No way to display sales price if offering a discount on a category???

Recommended Posts

Site URL: https://www.lewisrossignolart.com/

My client wanted me to set up a sale on his site. I set up the sale via "discounts" under "commerce". The sale works once you get to the cart, but the sale price does not display on the category page or the product page. This essentially makes the feature useless as customers won't know items are on sale until they've already decided to buy. That's not how sales work. Squarespace informed me that the only way a sale price will display is if you put it on sale via the "edit product" page. That can't be right, can it? If you had hundreds of products you wanted to put on sale, it would take all day...and the same thing when you wanted to take them off sale. Somebody PLEASE help! Thanks in advance.

That is correct.

You can add sale prices by editing the prices for each product. Where a store only has a few products you can do this on a product-by-product basis from within Commerce > Inventory. If a store has a larger inventory you can automate the process by first exporting the products to a CSV file. You can then amend the prices in a spreadsheet (you can automate this using formulae) and then import the updated CSV file back into the site.
