Thread: Show Coupon Discription

Is there a way to have the coupon description show up on the shopping cart page after the customer enters the coupon code?

I need this to show for special discount descriptions

It would take a little customization, but nothing too terribly complex.

First, add a literal to the shoppingcart.aspx page where you want it to display. Something like:

Code:

<asp:literal ID="coupondesc" runat="server" Visible="true"></asp:literal>

Then, in the codebehind, you'll need something like this to set the text value on the literal after the coupon is submitted:

Code:

coupondesc.Text = cart.Coupon.Description;

You'll probably want that in all the btnUpdate methods - btnUpdateCart1_Click, btnUpdateCart2_Click, etc

Thanks. I also needed this.

Want to try and use it to let the customer know the coupon was applied for free shipping, otherwise they do not see anything on the page to let them know the coupon applied.
