I know that this feature has been heavily requested, and I have a couple of clients who really need this feature. It was on the candidate features list for 3.2, but I don't know if it actually made it.

Has any work been done on this feature? Is there any release timeframe?

I am willing to help with development/testing/whatever I can, I just don't want to start working on something on my own only to find that it is 80% complete.

Thanks,
Quint

Hi Lobo,

I can do this via hooks, and have worked with the buildAmount hook on a membership sign up form.

I was just wondering if it was going to make it into any upcoming releases since it was on the feature list.

The problem with doing this via a hook, at least for one of my clients, is that the discount isn't a straight percentage, but a dollar amount difference. I would have to create a custom form for each event (which is 15 or more events per year) with the hook implementation. Multiply that by 3 or 4 clients, and that becomes a significant amount of work.

I would be willing to work on a module to add this functionality if something isn't already on the drawing board. I was picturing something like Ubercart's price by role module that could be applied to each price set.

That sounds like quite a project!

I may have to find another way of implementing this feature.

Maybe just go direct to the db and get the price set info?
