Combine Setup and Recurring Price, or....

[bbhost]

Hello,

 

Is there a way to combine the setup and recurring cost of a product, so instead of displaying like:

 

$100.00 + $50.00 Setup Fee

 

It just displays as $150.00 next to the product cost.

 

Then under the total in the checkout it will still display the recurring cost?

 

Or alternatively, is there a way to have the first period as one cost and the the following periods at a reduced cost.

 

Tried doing this with coupon codes however didn't really work out.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

 

Just to let you know I managed to get around this using a custom {if} statement.

 

However, just means I have to manually edit the theme every time I change the price of the product in question. So ideally if there is a better more automated solution it would be great.

 

Cheers

Why not code it to look for "Setup Fee" and if so, add the two numbers - works irrespective of your price

Then you can share the code so other users benefit from your skills

Thanks Rob,

 

Did try this method first, however needed to be able to dissect {$product.pricingtext} and it is encoded.

 

Will give it another shot when I get a bit more time though.
