but if theres another solution, please let me know, thanks.
