How do I take down the Promotional Code Field?

[bibleman]

Customers are always contacting us and asking what our promo code is, even when we are not running any promo. Please how can I remove that promotional code request field whenever it is not needed?

If you go into:

 

/whmcs_location/templates/orderforms/whatever_you_use

 

Open up viewcart.tpl or whatever the equivalent is for the template you are using and get rid of:

 

<form method="post" action="{$smarty.server.PHP_SELF}?a=view">
<input type="hidden" name="validatepromo" value="true" />
<strong>{$LANG.orderpromotioncode}</strong><br />
{if $promotioncode}{$promotioncode} - {$promotiondescription}<br /><a href="{$smarty.server.PHP_SELF}?a=removepromo">{$LANG.orderdontusepromo}</a>{else}<input type="text" name="promocode" size="20" /><br /><b /><input type="submit" class="green-but" value="{$LANG.orderpromovalidatebutton}" />{/if}
</form>

 

This would leave an empty space where the validate code form used to be, and your checkout/empty cart buttons would still be to the right of the page.

Thank you so much.

or if you don't want to use it, but you want the form to be there in the source code for the future:

 

{php}

/*

<code you want to get rid of>

*/

{/php}

Hi,

 

I follow what D9Hosting has advised but my promo code form is still showing to the public.. I am using the default template.

 

My url is at:

http://www.websproutconsulting.com/webhosting/whmcs/cart.php

 

Can anyone help?

Looks like you just got rid of the first line, and not the rest of it. This is just basic HTML you're removing, its very simple.

I have already deleted the whole block of codes but the promotional codes is still there..

 

AM i deleting the codes in the right file?

You can download the file and take a look, the codes are no longer there.. Would appreciate any help here, thank you.

You're using the "web20cart" template for your order form, not the default one. You edited the wrong template file.
