I have a module in which admin can assign discount to any product from backend. The discount would be in percentage
. There is a custom listing page where all the products will be listed having discount applied. My Magento version is 1.8
For example:
Product Price = 299
Discount Percent = 20%
Discounted Price = 239.20
I need to do the following:
- Show Discounted Price instead of Regular price on listing page for
all the products - Show Discounted Price instead of Regular price on product detail
page - When user add that product, discounted price should be shown in
cart, checkout and elsewhere - Pass discount percent i.e. 20 in hidden value from listing page to my
observer
I have followed few tutorials below but no luck.

Also, $item->getOriginalPrice()
does not return anything here on Magento CE 1.8
Moreover, which event to be used in order to get the Quote ID, as I am getting null
checkout_cart_add_product_complete
OR
checkout_cart_product_add_after
Please Help.
Thanks.

May be you need to re-write getFinalPrice() method and do not use attribute
special_price
at all? So it will show the right price in the listing, edit page, checkout easily.
