hey,

I hope this one helps someone. I had looked through a lot of forum articles, googled, and other sources but could't find a solution. So since I did stumble on it finally I am putting this down for someone who might find it useful.
Many of us have used the contribution http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,1501/
in case if you want to add a 0-9 listing by building a range...you could just add this piece of code. Nice n easy trick:)

I am starting this thread so that people can add just small small things which can be useful to a lot of other people:)

Time to give back to Oscommerce Team for all they have done for us:)

Another quick add-on is to display savings in amount and percentage value. You could use the MSRP contribution or if you want a quick way out you could just play a bit with listing code and do it without adding another query and burdening your server!!!

You just have to update the specials table...run a query or add individual specials for various items. I actually made a 5% reduction on all my products_price. So now we have two prices for all products....the regular price and specials price. The specials is also listed by default in almost all oscommerce pages which display prices. So only thing you need to do is add another line to display the SAVINGS

EXAMPLE

QUOTE

You Save: </td><td class="smalltext">' . $currencies->display_price(($listing['products_price'] - $listing['specials_new_products_price']), tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . ' (' . ceil((($listing['products_price'] - $listing['specials_new_products_price']) / $listing['products_price']) * 100) . '%)

I am posting just a example. This is from product_listing in includes/modules.....please do remember different files have different queries so you have to make sure you match these.

QUOTE

case 'PRODUCT_LIST_PRICE':
$lc_align = 'right';
if (tep_not_null($listing['specials_new_products_price'])) {
$lc_text = '�<s>' . $currencies->display_price($listing['products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . '</s>��' . $currencies->display_price($listing['specials_new_products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . '�';
} else {
$lc_text = '�' . $currencies->display_price($listing['products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . '�';
}
break;

see and compare:

/* $lc_text = '�<s>' . $currencies->display_price($listing['products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . '</s>��' . $currencies->display_price($listing['specials_new_products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . '�'; */

$lc_text = '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td class="smalltext">Wholesale Price:</td><td class="smalltext"><s>' . $currencies->display_price($listing['products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) .

$lc_text = '�' . $currencies->display_price($listing['products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($listing['products_tax_class_id'])) . '�';

Just use a bit of commonsense and this should be easy to implement wherever it can be and wherever you want it to be:)

Changing the way breadcrumbs look:

In the header file search for

QUOTE

<td class="headerNavigation">  <?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(' » '); ?></td>

change it to

QUOTE

<td class="headerNavigation">  <?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(' : '); ?></td>

if you want dots instead of >> also....u could change the color by adding Font properties inside the brackets or in the <td> tag whichever way works for you.

Since we are talking about breadcrumbs, here is another cool thing you could do...some of you who would wanna move it around somewhere out of the header.php...that piece of line is what you can delete from header.php and add wherever you would prefer it

****would prefer if others also add any lil bit of neat tricks to help new users or people looking for simpler but effective add-ons for their sites***

I have this for product_info.php:

CODE

$products_price = '<s>' . $currencies->display_price($product_info['products_price'], tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id'])) . '</s> ' . $currencies->display_price($new_price, tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id'])) . ' Risparmi il </td><td class="smalltext">' . $currencies->display_price(($product_info['products_price'] - $product_info['new_price']), tep_get_tax_rate($product_info['products_tax_class_id'])) . ' (' . ceil((($product_info['products_price'] - $product_info['new_price']) / $product_info['products_price']) * 100) . '%) . '';

You can tall me why Not working ????

Thanks
