Can't upsell if main product price = $0.00

[d_host]

I never thought of this, but apparently when you have a product that has a $0.00 pricetag, you cannot upsell other products that do have a price associated with them... If the main product has a non-zero price, upsell feature works fine (store running MM v4.24). Any ideas how to change this behavior and allow to upsell products with price when the main product in cart is free?

We have a client who just launched a great partnership with a national magazine this morning, and in the first few hours already had over 3000 orders pour in... mostly free (promotion), but trying to upsell some products that have a pricetag assigned, but have not been able to configure the upsale module to do it.

Ideas? Alternate upsale modules available for v4C?

well I use this also for our clients, but while we are at it, I fell upon this looking for some code for ... if the price is 0.00 then don't show it.


Thanks

I realize that this thread is extremely old, but I have the exact same question.

In our shop, we have about 30 products that are free. I would like to be able to offer a discount on some other non-free products when the customer checks out with these $0.00 products in their basket. Is there anyway around this, or will Miva never show an upsell option if the cart total is $0? If not, would Upsale Magic let me do this?

I haven't tried it but I'm thinking that maybe you can make the product .01c and do an instant coupon on it, that makes it zero, you could code it so that it is looking zero priced. After that I'm thinking that you could do an upsell. Good luck

You could hack this with Tool Kit/Tool Belt (we do it with a custom feature) but basically goes like this:

Place a test in the Basket Items list for the products you want to upsell
If found, set a flag
After basket, if flag exists, display the "upsell" by just putting the product info in. Them, after they put upsell item in the basket, set the flag to look for the upsell trigger item to false (so it doesn't show the upsell again). You then use a coupon type module to discount the price, or perhaps just another copy of the product you want to upsell with a different price. If you did the later, you'd hide the product in a price group.
