FAQ
=======
Q) I have it setup as described but the total doesn't reflect the discount that has been applied.
A) That's normally caused by bad positioning of order totals. Check to makesure that nothing else is given the same sort order as this extension.
Q) When using a fixed price discount, the value shown is different to what's expected. Is this right?
A) This is because the discount is applied in your local currency. For example, if you give a discount of 10 (with your default currency being US Dollars) when a customer switches to British Pounds, the value will be converted.
Q) How do I do tierd discounting (i.e spend over £500, get 10% off. Spend over £250, get 5% off).
A) Add all discounts on the sitewide discount screen and the system will automatically take the highest discount available.
Q) I've got some category discounts but certain products appear to be attracting a higher discount than expected, why?
A) The system will provide a discount for ALL categories a product is listed in, regardless of whether this product has been counted towards a category discount.
Q) How do I add multi-buy discounts to a single product?
A) Create a "special offers" category with sort order -1, then add any products that the buy 2, get 1 free (for example) offer, applies to.
Q) I want to have a tiered multi-buy system, so I can set "if customer buys 5, they get 2% discount but if they buy 10, they get 5% - your system doesn't do this!"
A) It does. On the general settings page you need to enable the multi-buy discounts and then list them IN DESCENDING ORDER (greatest discount first).
