I.e. if I buy 2 items for $100 and have a $10 coupon code, I want the price of each item to now be $90. I don't want to subtract $10 from the total cost of $200.

I want to apply $5 off every item in an order, but only if they have a valid code.")* Hi, If you use the "percentage" field of the coupon then you can have the value of the coupon based on the value of each product in the cart. But if you enter a fixed value, then it will be fixed for the whole cart, regardless of the number of products in the cart. Now, there is no option to have a coupon code validate a discount value which will be calculated as a fixed amount multiplied by the number of products in the cart with HikaShop's default features. What you could check then is AWOCoupon: [ awodev.com/products/joomla/awocoupon](https://awodev.com/products/joomla/awocoupon) It is a coupon system compatible with HikaShop which supports much more advanced options and rules than HikaShop's coupon system. So it might be able to do that. You should check with their support.

I want to apply $5 off every item in an order, but only if they have a valid code.")* Is it possible to make some adjustments to the back-end code to achieve this. While the AwoCoupon plugin may achieve what we're looking for, it has a bunch of unneeded features. All we're looking to do is make it so that the coupon code is applied based on the quantity in the cart. So if there is 5 of the items, the code is applied 5 times. Can we add some code in the back end to achieve this?

Now, to help you follow me step by step : - In your file administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/**discount.php** - Go in this file to the **recalculateDiscountValue** function - Find where the "**$coupon->discount\_flat\_amount**" is used to process calculation, and modify it like Nicolas guide you **OR** like you need to be processed. **Note :** Take care to process your modification in **each case** in order to have a consistent results for each case, especially for product variants, and to keep this logical with your taxes settings.
