Is there a way to individually select items for discounts in Hikashop Starter. --- **Owner** - [ Aries Games & Miniatures](https://www.ariesgamesandminis.com) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQ2LWRpc2NvdW50LWNvdXBvbi84NjE0ODItc3RhcnRlci1hbmQtZGlzY291bnRzP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile")** - [![Mohamed Thelji's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar6861.png)](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji) Less More - Posts: 12953 - Thank you received: 1778 - - - 13 years 1 month ago [\#120861](#120861) by [Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile") Replied by *[Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile")* on topic *[Starter and Discounts](/forum/46-discount-coupon/861482-starter-and-discounts#120861 "All...I need a little direction on how to handle this.

I was going to simply use the Starter for the first 2-3 years to make sure the business would get up off the ground, and if it did...upgrade later. --- **Owner** - [ Aries Games & Miniatures](https://www.ariesgamesandminis.com) Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQ2LWRpc2NvdW50LWNvdXBvbi84NjE0ODItc3RhcnRlci1hbmQtZGlzY291bnRzP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[Bingmedia](/forum/user/471-bingmedia "View Bingmedia's Profile")** - [![Bingmedia's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar_2013-06-16.jpg)](/forum/user/471-bingmedia "View Bingmedia's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/471-bingmedia) Less More - Posts: 9 - Thank you received: 0 - - - - [](http://www.eriksenoddeirik.no/) - 12 years 9 months ago [\#139551](#139551) by [Bingmedia](/forum/user/471-bingmedia "View Bingmedia's Profile") Replied by *[Bingmedia](/forum/user/471-bingmedia "View Bingmedia's Profile")* on topic *[Starter and Discounts](/forum/46-discount-coupon/861482-starter-and-discounts#139551 "All...I need a little direction on how to handle this.

How do you select what products get what discount? Thanks")* I have the same problem. I use the Business edition, and I need to have campaign prices (at various % rates) on a few products for a limited period. I used VirtueMart many years ago, and there I could set up a new discount and assign products to it, AND I could specify a discount within the product parameters. Very simple and straightforward. It also displayed the normal price in red and with a strikethrough, and made it very clear that this product is currently discounted. RedShop can do this also. I'm very surprised to learn that HikaShop can't. When will you implement this? Notice I asked "when", not "if". ![;)](/media/kunena/emoticons/11.png ";)") Discounting just one product or an entire category is not sufficient. Coupons won't work either: 4 different discount rates will need to have a coupon each, that the customer needs to claim. Way too much hassle for both the customer and the shop owner. HikaShop is good, but it needs a better discount system to be GREAT. I hope to see that soon. ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/8.png ":)") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQ2LWRpc2NvdW50LWNvdXBvbi84NjE0ODItc3RhcnRlci1hbmQtZGlzY291bnRzP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86289 - Thank you received: 14265 - - 12 years 9 months ago [\#139567](#139567) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Starter and Discounts](/forum/46-discount-coupon/861482-starter-and-discounts#139567 "All...I need a little direction on how to handle this.

Then, whenever you need to have that discount applied to a product, simply add that category as a second category to the product and that's it. HikaShop will also display the new price next to the old price striken through if you configured the "show discounted prices" option of the configuration to do that.

Nicolas, as mentioned in another post...I got sidetracked on a few issues, although I should have resolved this before my son was born, but I did not. I currently have Hikishop Starter installed as it was what my webmaster setup for me. Am I able to assign different discounts to categories in the Starter Edition, or do I need the paid version? I ask because since the start, I've been struggling to even break even on my website, and I've been given the chance to carry some exclusive items ONLY IF I don't discount them beyond what the manufacture does...so I NEED this to work as it will either make or break me on the business venture I'm trying to do. If it won't work in the Starter Edition but will in the Business Edition, that's fine...but if it can work in the Starter Edition, please let me know what to do. I tried the quoted steps and either I'm doing it wrong, or it doesn't work in Starter Edition.
