Hey Ryan, Lyle, Shawn, and Andy (the Uberdudes and Uberadmins),
I'd be interested to get your take on cYu's concept for the "Free Product" module as described in the thread above (and quoted below). I think this type of module is important... certainly free products are major part of marketing efforts on many of my own sites.
More specifically, does cYu's suggestion of hook_quote_order() and hook_tax_order() seem like a good approach?
Thanks,
Ben
1. Add a product feature "Free Product"
1a. Add conditions for this to be a free product (another product is in cart, order total is over a certain amount, B1G1)
2. In the cart, display product as normal but if conditions are met, set price to $0
3. In checkout, if only free products are in the cart, streamline the checkout
4. In checkout, if priced and free products exist, free products will have a price of $0 and won't affect shipping or taxes, but checkout will proceed as normal otherwise.
I think I can do everything except #4. I'll have to take a look at how discount and gift certificate mods do $0.00 total order processing too and probably tie some of that in with #3.
