First off thanks for the work on the program. It seems to be a great plugin. I have an issue, and cannot find the resolution. I am trying to add packages, or a CD package with 10 pictures.
I have setup the CD package with qty 10 digital images item on one line. In the photos you can pick 10 images and select CD, and it will show the full price of the CD 10 times in the cart. How do you get it to see it is one CD?
This is the same scenario when selecting 2 8×10 and 2 5×7 in a package. If you select four pictures it adds the package four times with the full price on the package.
I have looked on the site but cannot figure out how to get this working. Also if this is something basic can you also let me know how to mix two items sizes in one package, or it is designed to have 5 8×10 only as I do not see a way to select which item is what size.
thanks for the help.

There is no way in the plugin to set 10 images in a package and allow you to select 10 different images for that they have to all be the same image. Then when they buy the package you just take the amount and give them a print size for each listed in the package.
What i have requested as a wish list item would be the ability to select say 10 different images and when you click add to cart this would put each image on its own row each with a drop down to select the print size/ download in one pass.
If what i was requesting is implemented then perhaps you could have another menu option next to say favorites that said buy packages. which would then open a box to select the package of either prints or CD or both. Then that would open another container which would then have 10 lines with drop downs drop downs or something on each line allowing you to pick 10 different images.
Another way could be a buy packages screen which takes you to another gallery only this has some sort of counter that decrements each time that one picture is selected with a box saying like 9 out of 10 remaining each time you select an image. When 10 were selected it would say 0 remaining then you add to cart.
Wishful thinking but hey that’s how ideas and improvements are made.

Also is there anyway to have a promotion code automatically applied at checkout. If you want to give 20% off for 5 items, or more. Or do you need to post the code and get them to enter it when checking out.

The best way to handle the CD would be to just make the digital download price equal to the cost per image you want on a cd and then you have to have static amounts and apply % off to that.
So you can setup your business to say you get x number of images on a CD with a particular package. So in this example you have a 10 image cd package. You make each digital download set to 4$ per image. They would add 10 images to the cart and would equal 40.00. Then y0u supply a 20% off coupon for that and make the condition >= to say 39.00 this way they can not get the 20% off unless they purchase 40.00 worth. Then you could have another package and promotion for 20 images 80.00 and a promo of 30% off >= 79.99.
When they checkout they will get a digital download link for all the images and you would then get a order showing which images were purchased. You could then put those images on a cd and ship them to the client.
Basically you have to be flexible with the way you charge in order to make it work.

What do you think about my idea on the Packages.. it may not be that easy to implement but those are some of my thoughts.
