updated documentation for version 3.0.0





We Changed the Plugin Name!

Major updates made us rename the plugin from "Surcharges" to "Article Surcharges and Discounts".

Important info for users of plugin versions lesser than 3.0.0

You will need at least Shopware 5.2 to install version 3 of this plugin. The plugin has been migrated to the new shopware plugin structure (/custom/plugins/MndAddChargeManager). The update routines of Shopware Plugin Manager should do all updates well. If you have issues, try deleting the old plugin directory under /engines/Shopware/Plugins/Community/Frontend/MndAddChargeManager and reinstall the new plugin version. (database configuration is not affected)

Our new plugin "MND Next Foundation" is required. It is free and needs to be installed for this plugin to work.

The smarty variables for the shopware productfeeds are no longer JSON encoded. Please find details in this documentation.

New Features in Version 3

  • Discounts! Surcharges can now have a negative value which makes them a discount.
  • Surcharges/Discounts can now be bound to selected article variants.
  • Tax auto mode makes the surcharge/discount inherit the vat rate of its linked article.
  • Linking surcharges/discounts is now possible via the edit window of an article.
