Fixing Group Discount / No Group Products issues.


RavenMedia

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

So we've spent a lot of coding time getting WHMCS ready to launch on our site... and whoops, we just found out while testing how useless group discount is and you can't make group products. Our bad, but for a cart claiming to allow reselling, these are very basic things.

 

Group Discount - Support was kind enough to tell us clients have no idea they have a discount until they reach the payment processor. If they have credits, they never see the discount (unless they check the invoice afterwards). This seems completely asinine. What good is the discount if it doesn't update all the prices and remains invisible to the client?

 

Group Products (Groups that have their own products, I mean( - We saw this being talked about on the forums three years ago. Silly us thinking something that made too much sense to have, would still be left out. Has anyone created an add-on to fix this glaring oversight?

 

WHMCS had seemed awesome.. but without these fixes, it's pretty much useless for anyone wanting to resell and offer resellers lower prices or discounts. Hoping we didn't just waste a lot of time and money?

 

Thanks.

Found a work around.. I guess.

 

Make Product Group, set to hidden. Leave the Products as visible, and we can direct link to each product.

 

And now all we need to do is completely code an entirely new order page, with links to each product. Set up a forms for the different product groups and 23 different products. Then password protect the page, since only resellers would be allowed to go to it.. I don't see any way to make certain pages only available to certain client groups.

 

Geez.. that's still very poor option. Someone has to have made an addon to fix this? This is so completely insane not to already be part of WHMCS it's makes zero sense.
