So, when upgrading an extension using a Github download, do I need to uninstall, or do I disable/replace code/enable, or something else?

Sorry, not sure what to do here.

Spun up a copy of the site, upgraded the discount module. Now the discount field doesn't show up on the civievent form and I get this error msg in the cividiscount config screen:

User error: Smarty error: [in CRM/CiviDiscount/Form/Admin.tpl line 138]: syntax error: expecting '=' after attribute name 'discounts' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 1591) in Smarty->trigger_error() (line 1094 of [sites/all/modules directory path]/civicrm/packages/Smarty/Smarty.class.php).

Edited to add: After creating one new discount, the error has gone away. But there is still no discount field on the event registration form (or membership form, which also has discounts). Ideas?

In my case it looks like if I enable the new field "Display a message to users not eligible for this discount?" any valid discount that could be entered gives the "not eligible" text. I'm wondering if there is something new or not working quite right with the eligibility calculator that is causing the discount code field to go away.

Any ideas?

I've upgraded to CiviCRM 4.4.5 and the 4.4 version you indicated. I've added start and end dates for discounts. I am using a price set with an early-bird discount applied only to conference registration, and discount codes one can enter manually for pre-conference session registration items in the price set.

I'm really confounded by this - we have an active site with the 2.5 version that shows the discount field and applies discount codes properly, but incorrectly applies any automatic discount codes to everything in the price set. And a copy of the site with your 4.4 version which correctly applies auto-discounts but doesn't show the discount code field and says a registrant is not eligible for any of the discount codes when the "display message" flag is checked.

We really want to use this module, but it's just not working correctly. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help!

Just to chime in here (I know it is an old topic) I just added cividiscount 3.0, enabled for an event and didn't specify a price set field.  The code would not apply to the total.  If I add the price set field it does add to the total.  Should the price set field be required?  I assumed that omitting it would apply to the total amount.  Will cross-post this on github.
