Price Descriptor Mod - SOLD

[midi510]

{if $entry.prePrice == "SOLD"}
<font class="sold">SOLD</font>
{else}
{$entry.prePrice}
{/if}</td>

This only displays the sold class id SOLD is entered in all caps. Can I add "Sold" & "sold" to the if statement and what do I use for a separator?

KS,
Have moved this post to 'Modules 3.1' because it is a module question.

Try this and let us know how you got on.

{if $entry.prePrice == "SOLD" || $entry.prePrice == "Sold" || $entry.prePrice == "sold"}
<font class="sold">SOLD</font>
{else}
{$entry.prePrice}
{/if}</td>

Hi Chaslie,

I tried to post this in the modules sub-forum, but got a message saying I wasn't allowed.

Anyway, that didn't work, but this did. I included the whole block 'cause the listingprice|replace finishes this mod out perfectly for me. Just what I was looking for.

{if $viewprice=="Y"}
  <tr> 
  <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_PRICE}:</strong></td>
  <td>
  {if $prePrice == "SOLD" || "Sold" || "sold"}
   <font class="sold">SOLD!</font>
  {else}
   {$prePrice}
  {/if} 
  {$listingprice|replace:'$0.00':'<font class="sold">SOLD!</font>'} 
  {if $postPrice == "SOLD" ||  "Sold" || "sold"}
   <font class="sold">SOLD!</font>
  {else}
   {$postPrice}
  {/if}</td>

Take a look. http://www.mammothgoods.com/viewlisting.php?view=9

Good work and well done, KS. I'll be adding that to my own Price Descriptor mod. Thanks.

One more thing, I enclosed it in nobr tags to make sure smaller browser windows don't break it up. I don't know what the concensus is on nobr, but it works.

BTW, did you add this code to 'showlistings.tpl.php? I found a problem - check your listings and they are all being displayed as sold. I'll look into it in 30 mins - tied up at present.

Although in viewlistings.tpl.php, it is {if $prePrice == "SOLD" || "Sold" || "sold"}

In showlistings.tpl.php, it should be this {if $entry.prePrice == "SOLD" || "Sold" || "sold"} [but there is a problem with this one]

[midi510]

Yea, I found that too. I changed it back, but to "sold" just so I don't have to cap it. I don't know if I'm going to ask people to change their status to sold or ask them to e-mail me and do it myself.

I used it first in viewlisting(2). I really like the SOLD!SOLD!SOLD! in red. In showlinsing(2) I want no pre or post. I still kept the replace statement. The only issue I have now is I'll have to require a price entry or It will come up SOLD! If I can get rid of the price field for ads that don't need it I'm good.

Do you know if I can make it so if a field has no entry, the title doesn't show up. I'm trying to avoid creating separate viewlisting pages for announcements and such.

[Chaslie]

In default/checkout/step3.tpl.php, put this code at the start of your preprice, price and postprice table rows:

{if $checkoutDisPrice=="Y"}
{if $section == "24" || $section == "50"}
{else}

Then at the finish of these table rows, make sure you add a:

{/if}

Then if price is 'not required' for certain categories, the 3 fields will not be displayed. eg: Wanted to Buy category.

24 and 50 are category ID's that require price to be hidden - change these to match your site - add as many as you wish.

Now in viewlisting.tpl.php, do something like this:

{if $viewprice=="Y"}
<tr>
<td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_PRICE}:</strong></td>
<td>{if $prePrice == "SOLD" || "Sold" || "sold"}
<font class="sold">SOLD</font>
{else}{$prePrice}
{/if}
<font class="red">{$listingprice|replace:'$0.00':''}</font>
{$postPrice}</td>
</tr>
{/if}

That will make sure that for those categories that don't require price, then a $0 'will not appear'.

Thank you soooo much! I won't be able to work on this again until late tonight (Fri), but I'm happy I can get what I want without a horrendous amount of work.

Here is the fix for showlistings.tpl.php

It must be: {if $entry.prePrice == "SOLD" || $entry.prePrice == "Sold" || $entry.prePrice == "sold"}
NOT: {if $entry.prePrice == "SOLD" || "Sold" || "sold"}

Here is the fix for viewlistings.tpl.php

It must be: {if $prePrice == "SOLD" || $prePrice == "Sold" || $prePrice == "sold"}
NOT: {if $prePrice == "SOLD" || "Sold" || "sold"}
