Category Discount

Watch this tutorial to learn how to: Category Discount.

Steps in this tutorial

1. In this tutorial we will run a discount on a whole category, and see the difference between a real discount and a display-only one.
2. From the sidebar menu, click on Categories.
3. The Discount column shows which categories are already on sale, including a discount inherited from a parent category.
4. Let us open a category to set its discount.
5. The pricing options live under the Advanced tab.
6. Here is the Pricing section. It holds two different discounts, and it matters which one you pick.
7. The real discount lowers the price your customers actually pay. A sixty five product at ten percent sells for fifty eight and a half.
8. Customers who have their own special price keep it by default. Turn this on only if you want the sale to apply to them as well.
9. The display-only discount is different. It shows a higher crossed-out price beside the current one, but the customer still pays exactly the same.
10. This line always tells you what will actually apply, and names the category a discount was inherited from.
11. Now let us save the discount.
12. The discount is saved and now applies to every product in this category, and to its sub-categories unless they set their own.
13. Back on the list, the Discount column confirms the sale is running. Remember to clear it when the sale ends.
