Title: it doesnt work right… Last modified: August 31, 2016 --- # it doesnt work right… * Resolved [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/) * I’m following examples here: [http://www.varktech.com/documentation/pricing-deals/examples/](http://www.varktech.com/documentation/pricing-deals/examples/) * When I do Buy Each Unit Apply Rule one per cart Get Discount Next One * It works. But it just randomly? picks instead of cheaper one. I’m assuming lesser expensive discount is pro version? * BUT!!! * 1. When I change rule to unlimited rule usage per cart, so u can buy multiple things at once, it applies discount to ALL units not every two units. * 2. I tried… Buy unit quantity 1 Get next unit quantity 1 or Next $$ value 1 but either of that works. * 3. Also same as above Buy unit 2 get next unit 1 does not work at all. * Please let me know if there’s a bug? or if i’m not setting it right? * I’m trying to do Buy 1 Get 2nd item 50% off Buy 2 get 3rd item 50% off * Thank you. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 15 total) * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002282) * Hi, Thanks for your query. While there’s a lot of info provided, I’m not really sure where you’re trying to go. * You mentioned a ‘cheapest’ deal – it’s important to understand the difference between ‘cheapest in the group’ and ‘cheapest in the cart’ which are entirely different things. * You mention two different deals you want to create: * Buy 1 Get 2nd item 50% off Buy 2 get 3rd item 50% off * 1. is ‘cheapest’ involved in these rules? 2. creating these two rules will create an overlapping discount – if you buy 3 items, the 2nd item will get a discount( rule 1), as will the 3rd (rule 2) – is this what you had in mind? * Best, Vark * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002290) * Thx for super quick response! * Let me rephrase and let’s simplify. I’m trying to create ANY product (dont’ care about groups or category for now) * buy 1 get 2nd item 50% off. item 1: $10 item 2: $15 * I want discount provided to $10 by default. That’s what I mean by cheapest one. * But also in same rule if there’s 3 items (but will only qualify for 1 discount item 1: $10 item 2: $15 item 3: $5 * I still want discount to be applied to $10 item. * Does that make sense? * To clarify, i’m trying to prevent someone buying $5 item then adding $50 item to get $25 discount. * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002292) * Hi, Sorry, i must be thick today, but I’m not getting any of this. * Please summarize the discounts you want to create in this fashion: * “Buy X get Y at a discount” * Try to think of this as a general rule, rather than ‘in this situation do this, in that situation do that’ * All these qualifications are not really coming together for me… * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002296) * sure. * ‘Buy 1 get 1 at a 50% off discount’ * Simple. The only thing I want to avoid is the more expensive one in the cart being on 50% off discount. * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002297) * So is what you want: * “Buy 2 get cheaper of the two 50% off” * or * “Buy 2 or more get cheapest in the cart 50% off” * ?? * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002298) * Yes * and * ‘Buy 1 get 2nd highest item 50% off’ <- given there’s 3 items in there. BUT to be honest, this is NOT important. * If I can make 1st part work, I’d be happy for now and I can try this out… and hold all other complains until i get pro… lol * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002300) * Hi, Still confused…. * I gave you two options, which one did you choose??? * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002301) * first one please. * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002304) * Here’s the writeup on that: * As in intro, it’s important to think about Cheapest deals in the correct way… * If you want a deal where you buy 1, get a 2nd item but the discount is on the cheaper of the two, the rule should be: ‘buy 2 get the cheapest at a discount’. * —————————- – Cheapest in the group – —————————- * [http://www.varktech.com/documentation/pricing-deals/examples/#cheapest](http://www.varktech.com/documentation/pricing-deals/examples/#cheapest) Buy any 2 Laptops, get the less expensive 20% off * Cheapest in the group deals are very literal. In this example the counts the first two items it finds, and discounts the cheaper of the two. If the rule repeats, it goes on to the next two. * – select Deal Type : Discount Cheapest / Most Expensive – hit the ‘publish’ /‘ update button – ignore the error messages – then when you get there, Discount Applies To : Cheapest Product will be available * for a group, change the following: Show Me : Advanced Buy Group Amount Applies To : All Products Buy Group Amount Type : Buy Unit Quantity Buy Group Amount Count : XXX desired amount filter details and whatever discounting you desire. * Cheapest in the group deals are very literal. In this example the counts the first two items it finds, and discounts the cheaper of the two. If the rule repeats, it goes on to the next two. * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002306) * [http://awesomescreenshot.com/0175l6gjd1](http://awesomescreenshot.com/0175l6gjd1) * Advanced button makes whole lot of sense!!! 🙂 * But still havign an issue. so I put 1 as XX and 1 as YY But it says I need to put more than 1. * I tried putting 2 and 2 (XX and YY) but that didint’ make discount on cart of 4 either. what am i doing wrong? * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002310) * Please go and compare the rule example mentioned above: [http://www.varktech.com/documentation/pricing-deals/examples/#cheapest](http://www.varktech.com/documentation/pricing-deals/examples/#cheapest) with the rule you’ve created. * You need to change a large number of things: Deal Action : Buy something, discount the item Buy Group Amount Count : 2 Buy Group Amount Applies To : All Products Get Group Amount Type : Discount Each Unit * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002313) * YAY!!! it’s working!!! * Thanks! damn. that was a lot more confusing than I expected. however, I can see from complexity, it’s designed to be able to offer pretty much any kinds of deals. * Now, is this always automatically on sale? or is it possible to tie such deals with a coupon code? * Plugin Author [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * (@vark) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002316) * Excellent! * Tie-ing deals to a coupon is a pro function… * Thread Starter [bulewold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bulewold/) * (@bulewold) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002556) * Bug report! * I noticed that this plugin somehow hides price on ‘Variable product’.

Retest. (5) rinse and repeat until conflict identified. * Best, Vark Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 15 total) The topic ‘it doesnt work right…’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce.svg) * [Pricing Deals for WooCommerce](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/pricing-deals-for-woocommerce/reviews/) * 15 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [vark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vark/) * Last activity: [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-right-1/#post-7002558) * Status: resolved
