If you want to know the total qty of *all* items in the cart, you'd need to add them all up using [math]. Also, set the unitShipCost formula to 0.0, because you're going to be doing the whole calculation in shipCost instead.shipCost [math show=f]totalQty=[lineitems][quantity]+[/lineitems]0[/math][math][ShowIf [totalQty]>5]0*[/ShowIf]2.00[/math]>2. I want a discount of $5.00 to be taken from the total order when 2 or >more products are ordered, total. Where is the best place for me to code >this? In the formula.db under Price?This is a little harder. I suggest you create a new SKU in your product database, called Discount, with a price of -5.00, and on your invoice template put a [AddLineItem cart=[cart]&sku=Discount] inside a [ShowIf] based on how many products were ordered. This basically adds a new item to the end of your list of products, so make sure it can only happen once (usually doing it on the final invoice page is good enough).Technical Support | ==== eCommerce and Beyond ==== Pacific Coast Software | WebCatalog, WebMerchant, 11770 Bernardo Plaza Court | SiteEdit Pro, PhotoMaster, San Diego, CA 92128 | Typhoon 619/675-1106 Fax: 619/675-0372 | http://www.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
