Hey guys,
I've been modifying opencart to create my website how I want it, everything is going good and then I make some products have specials and realise none of them are showing up in the specials box. So I check the specials page, no items there!
The specials module is enabled..
Can anyone advise me on what I should be checking for to see if there is a problem? or what might be causing it?
Cheers!
*bump*
Still need help with this if anyone can offer assistance?

Unless you can describe in detail what modifications you have been making to OpenCart, and what version of OC you are making these modifications to, how can we begin to know whether your problem might be a template error, a database error, a human input error, etc.?megahuman wrote:I've been modifying opencart to create my website how I want it...

Is there a way that would make it easy for somebody to help me? Like should I upload it to a web server for you?
I'm using 1.4.9.5
I'm currently running on WAMP Server(incase that could be a problem)
Modules I've installed:
E-Category
AddThis Module
Homepage Slideshow
Coming Soon module
I've basically been re-skinning my opencart, moving things around, adding/removing divs and such
If I've changed stuff in the Stylesheet, could that effect my specials from showing up?

Go to this link:

As you see on the right hand side, i see no specials. Nor do I see any specials on the specials page:

I just visited your site and looked at the description of your product "Specials Test". I saw the normal price of GBP82.00, but without the red strikethrough and special price beside it.
Can you confirm that there is indeed a special in the Admin area's description of this item? Can you confirm that the start and end dates of the special make that special valid for today's date?
If we're lucky, you have made a mistake in creating the special, like by having it already expired. If we're unlucky, you have not made such a mistake and you will probably need to discuss the problem with your template developer.

Hey, thanks for getting back to me.
When I edit the product and go to the specials tab, the date is 5th of June 2011 - 29th June 2011. In the admin area its striked out and says the item should cost $25
I'm the template developer, I've coded the site and everything, I just have no clue why this is happening...

Did you find a solution to this at all as I am getting the same issue as well 
I have everything under special set to zero for every field and for every customer group and the price will only reflect the special once it is added into the cart but not on the page. I have done very little modding at all to the cart (only have one installed actually - the one for simplifying if you sell downloadables) other then just basic CSS so I wouldnt think it would be a template modification issue just not sure what else it might be.
Any help would be appreciated as I do give out a lot of free items but want those items to only be free for certain customers etc in some cases and also even for items I want free for everyone I would still want it "marked down" to free to show the original value of the item they are getting free.

Well in my case I sorted out one issue...neither the special nor the discount price can be $0.00 (free) If I put in $0.01 it does show up for me with the line through it etc even with every other value showing as 0.
Question: Anyone know how to make it accept a $0.00 price and show that on the page?

Back on topic since I went a touch off:
Do you still have the original template installed? If so, try switching back to the default template real quick in the admin and see if the sale/discount prices show up for you then. If they do then you know it's a template/CSS issue. If they dont then it has to be some mod or something else doing it. (Granted that won't work if you changed any core files outside your own templates folder or if you changed the core template instead of creating a new template folder with all your file changes in it)

Hey there!
My problem was actually something completely stupid. I just didn't have it set to the right customer group haha.
I'm not quite sure why you can't set specials to $0
Sorry I can't help

Has anyone sorted out how to solve the issue if the item in question is marked to $0 (so marked down to free)?
So far best I can do is mark it down to $0.01 and it'll work but then it wants to send people to paypal to pay the penny lol

I've just come across this issue in Opencart 1.5.3.1 default installation, demo products only.
Specials were not showing because one product had two specials assigned, both for Default customer group and both with indefinite dates (0000-00-00). That caused some sort of conflict I suppose. The moment I removed one special from this product, special prices are displayed correctly.
Maybe this will help someone.
Cheers.

I am using Opencart 1.5.6 for my store. I had the same issue some of the products not showing it's Special price.
I noticed whenever when I put start day as Today for some products this happens. So what I did was put a day before start day problem solved.
Hope it works for you!
