ivaserver Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 posted too quick I thought i had the answer by creating a dicount code but it discounts even when a domain is not ordered. Has anyone got any ideas on how to config? I would like to offer an option of 12 months free hosting when a domain name is registered. then charge after the free 12 months.

AndrewMKP Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Just a quick one but can you not make a 'addon' for the free hosting? Make the 12 months free hosting applicable to domain registration? The only thing is users would have to tick the box. I have not done this myself but just looking at it you should be able to? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhouck Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 You could make a promo code for the hosting, and have them also purchase the hosting and enter the promo code. The promo code could be emailed to them in their domain welcome email. This is hardly ideal. I agree we need a way to automatically include extra products when one product is ordered, and at the same time apply any promo code automatically. These are two separate functions that we need which could be used together. Setting the hosting as an add-on to the domain is not really the best way to achieve this as hosting is not necessarily a sub option of the domain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weelinx Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 To ivaserver, in case you are still searching for a solution to this. This is what I did: Play around with the cart template file configureproductdomain.tpl. Find this line: {if $owndomainenabled} and change it to: {if $owndomainenabled && $pid != xx} where xx is the product id of your free-hosting product. I did that, tested it, and it works. Please share with me should the above solution create problem, 'coz I haven't met any problem since then. Enjoy ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
