Greetings,
Any thoughts how to handle products and brands that have MAP restrictions?
Couple of different scenarios:
1) Voucher code EXCLUSION (example: Apply voucher to entire store EXCEPT Brand1, Brand2, etc)
2) MAP Exclusion by Item and Brand: replace price with text - "Price too low to show" type of thing.
Ideas?
Thanks, David!
Will take a bit for me to wrap my head around it - but looking like these mods will be great!
Hi,
Regarding specific exclusions one way to do this would be a modification of the change described in this comment, and using the standard "!" operator to indicate NOT.
To try this, in includes/tapestry.php, look for the following code around line 188:
if ($voucher["match_value"])...and REPLACE with:
if (strpos($voucher["match_value"],"&")!==FALSE){
$parts1 = explode("&",$voucher["match_value"]);
foreach($parts1 as $part1)
{
$parts2 = explode("=",trim($part1));
if (substr($parts2[1],0,1)=="!")
{
$parts2[1] = substr($parts2[1],1);
if ($product[$parts2[0]]==$parts2[1])
{
$isValid = FALSE;
break;
}
}
else
{
if ($product[$parts2[0]]!=$parts2[1])
{
$isValid = FALSE;
break;
}
}
}
}
elseif ($voucher["match_value"])
This new section of code will be invoked if the Match Criteria value contains "&" (making the Match Type and Match Field values redundant), so if a voucher code is valid for a particular merchant (voucher codes are per merchant anyway, but it will still need to be specified for this mod) but excludes Sony and Panasonic then you could use a Match Criteria of:
merchant=Merchant Name & brand = !Sony & brand = !PanasonicRegarding MAP, if it would be feasible to manage a config file containing MAP exclusions, for example by creating the following code as feeds/map.php
<?php$map["Merchant 1"] = array("Brand 1","Brand 2");
$map["Merchant 2"] = array("Brand 3","Brand 4");
// etc.
?>
Then in html/prices.php, look for where the price is displayed by the following code around line 13:
<td><strong><?php print $config_currencyHTML.$product["price"]; ?></strong>...and REPLACE with:
<td><?php require_once("feeds/map.php"); ?>
<?php if (!in_array($product["brand"],$map[$product["merchant"]])): ?>
<strong><?php print $config_currencyHTML.$product["price"]; ?></strong>
<?php else: ?>
<strong>Too Low To Show!</strong>
<?php endif; ?>
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
David.
