Unit Pricing in Cart

I'm sure that i'm overlooking something simple, but how do I add unit price display to the cart? I've looked everywhere and searched the forum and docs. On a deadline here and would appreciate any input.

Thanks

Aubrey

There is no option for that and no one requested that so far. The problem is that the cart module is usually displayed on the side and doesn't have enough space to display well so we removed that column in order to offer more space for the other columns.

If you want to add that column, you need to edit the file "cart" of the view "product" via the menu Display->Views and change the code in order to display that additional column.

Thanks for the response. We are using the cart a little different so it will be helpful to have it. Should be able to add it.

Should i start another thread to ask about payment options? I would like to change the order of the options in checkout and have the top one default selected.

The payment methods are displayed based on their ordering. You can change their ordering in the plugins manager of Joomla.

Well of course... that's easy - thank you again. Support around here is exceptional!

On the previous question, I added this to the product cart view and it's showing the unit header, but the total and not the unit prices int that column:

In the table header:

<th id="hikashop_cart_product_price_title" class="hikashop_cart_product_price_title hikashop_cart_title">
<?php echo JText::_('CART_PRODUCT_UNIT_PRICE'); ?>
</th>
After the product name </td>:

<td class="hikashop_cart_product_price_value">
<?php
$this->row=&$row;
$this->unit=true;
echo $this->loadTemplate();
?>
</td>

Also - I'm going to upgrade to business today to get the customer order fields - will the upgrade overwrite this type of view customization or the language file?

The unit variable is not used in the listing_price file of the view product. It's only used in the listing_price file of the view checkout.
Thus, you need to port the code below from one to the other in order to do that:
if(!empty($this->unit) && isset($price->unit_price)){
$price =& $price->unit_price;
}

If you customize the views via the interface and that you customize your translations via the override area, you won't loose them when you update/upgrade HikaShop.

Okay, I added that to the product listing_price view, but now both the unit price column and the price column show the unit price??

Of course. You need to set $this->unit back to false after your code.

Absolutely perfect. Thank you so much!
