Minimum order help

[bkpie]

I use the minimum order contribution and it works great site wide. What I would like to do though is just have it work for my wholesale customer group and not my retail customer group. Not being a fluent coder could one of our php wizards here direct me in the right or better yet write direction. It was an easy mod to install but not sure how to just get it to work with one customer group.

look at how the pricing selection work (it uses the group information) then set the entire min order contrib in a giant if statement based on the flag...

For anyone else who uses minimum order contribution but wants to use it with sppc the changes are as follows Below assumes I want minimum order only on customer group 1 which is my wholesale customer group change to whatever group you want

Change the text shown in the minimum order contribution where it applys in checkout_confirmation.php, checkout_payment.php, checkout_shipping.php, and checkout_process.php from

// check order total minimum
if ($order->info['subtotal'] < MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT) {
tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'));
}
to
// check order total minimum Wholesale
if ($order->info['subtotal'] < MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT && $_SESSION['sppc_customer_group_id'] == '1') {
tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'));
}

and in shopping_cart.tpl.php change

// minimum order total
if ($cart->show_total() < MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT) {
?>

to

// minimum order total
if ($cart->show_total() < MIN_ORDER_AMOUNT && $_SESSION['sppc_customer_group_id'] == '1') {
?>

If you do not have the minimum order contribution installed you must install first then make these changes. This allows retail buyers to check out with no minimum and wholesale buyers to check out only after reaching minimum.

So I set up the modified minimum order contribution to only apply to the Wholesale group as noted above.
This works great, but now my client wants it set up so that, instead there is only a minimum order for wholesale customers the first time they order....
does anyone have an idea on how I can do that? Thanks

To do it simply just have your wholesale group 1 then create another group wholesale group 2

Enter the same prices in both groups. Have a minimum on group 1 and once the customer orders go to there account in admin and switch them to group 2 easily which does not have a minimum order.

Otherwise it would entail a bit more coding since you can only set one price in configuration section of your admin.
