Hello i use Event Gallery Extended 3.5.2. I have not updated it to avoid problems or compatibility issues.

I have a simple need: I want to offer to my customers a discount.

I know that with Scale Price I can use discount or free items scaled by quantity but the problem is this:

If I offer different Images types in my store i can't manage a discount value for all items, but i need to apply discount for each image type.

So if In my store there are:

Image type a
Image type b
Image type c

I want that if a customer buys more than 3 items the first 3 items will be free.
With Event Gallery it is not possible.

I can set this:

Image type a -> Scale price: Quantity: 3, Price:0, Quantity 4, Price:1$
Image type b -> Scale price: Quantity: 3, Price:0, Quantity 4, Price:1$
Image type c -> Scale price: Quantity: 3, Price:0, Quantity 4, Price:1$

If a customer buys only 4 items (1 X image type a, 2 X image type b and 1 X image type c) he will not pay any items.


I can also set this:

Image type a -> Scale price: Quantity: 1, Price:0, Quantity 2, Price:1$
Image type b -> Scale price: Quantity: 1, Price:0, Quantity 2, Price:1$
Image type c -> Scale price: Quantity: 1, Price:0, Quantity 2, Price:1$

If a customer buys only 4 items (1 X image type a, 2 X image type b and 1 X image type c) he will pay only 1 item.
If a customer buys only 4 items (4 X image type b) he will obtain only 1 free item.


I want that could be used a generic rule of discount not based on image type but based on total items in the cart.

in this way I could be able to set scale price based on the total items ordered (in different image format).

The other solution is to use a copon box that let to obtain a discount (quantity discount for all image forma or for a specific image format - price discount of pre-set amount).

Is it possible? I don't know if this feature is present in latest releases of the component (if is present i can update component).

You're using Joomla 3.6 with Event Gallery 3.5? This should actually not work without modifications. I highly recommend to use the lastest version. In any case you need to update to Joomla! 3.6.5 since it fixes a critical security issue. If your site is not hacked until now it might be pretty soon.

Currently there is no discount feature implemented. The feature which comes in closest is adding a surcharge. If you add a surcharge of -10 if the cart subtotal is more than 50 you can give a discount automatically. I know it's not what you actually want to do, but maybe it helps a little bit.
