Something that's been bugging me for a little while... it only affects a few customers so far...

I have the cart set for "Show Member Prices by Role". I have the role established, and the Member Price on the main product screen as 0.00; under Member Pricing, I have the "Member Price Label", and the member price established. Member price label 2 and member price 2 are blank, and 0 respectively.

So, here are my issues. First, see the attached screen shot. It's showing the REGULAR price of $2.00, and then the member price in a separate table column, to the right. There is no mention of the Member Price Label. Also, the "Options" button frustrates me, because that negates using the mini-cart and adding stuff in there that way.

Of course, the bug still exists that when they click on options, and add it to the cart, it adds at the $2.00 price, instead of the $.49 price, but Dave is aware of that.

Optimally, I would like it NOT to put the second price in there, and just have the $0.49 price replacing the $2.00 price if the person is logged in who gets member pricing.

IMHO, if "Member price by role" is selected, and the user is part of that role, the regular prices should "Disappear", or have a redline through them, with the member price showing instead. --- and the member price certainly shouldn't be stuck out there to the right of everything else, just adding more confusion to the look and field.

Someone please advise/comment on these issues.

Bump.

Since I have no need for the options button, I copy the Add_To_Cart2 to the Options button image. The problem with this is that products with member prices take you to the product detail page, yet regular products adds one to the cart. I think member prices should not display the Options image, they should add to cart like add to cart. You can always click on the image to get to options. I'm not sure how this can be resolved to be consistent. Then I fix ProductList.ascx and edit the template to add a table row to move the member price and label above the regular price.

We can't control the normal price being shown and I really don't want it displayed but it is no different then looking at the products without logging in, or even comparing the regular price from our published catalog. I really like your idea to hide the regular price. Perhaps an option in Member Pricing & Discounts called "Hide regular price for member prices"

Everytime I upgrade, I have to go through this routine.

As far as the member pricing bug, it seems to work in 4.00, but member pricing does not work using Quick Order Entry.

Another little bug is Add to Cart Requires Login. If you click add to cart from the product list it works. If you click on a product image, then add to cart it does not. Or you can can click on View Cart and login is not required. To handle different behaviors I just turn it off.

The member pricing definately doesn't work if you are using Product Class prices. It *shows* the regular price, and the member price. If you go to product details, it just shows the member price. But when you add it to the cart, it adds it at the regular price.

I am using member pricing by role and it works. Likewise it shows the regular price and member price (messing up the page for multiple columns), product details shows member price and add to cart uses the member price.

What make things complicated for us is when our existing customers have not been assigned to the proper role before adding to the cart. I used to automate from the new user email, but sometimes they would already have things in their cart and pay for it at the wrong price. Now I get around it by using a SQL trigger on the DNN user, which adds the appropriate role based on specific email extensions.

I have not tried product class prices.
