I'm trying to use discount codes, and entered my set of them (over 300) using the comma separated list. That went well; so I generated my add to cart buttons, then pushed the webpage. I had tested out adding to cart, added a discount code (a test one) and then closed the cart window. I had a friend test the add to cart page too - and she's already seeing a discount on her cart, when she hasn't even entered a valid code. I tried a different browser, and once I added an item to my cart, the discount was already there with "Current Promotion" as the name.



Why is the e-junkie cart applying a discount to her cart when she hasn't even entered the code?



Please please help! The discount I'm offering is fairly large, a one time use and unique to each user.

Update: I tried to complete the purchase to see if the discount code would go away. It didn't. I then deleted ALL of the discount codes in my account, and the discount in the cart finally went away. I verified the settings on the discounts too - they were set to require a min balance in the cart, one time use, etc.

Nancy, that will only happen if you already had a discount without any "code".



Those discounts apply automatically.

Hmmm.... I see how that happened now. Can you change the parser that reads in the comma separated discount codes to ignore empty strings? I had this: code1,code2,,,code3. so it must have read those commas with nothing in between them as 'empty' codes. When you're entering hundreds of codes, it will be really hard to find those that got entered as empty once they are in.



I'd also love a list view of discount codes and other settings in a table format to find those kinds of things easier. Thanks!!
