Can the actually applied early bird discount be displayed?
January 08, 2009, 05:01:59 am
I've setup an event with two tiers of early bird discounts.

So far that's all good and the prices are properly calculated, I'm just wondering if there is any way to show the actual price as what it is calculated from, e.g.
Price: $x ($a - $b early bird discount until <date>)
or similar.

I'm just asking because all people currently see is the price with the discount applied and would probably assume that to be the normal price. That kind of defeats the purpose of an early bird discount, and may result in people being miffed if they come back later and find that the price has changed.
Of course this can all be explicitly explained in the description text, but that's much more tedious to do, makes the text longer, and may be missed more easily, especially if/when people know about the event and just drop in to check the price.

TIA for any hints,

Ronald

You will need to modify the code to add this via code right now. An easier way might be to modify the Label of the amount field and let people know the discount at each level

Thanks for the tip with the label, lobo, that does just fine for now.  :)
