does it work if the discount is < 100%, say a 50% discount?

1. Did it ever work (since that was never our main use case, i suspect it was not well tested)

2. Any chance you can take a look at the code and help debug it

You might want to file an issue for this on the issue tracker so others are aware of it. We do hope that more community folks help maintain and bug fix this extension

ok cool, we'll push the issue to the next release and when u get back u can take a look and potentially provide a patch

I'm running civiCRM 4.3.5 on Drupal 6 and have installed cividiscount  which seems to work nicely.

I've just tried to set up a more complicated event/price set combo with varying discounts depending on the type of membership our constituents have:

eg  in the price set I have

Item 1
Item 2
Item 3

I want to apply say a monetary discount of 5 to item 1,  7 to item 2  and 10 to item 3. 

I set up the discounts and applied them to the price set,  but I only seem to get one of the discounts acting?

Am I missing something?

So I set up  3 discounts

Thanks or the reply lobo.

Thats a shame,  I'll have to find another way of doing what I need.

I have used different automatic discounts based on membership types but I am running under Drupal  6.25 (need to update and Civcrm 4.2.8 with Discount version 2.1)  - I create a different discount code for the different groups (i.e student members, regular members) that is hidden

The automatic discounts have been applied to line items in pricesets in Events (I have not tried for other pricesets in Membership/Contribution pages)

These have worked in conjunction with regular discount codes that are entered on the event page (i.e. 100% discount for an invited speaker) but only one will work.  i.e. if you apply the discount code that takes effect; if you do not apply the discount code and are logged in the member discount takes effect.  (having more than one would be great but wold open up lots of complications :-)

So this is possible, but may be a matter of configuration or versions :-)

hope this helps!

This is a nice module.  I am going to use it to discount event registration fees for a membership group, but I have run into a bit of a problem, and wouldn't mind some help debugging it (not sure where in the code this happens!)

So I have an Event Price Set with 2 fields, one a required Select field, the other an optional Checkbox field, for 5 items total. In Discount, it gives me the option to apply the discount to specific line items of the price set in question, so I add the 4 entries of the Select field, leaving the Checkbox unselected.  Pretty straightforward, exactly what the Admin interface appears to be designed for..

But on the Event registration page, all 5 price items are being discounted, including the one I did not select in the admin interface.

So either the admin interface selection box is not being parsed in the code upon submit, the registration page is not applying the discounted prices properly, or there's some kind of bug somewhere in between.

As far as I can tell the Admin just does this to actually save the admin page submit, there doesnt seem to be any special parsing in this function:
public function postProcess() {
 (stuff)
       $item = CDM_BAO_Item::add($params);
 (stuff)
}
